@peggyroane2092last year Favorite star was Mr. Edward's. That special Christmas show was the best. It still makes me cry when I watch it. Of course, Michael Landon was wonderful and so multi talented. Loved him on his show Highway to Heaven. Along with Mr. Edward's. Both passed to young. ... 13

@

@stevencoffeen6684last year My great grandmother lived in Burr Oak, Iowa when the Ingalls were living there. She was the same age as Laura. While I can assume that they may have known each other, I am still trying to prove that they did. I will be visiting Burr Oak, this year, for "Laura Ingalls Wilder Days" at the end of June to see what else I can learn. ... 14

@

@doegirl5246last year I started watching Little House on the Prairie when I was like 8-9 yrs old,I was born in 76 so I wasn't around when it came out. I loved that show and my favorite Actor was Michael Landon. May he R.I.P 6
@

@beachgirl6565last year Michael Landon was my favorite character on every show he played in. 14
@

@notmywayYHWHlast year Mrs Olsen was by far my favorite because she was a superb actress! No one made a character more alive than she did & deserved much more recognition than she got. I also grew up passionately in love with "Albert" Matthew Labyortaux & was my longest standing crush, even beyond Johnny Depp who was my 2nd. ❤❤ ... 18

@

@JustMe-vo9bqlast year When this first aired, I watched it and loved everything about it.. especially the wonderfully talented actors. Each story had a moral message. I couldn’t wait for my daughter who was only two, to become old enough to watch it.. and when she did we watched together.. ... 29
@

@evangelinamartinez7040last year I couldn't pick a favorite. I really love all of them not only as actors but as reg. People. I totally miss this kind of shows. They were so simple & had lessons to learn. Love it ALWAYS. 20
@

@taminotthoff8254last year I liked them all, it was my favorite show growing up.❤ 12
@

@teresasmith2415last year Like others , I too started watching Little House on the Prairie when it first came out & I still watch reruns of it. Too bad we don’t have shows like this anymore, it had morals & respect that related to all unlike the shows of today. I never really had a favorite character bc each person brought something to the show that I could relate to. Bless them all for giving & entertaining us with their emotions on the show & Bless those that we loved & lost from the show. They will always be remembered in our hearts. ❤️ & 🙏s ... 79

@annahenson2961last year Laura & Charles. I cried like a baby when he died. He was my role model 7
@

@kristarrahlee359511 months ago God bless Michael Landon for the legacy of this show. I grew up watching 'Little House on the Prairie,' own it on DVD and have watched it all from the pilot movie, through each episode of every season, to the last movies that were made multiple times. It still comes on the Hallmark Channel every day; and most days, I watch it still. It's such a wholesome show, heart-touching, and just beautifully done. Every family should watch this show together. It teaches the morals and values that are timeless and so needed in our society today. ... 9

@

@kizpawslast year This series was such a gem, every character was intriguing and fun to watch and identify with. What amazes me is how well all the children actors did with acting and delivering lines! They were so young yet so professional!
I think that my favorite character would have to be Harriet Oleson, as I am sure that everyone has met a Harriet in their life, lol! That actress played the part magnificently! ... 66

@

@lvreddi1last year Michael Landon has always been one of my very favorite actors. Dobbs Greer has always been a favorite, spanning many years. Merlin Oleson has been a favorite, going back to his football days. Last but not least, Victor French stole my heart, after watching him in many different roles. I love and thank them all and miss them so much. May they rest in peace, and may they know the love and gratitude of so many. ... 11

@lindaraterink645111 months ago Catherine McGregor is my absolute favorite. Fantastic actrice. 2
@

@zhilabehdar6985last year I look at this series when I need peace of mind and to accept that good people may still exist and it is possible to live well and simply. In today's serials, you can't see or learn anything except sex, betrayal, hatred and murder. ... 10

@StellaLive-le9hflast year A picture of her now would be nice, instead of the body of someone unknown. Stay true to these great actors. She is beautiful and always will be. ❤ 4
@

@dorisandujar8277last year I love this show so much and all the stars in it. So sad that many are no longer with us, like Michael Landon. I was a fan of his on Bonanza. Now I'm 66 years old and still love watching reruns, it's a very family oriented show, nothing can compare to it. I don't watch anything on current TV, I like the old shows. They were wholesome and pure enjoyment. ... 28
@

@maryasmith772111 months ago The show was good & great morals too. I liked all of them. Wish we had more shows like Little House On The Prairie 2
@

@michaelhughes7718last year Victor French and Michael Landon, both starred together in Highway to Heaven and it was the last show for both actors, both died coincidentally of lung cancer two years apart 😢 damn sad. 11

@

@aprilblossom9268last year Can't believe Caroline is 81 Karen Grassle and she still looks pretty. I read somewhere that her Mother called her ' miracle baby'. She really played the part well - as did they all. I still watch my DVD sets even though probably know every word! ... 7

@antonrubiano7532last year Watching this series gives me a feeling of peace, quiet, simplicity, and order. Reminiscing life in the 70’s when people were still God fearing and respectful.😢 9

The easiest thing in the world to do would be to love someone like her. A beautiful, beautiful lady and still is x. ...

