Determination, faith, and optimism are powerful forces that enable individuals to positively affect the lives of themselves and others. Christy, a captivating 1994 television series based on the book by Catherine Marshall and reminiscent of the Anne of Green Gables and Little House on the Prairie series, is the story of an idealistic 19-year-old woman named Christy Huddleston (Kellie Martin) who sets out for the wilderness of the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee in 1912 on a mission to educate the children of the remote community of Cutter Gap. A well-to-do girl raised in the city, Christy is shocked and completely unprepared for the extreme poverty, ignorance, and superstitious tendencies of Cutter Gap's people, but resolves to persevere in her commitment to better the lives of her young students. Each day brings a fresh lesson for the children and a new struggle that inspires Christy to draw upon and re-examine her own faith while striving to disprove local superstitions and replace long-held animosities and prejudices with virtues like forgiveness and respect. Christy is surrounded by a handful of allies in Cutter Gap that include fellow missionary Miss Alice Henderson (Tyne Daly), whom she idolizes for her strength, resolve, and mentorship; Fairlight Spencer (Tess Harper), a local woman who offers Christy the rare gift of friendship; mission preacher Reverend David Grantland (Randall Batinkoff), a hard worker who immediately becomes smitten with Christy; and local Doctor Neil MacNeill (Stewart Finlay-McLennan) whose gruff manner and atheistic beliefs both confuse and excite Christy. Eventually, Christy finds she's fallen in love with both Reverend Grantland and Doctor MacNeill and embarks on a very personal journey toward maturity while simultaneously succeeding in her quest to educate the children of Cutter Gap and affect significant positive change throughout the entire community.

The Christy Series Review October 30, 2008
RIKKI (INDIANA, USA)
We watched this series when it first came on TV and we all loved it. We've never seen it in stores and recently I was on amazon.com and found it for sale. I thought my mom would really like it for her birthday and she did. The DVD's were in brand new conditioned as stated online, and they all played perfectly with excellent quality. The price was fair that I paid for and I am extremly happy with my purchase from the seller.

Excellent videos and we are enjoying the Christy episodes. Only problem is that the disks are not marked in any way, so one must find out by trial and error which is side A and which is side B for each disk and then label them accordingly.

Abigail (Petaluma, Ca)
The pilot and first half of this series is exceptional. It captures that magic of the book way beyond my expectations. My husband even liked it. The second half of the season took on a life of it's own and they must have been running out of material as the episodes became obviously preachy with good messages about racism, logging and other weighty issues. They are good messages but a little too obvious and less magical. Still, it's a fine series and I would recommend it to anyone who is tired of sex, violence and crudeness dominating the TV air ways.
Great Series!!! July 29, 2008
