Jason is always “level headed” and so respectful of everyone. A quite type, not “hot headed” like some of the siblings, always shows love to parents, grandparents and brothers and sisters. He seems to be very good hearted and extremely well mannered, works hard and his character shows deep love for music. Just the kind of son everyone would want. Has a beautiful smile!

He stands up for what he believes in even when it is unpopular. He’s not afraid to be just who he is. — Jason Walton.

I have appreciated all the characters, but at this time I seem to favor Jason. I appreciate his gentle nature and quiet pursuit of his interests without a self-centered attitude.

Jason is the sensitive musician. I love music, especially the music played on the show. The traditional, folk and bluegrass are my favorites. I currently live in Virginia, due to a military transfer, and the roots of this music run deep here. I can never get enough of the segments where Jason is playing an instrument and singing. I also appreciate what a hard worker Jason is. He works for what he wants and pursues his art. I write song lyrics myself and am trying to learn the guitar on my own. Many of the people that I spend time with are folk musicians. Jason represents that world very well. Of course, his character comes off as a sweet kid, who is well mannered and treats people right. I like that.

His passion for music….he tried to relate music to all areas of his life. No matter what the problem or crisis, music always fit into whatever was going on.

I like Jason because of his level headedness. He is good at controlling his temper. I also like Jason for his musical talent.

I always thought of Jason as my favorite Walton because he was the big brother I wished I could have. He wasn’t “in charge” like John-Boy, so he didn’t have to be bossy. But he was always there to talk to and he cared about his family. He let his feelings show through his music and his kindness and tenderness. I always liked music and thought how cool it would be to sit and talk to him about music. I actually saw this contest yesterday and was thinking about my answer but my daughter and I were going to Disneyland for the day so I didn’t have a chance to enter. Then guess who we saw, and I got my picture taken with!!! The very one I always admired! Jon Walmsley. It made my day complete!

I like the way he follows through with his music. He has learned at a young age to commit himself to what he loves. He is willing to work at it, and include others. He is very thoughtful of others; he is the kind of boy a mother would want her daughter to bring home. It was hard to choose a favorite Walton they are all special in their own way. Jason has light that shines from his heart that gives others a special feeling.

Because he’s very talented and has a level head when it comes to everyday living. When Grandpa Walton was in the hospital and Jason sang to him brought tears to my eyes.

Love his music!! And he never seemed to mind the he wasn’t the oldest. His special relationship with Grandma was so heartwarming. Jon Walmsley captured the character perfectly!
