A fate that happens

This is a very special five dvd set of Little House.If you enjoyed all the nine seasons that was on tv you will love this. I do recomend you watch the nine seasons first and the viewer will get a good understanding of this collectors edition. Its very warm ,sad indeed,and frustrating. Fate is a funny word to all these three movies that I saw. The first one is the story of Albert whos future is backed off when he wants to become a doctor is encounterd of a physical problem. The second one is when something happens to Amonso and Lauras little daughter Rose when they by acidently leave it behind. The last one called the last Farewell is the ending of what happens to a town we all loved seeing becomes taken away. Its a real unplesant feeling when you put these three movies together. But it tells you something what could happen with out knowing. The packaging of the box set is really nice. Good photgraphs of the characters. It opens really nice.Comes with two bonus DVDS theres a quiz of Multiple choice questions to test your knowledge.There tricky! You should think of the questions sometimes twice before answering. But there fun. I do recomend this set to all the Little House Fans.You will also love the interview of Melisa Gilbert very well presented how she talks about the program.Im glad I ordered this set it sure gave me memmories .

Final Farewell

It's a shame they had to blow up the town but at least the last piece of the series fits. August 29, 2008

Great Movie

I wouldn't be without it, I have the complete boxed 9 series set plus the premire. They are all so good never missed them when they were on TV now I can watch them anytime. Good for family watching. Adventureous, Happy, Funny and Sad. I would recommend this movie. Love it!! July 14, 2008

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! June 26, 2008

An Explosive End To A Wonderful Series

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. April 20, 2008
