This show is wonderful. Based on Louisa May Alcott's book "Little Men", the sequel to "Little Women", this show takes place in Concord, Massachusetts. Jo Bhaer runs a school for boys, which is in financial trouble, so she starts accepting girls.
As an hour-long drama, "Little Men" is very much in the vein of "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" and "Road to Avonlea". Well written and acted, kids and parents should enjoy this show together.

Little Men is one of my favorite shows. It is good for your whole family to watch. There is Romance, Adventure, and Excitement in every episode. It truly is a one of a kind show!
I was a fan of the book ever since third grade, so of course I had watched the movie, read the sequel, and then watched the television show. It was a good show in itself, and now as an adult I still enjoy the show. My only real problem with it was that it didn't follow the book. The first time I saw it, I was so disappointed that I turned it off. But that's coming from a girl who owns a first addition of the book. But after time I decided to give it a try again and ignored the book (kind of like what you have to do with the Harry Potter movies). I found the series wonderful! It was clean cut and something that everyone could enjoy, just the right amount comedy to keep everyone going. It is truly enjoyable! Clean and wonderful!
As always, there are some disappointments from this show. But, as I reflect upon all the shows these days, and upon this show, I know there is a big difference. Can you watch without guilt a show where morals and truth are forgotten? Some can, but I know I would rather watch a good show that everyone in the family can enjoy and feel good about watching. Little Men is one of the cleanest shows, and while some connect clean with boring, Little Men is nothing near boring. Even my parents and older brothers and sisters like to watch the show. The show is romantic, emotional, wholesome (for the most part), and adventurous.
I am really enjoying this 1998/1999 series, from two decades ago. Wished it had ran alot longer. Each episode has multi-stories that all blend for a good ending. Jo's character portrayal is priceless. Again, I wish there had been many more.
