If you wanted to put two famous titles together, the wholesome TV series “The Waltons” and the revealing men’s entertainment magazine Playboy probably wouldn’t be the first pair that come to mind. “The Waltons” were introduced to television in 1971 via the made-for-TV movie “The Homecoming: A Christmas Story,” as noted by IMDb. A year later, the series kicked off, premiering on September 14, 1972. A staple on primetime television, “The Waltons” aired on the CBS network from 1972-1981, with a total of 212 episodes (via IMDb). Centered around a family living in Virginia during the 1930s and 1940s — according to Warner Bros. Entertainment — the show tells the tales of the Walton family, including parents Olivia and John, along with their seven children.
Playboy has a long history, debuting its first issue in December 1953 with Marilyn Monroe as the cover girl according to InStyle. The publication featured a bevy of beautiful women over the years, in various stages of undress, including stars like Drew Barrymore, Cindy Crawford, Barbra Streisand, Madonna, and even Marge Simpson. But you might not realize that one of the children from “The Waltons” also posed for the magazine.