@cgee686711 months ago I remember reading an interview with one of the kids on this show and how nice Michael Landon was to the kids on the show. 3
@

@beverlyhill9947last year LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE WAS SUCH A POSITIVE SHOW IN THAT THE VALUES THAT WE ALL CHERISHED WERE ALL CLEARLY SHOWCASED IN EACH OF THE CHARACTERS. IT WAS A LOVELY WAY TO SHARE TIME WITH FAMILY, WATCHING THE FAMILY COMMUNITY OF "LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE." CHILDREN TODAY HAVE NO CLUE OF THE VALUES THAT WE ALL UNDERSTOOD THAT WERE A PART OF OUR GROWING UP YEARS AND INTO ADULTHOOD AND STILL EXISTS FOR MANY OF US, DESPITE THE VERY SAD STATE OF OUR COUNTRY, OUR WORLD. GOD WAS VERY MUCH A PART OF THIS SERIES. THE WRITERS DID NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHO MIGHT GET OFFENDED IF ONE USED A CERTAIN WORD...COMPARE AND CONTRAST THAT WORLD OF YESTERYEAR AND THE WAY CHILDREN ARE GROWING UP TODAY, IN A WORLD THAT IS EVOLVING SO FAST, OUR HEADS KEEP TRYING TO KEEP UP...THERE IS MUCH GOOD WITH THE TECHNOLOGY OF TODAY...BUT THERE IS THE DARK SIDE AS WELL. THE CHILDREN ON LITTLE HOUSE, UNDERSTOOD WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO BE A CHILD, TO CLIMB A TREE, TO GO FOR A WALK, TO GET DRESSED UP FOR CHURCH, TO APPRECIATE A SMALL GIFT THAT WAS A HUGE TREASURE...AS MONEY WAS NOT A FOCUS...JUST TO LIVE WITH NEIGHBORS, THE COMMUNITY, THE CHURCH IN HARMONY AND PEACE...AS MUCH AS ANY HUMANS BEINGS COULD DO, BEING HUMAN. THOSE MEMORIES ARE SO PRECIOUS TO ME AND WILL NEVER FADE IN VALUE NOR TIME. THANK YOU FOR THIS UPDATE. IT IS SAD TO HAVE LOST MANY OF THE CAST SO YOUNG. "CHARLES INGALL" OF CANCER AND OTHER CAST MEMBERS. THIS WAS A GIFT TO WATCH THIS POR PRESENTATION. I FELT WARMTH AS I WATCHED THIS VIDEO. I WILL NOW LOOK INTO PURCHASING SOME OF THE EPISODES OF LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE. THANK YOU, KINDLY FOR THE WORK THAT WENT INTO THIS VIDEO!~~WARMLY AND BLESSED WITH MEMORIES, BEV~~ ... 6

@evabetlyon2693last year I love this series ..at least once a year I watch it again..so does my son..the values that this show taught was amazing..in my home I don't watch regular TV..there's nothing on that isn't garbage..and its getting harder and harder to find actors/actresses that are worth watching..unfortunately celebs have decided to follow evil ..so I keep whittling down who I will watch..going back to the classics is my solution for now.. ... 11

@margiechavez7118last year Micheal played a good father and he puts a lot of feeling in his acting 4
@

@michaelsadams524last year I grew up on Little House In The Prairie. I not only watched the television series; I read all the books as well. It is hard to pick a favorite chartacter because all of them were excellent in portraying their respective characters. That being said, the 2 that really stand out to me the most are Melissa Gilbert as Laura and Michael Landon as Charles Ingalls.
What is really special about these 2 is that not only did they stand out in the characters they portrayed, they were not type cast into them. They were quite successful in other roles as well. We often hear of actors and actresses who become identified with a particular character they portrayed that they are not able to go into other roles. But this was not the case with Melissa Gilbert and Michael Landon.
I do remember when Michael Landon became ill and passed away at the age of 54. I, along with many more of his fans, was deeply saddened by his passing. It is wonderful, however, that even though he is gone his legacy lives on. ... 22
@

@JaelAlbani7 months ago I grew up on this show!!! I LOVE LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRY! All the characters are great but I think I loved Held Olsen and Mary Ingalls the best
@

@jennie2921last year Good clean show with morals and values parents can watch with there children. To show my age, the most violent thing we watched for kids , was Road Runner. 4
@

@kallikantzaros444411 months ago This show was my favorite when I was a kid back in the 70's and it still is cause my country's national television is still showing it every Sunday afternoon! It was dubbed at the time of its first airing with dialogues in my language and that's a bit annoying cause I never heard the real voices of the participants, it was a common practice back then it was cheaper than subtitles gave work to many unemployed actors/actresses and I guess brought the Ingalls family closer to us! ... 2

@user-ld4bx4lw1p11 months ago I didn't watch 1 episode until a few years ago. I was born the same year as Melissa Gilbert (1963). I thought it was a girly show when I was growing up. So I never bothered watching. Out of curiosity, I watch the 1st episode a few years ago and I was hooked from the start. It's 1 of the few series's that I love every episode. I'm rewatching it now. Im half way through season 2. ... 3
