In an exclusive new interview with Closer Weekly, The Waltons star Michael Learned, 79, shares her thoughts on rebooting the iconic show, which recently celebrated its 45th anniversary. "Roseanne is fabulous but… I’m old," she tells Closer, adding that she doesn't expect a reboot of the 1972 to 1981 drama.

Still, time hasn't diminished the impact of the cast's bond. "We get together and have the best time," she reveals. "I had drama in my personal life," Michael recalls, "but as a working family we were great friends — and we're family now."
