Another series that I own all of and wouldn't trade for anything. I grew up with Ma and Pa...not to mention half-pint!

This is one classic show that will live on just like "I Love Lucy" and other classic shows (Lucy is another favorite of mine). To say that this show went out with a bang is an understatement. I watched this show when it was originally run on NBC (I watched Monday nights at 8 p.m. on KNBC Channel 4 in Los Angeles). I have the entire series on DVD and am enjoying the series again.
It is too bad that there will probably not be a reunion of the Michael Landon version of Little House. Even though he is gone, I feel it could be done. His son Michael Landon Jr. is doing some family movies nowadays. He could direct. Also, the real Charles Ingalls died in 1902. Following the fact that the Little House series was based approximately 100 years in the past, it would stand to reason that the Michael Landon version of Charles Ingalls also passed away. As far as the rest of the cast participating, I remember watching the Little House mini-reunion on the Today Show. When asked if they would be interested in doing a reunion show, Alison Arngrim (who played Nellie Oleson) said "When do we start?". I am sure that she was echoing the sentiments of the rest of the surviving cast. Besides Michael Landon, the cast members who have passed on are Victor French (Mr. Edwards), Kevin Hagen (Doc Baker), and Dabbs Greer (Reverend Alden). Richard Bull and Katherine MacGregor are still living (they played Mr. and Mrs. Oleson). It would be an interesting movie if they did it, although I hear that somebody else owns the rights and that may be what is holding it up.

I liked the series, but I thought it was a last ditch desperate attempt to put these out. I just felt like they were made for almost no reason. Sorry but I would not buy this again if I had the choice.

As a huge fan of the Little House series and all of the characters on the show, I just found these movies to be too upsetting. Why did it have to end this way? It was just too much for me to take.
When something went wrong in the television series, there was always a light at the end of the tunnel... something wonderful that came out of the darkness. Here, in these movies, there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Only tragedy and sorrow. I really wish I'd never watched them. Maybe I identify too closely with the characters. The movies are certainly well written and may appeal to those who aren't so wound up in the series. If you'd rather remember Walnut Grove as it was however, I would encourage you to avoid these movies. The one exception (and the one DVD I really enjoyed in this last series) was the one in which they interviewed Melissa Gilbert. This DVD is definitely worth watching. Melissa gives us a very personal account of her relationship with Michael Landon and the effect this series had on her as a child and as a young adult.
