Little House on the Prairie

I confess that the first time I sat down and watched this show, I thought it would be lame. However, after watching a few episodes, I found myself to be drawn to it. Many people today wouldn't like the show because it has values. Instead they like smut like "Temptation Island" and crap like that. Shows like this with class and emotion are rare to say the least. I love this show and I think everyone who would take an hour out to watch it, would feel the same.

I'm nearly 40 years old, I love Little House on the Prairie. I didn't watch too much of it 20 years ago, but totally enjoy watching 2 hours every week-day morning. I actually set my clock to wake up during the summer months, so I don't miss any shows, even though I've seen them all several times. It is a clean show. I say by far, this is my favorite show on tv.

I would love to see a 2000 reunion with all the surviving cast members. I think the Oleson's are pretty cool people. I love the on-going "fussing" with the Ingall's & the Oleson's. I truly hope they don't take this show off the air.

Little House on the Prairie - what a great show! Yeah it may be a little cheesy, with a few thousand too many shots of Laura Ingalls wearing ever-present braids and petticoat running away from some shocking news, but still, a very feel-good show. It's nice to watch a show that doesn't rely on nudity or fist-fights to be entertaining. All around a fun show, with good characters, interesting plotlines, and hey where else can you hear the famous Nelly Olsen screech!

I've never sat through a complete episode of Little House on the Praire, but my wife, Michelle, is an addict. She watches the show in syndication constantly. She watches back to back one hour episodes from 9 :00 AM - 11:00 AM several days a week.

She swears by Little House. She thinks that it is one of the best television series ever made. She's told me all about the Ingalls and the life that they live. She actually has the original books that the show is based on. Who even knew there were books. She claims that she has the books. Actually, she said that her father has the books in storage, but he might have misplaced them.

The bottom line is very simple. If my wife thinks this show is that great, it has to be a phenomenal series.

We give it two thumbs up.

I was a Junior in High School when this show premiered on NBC. A number of us were discussing the new shows on TV and everyone was in agreement that this one would probably not last long even though it seemed to be very well written and done. Well how wrong we all were. Even now years after it has gone off the air the episodes are still great to watch. Some shows just never go out of style. Little House on the Prairie is one of those shows.
