  • The Heartland Series is your personal journey through all the wonder that makes the Smoky Mountains unique. Featuring spectacular videography from all seasons, The Heartland Series also captures the human spirit that resides here. You will meet the descendants of the earliest pioneers; the people who lived secluded for years and developed an originality apparent today. It’s a journey you will want to take again and again.

    Look forward to more volumes of The Heartland Series coming to UA-cam in the near future! There are more than 30 volumes in all with episodes from the mid-1980s to the late 2000s.

    One of the hallmarks of my childhood. WBIR and Bill Landry's soothing tones educating me every time I visited the Smokys. Glad it's digital now. I can share with my own children.

    My great grandfather was on this show a few times. I would do anything to get ahold of those tapes/videos. I didn't see him in this volume his name was Roscoe Stinnett. He was a trapper/hunter and was also on an episode talking about humming birds when him and Bill Landry happened to come across a hummingbird nest neither had even seen before. Pretty cool stuff you don't see shows like this anymore.

      I’m a Tennessean from generations and I love how we keep our history and don’t forget who we are. It’s a dignified thing. Up north, they threw their past away long ago and today know nothing about it. So yes we are unique in that matter

    These are precious memories for me. This was before WBIR went blatantly liberal in their reporting. They are no longer “straight from the heart,” but at least we have these videos to remind us of better times.

    She wanted to find her ancestors. Being a dutiful husband I agreed and we found the stones that marked her family lay in Cades Cove. I found her in the mid point of the last century. She graduated from a tiny school. Her grandmother taught in a one room school in NC. Talked with her grandmother. Courted her, the daughter. Married her. She could do anything she set her mind too. Her skills were not enough: author, designer, mother, lover. I had to lay her to her rest up high in the Balsams (Great Smokys) after 60 years married. Lord, I miss her, please let me see her again.

    It's funny how people accepted the time-lines and bending rocks so readily back in the 80s.
    I'm glad scientific research has advanced enough to disprove such notions.

    Wow.. what an unusually cruel act. Take a bear and hold it as prisoner and take away being a bear from it for a couple of months. And then make it love and trust you. And then commit the ultimate betrayal. If you're hungry and have no choice but to eat a bear...fine. but, that old man isn't sweet...his stories are cruel and I wish he'd starved and spared the bears. I hate mean people.
