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. (Ages 9 and older) --Tami Horiuchi Based on the bestseller by Catherine Marshall, Christy tells the story of an idealistic nineteen year old (Kellie Martin) who leaves the comforts of her city home to teach school in the impoverished Appalachian community of Cutter Gap, Tennessee in 1912. Strength, determination, and faith guide young Christy Huddleston through unforeseen difficulties, help her to gain understanding of the proud mountain people, and win her mentorship, friendship, and the love of two men. Review: Best Appalachian Series of All-Time - The story is based upon the novel 'Christy,' which has sold more than 10 million copies. It is a mix of fact and fiction about a teenager who is inspired by her church to set foot on a mission in East Tennessee, to teach children. It's set in 1912, and as Christy puts it, when arriving in the cove, it was like going back in time. The area is more shocking than she ever imagined. She was to teach children in a poverty-stricken area. Most of the school children were so poor they couldn't even buy shoes. The story also incorporates a minister trying to teach in the same church/schoolhouse and dives into the troubles that face the families there. The biggest fictional part is the addition of the Doctor. There was not one in this particular area of East Tennessee. There's a romantic yet silent and friendly fight between the minister and doctor to gain Christy's love. I confirmed with the last living relative in the cove that Christy did indeed walk 7 miles on foot from the train station just to get to the mission house. There were no roads at the time. The first season is gritty but still certainly family-friendly, while the second season lightens up a bit by incorporating some comedy. It's a fun fact to note that every structure was built by hand in the series, as not one Hollywood studio set was used. There are some sweeping views of the Great Smoky Mountains in the background of many scenes. Some viewers may be put off by the ending since it's a cliffhanger. That being said, if you want family-friendly, Appalachia, and romance, I think you're making a huge mistake if you don't buy it. I've added my photos of the DVD set. Hoping for a Blu-ray soon. Review: Overlooked classic - This series is way too often underrated, and overlooked. Sort of like Twin Peaks, it had a short airing season, but over the years, has acquired quite a large cult following. Unlike Twin Peaks, however, it did not have the same success in reviving the show: if you fall in love with this series, please do not watch the 3 mini-movies made in 2000. Unfortunately, they only brought back one of the original main actors, and it's just horribly written and acted. But anyways, this is about the tv show, and it's a WONDERFUL show. In todays world, it actually might have done much better had it been given the chance to premiere on a Netflix or Hallmark channel. However, in the early 90s, there was not that choice. It premiered on ABC, and lasted two seasons. The fact that it was an hour-long show did not sit well with viewers, and it didn't help that it was a Christian-oriented show. That just CAN'T be shown on a major network... Anyways, it is important to mention that while the show is Christian-oriented, it's really not Bible-thumping, in-your-face about it. It asks honest questions about faith that anyone might ask. It's interesting to watch the show deal with God and social issues--poverty, race...I think maybe the neatest thing is watching the show's two main male characters, Dr. MacNeill (a man of science), and Reverend Grantland (a man of the church), have their quarrels. It's really quite relevant for today's world, though it is set in 1912. Like I said, I think we all would be a lot happier if this show had the chance on Netflix or the Hallmark Channel, and it probably would have gone on for more than two seasons. For now, we'll just have to bask in the gloriousness of these two seasons--it's wonderfully written, thought-provoking, has great actors that fit the characters to a tee, and beautiful music. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 901 Reviews | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Romance - **Format:** NTSC, Multiple Formats, Subtitled, Color, Dolby, Dubbed - **Contributor:** (function(f) {var _np=(window.P._namespace("DetailPageProductOverviewTemplatesJava"));if(_np.guardFatal){_np.guardFatal(f)(_np);}else{f(_np);}}(function(P) { P.when('A').execute(function(A){ A.on('a:truncate:po-attribute-truncate-2:updated', function(data) { var isTruncated = !data.truncateInstance.getIfTextFits(); var seeMoreElement = document.getElementById('po-attribute-see-more-id-2'); if(seeMoreElement) { seeMoreElement.style.display = isTruncated ?

I decided to buy the whole series since it was such a reasonable price for 907 minutes worth of film in the collection! When I first started watching it I had to watch practically every episode in a row since I was so curious and interested in what happened next. I still am completely addicted and watch it over and over again. A true classic I would recommend to anyone. I think it's so great to actually be able to watch quality movies and television series that are garbage free. So much on television and the theater is not worth the time watching anymore. So if you are looking to expand your collection of movies/tv series collections that promote good morals and values, definitely consider this well developed mini series! **Side Note: Now I am reading the Christy book which is EXCELLENT! I noticed there are several differences in the book as in the series; however I still find the book to be very interesting and intriguing! Both are good in their own way. I also purchased the 3 Christy movies: Return to Cutter Gap, A Change of Seasons, and A New Beginning. All are excellent, especially if you are curious to see a continuation of the mini series and good quality movies. Many of the characters are different, so it took some getting used to a different face and personality playing the parts. ## Frequently Bought Together - Christy - The Complete Series - Christy - Return to Cutter Gap [DVD] - Christy - A Change of Seasons [DVD] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2876302-christy-the-complete-series](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2876302-christy-the-complete-series) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
