Spencer's Mountain was the inspiration for the TV show The Waltons which aired between 1972 and 1981. If you ever watch the film you will hear the whole family saying good night to each other when the lights are put out just as they annoying did in the show.
O'Hara had three husbands; one was Pan Am pilot Captain Charlie Blair. Part nostalgia, part OK/Hello generation and part the disappointing TV drama which lacks any drama we have a renewed interest in 91 year old Miss OHara. She married Captain Blair in 1968 and ten years later was a widow when he died in a plane crash which he had piloted.
Most recently I saw her playing Mum (what else?) in Only the Lonely (1991), she co starred with the late John Candy.
I wonder if she will ever appear as a passenger in Pan Am? Please! the show could really do with at least one interesting character!
