Critical reception[edit]

The New Land received almost universal acclaim from critics, many of whom compared it favorably with the hit series The Waltons.^[5]^[6] In the Los Angeles Times, reviewer Cecil Smith wrote that The New Land 'seems to catch the rich, grainy earthiness of pioneer life, of clawing a living out of the hard land with the same effectiveness The Waltons mirror the Depression.'^[5]
