martin-90435 It was great in the first season. Their story lines were warm, touching and showed the closeness of the family. They made the mistake in the second season of making the stories hard edged and the fun went out of the series. The cast replacement of the youngest daughter added to my disappointment. Kristy was good but no match in acting ability for the original cast member.
herbie10 Some interesting recollections about APPLE'S WAY. One comment: Regarding the Sunday-night "deathslot" for this program … as APPLE'S WAY aired on CBS, it would not have been "clobbered" by 60 MINUTES, if only because 60 MINUTES was also a CBS program. Also—per Alex McNeil's TOTAL TELEVISION book (second edition, 1984)—60 MINUTES became a regular Sunday-at-7 p.m. show starting in the fall of 1975, a year _after_ APPLE'S WAY launched (60 MINUTES had various time slots before fall 1975). As for the show itself, I have vague recollections of watching the first few episodes. My family were fans of THE WALTONS, and no doubt that's why we gave APPLE'S WAY a look. But, also no doubt, APPLE'S WAY suffered in our home—and in many others—from airing opposite hour two of THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF Disney on NBC. For what it's worth.
Ripshin Hamner basically ripped off his own "The Waltons" creation, for this "contemporary" variation, with a liberal flair. YouTube currently has the opening credits - check out the link provided in the menu for "clips."So many of the questions arising in these comments are clearly answered by IMDb, such as dates of broadcast, length of series, etc. Obviously, "Apple's Way" was a mid-season replacement series, that started in Feb. of 1974, and ended its run in Jan of 1975."The Tree" episode sticks out in my mind, but then again, it was the first episode aired.I didn't realize that Kristy McNichol replaced another actress, as she is the only person I remember in the role.Trivia note: Lorimar also produced something called "Second Chances" in the early 90s, and Ronny Cox and Lee McCain once again played spouses for a few episodes.
Ravenswing Good heavens, I remember this show! Vividly. All too vividly ... (of the three times I saw it this piece of swill, one was a repeat of another, which hammered home the show's true awfulness) If at age 15 I found this show to be a clichéd, treacly waste of film, goodness knows what the average discriminating adult would think.In the interests of cinematic duty, though, I subsequently saw a couple of eps on TV Land -- alright, I plead insomnia. And what in the hell were they thinking? Look, any show that replaces a key character before a full season's been concluded is in big trouble, and the plots were of the sophomoric quality that plays on Nickelodeon, without Nick's usual production values.(Yes, that is saying something.)1/10.
