One of the best of the family-oriented shows of the 1970's
It had some very touching moments.
Who remembers Laura Ingalls and Nelly Oleson ?

OMG!!! That was my mothers favourite show - she never missed an episode - even if it was a meeting night we'd all get to stay home (loved it when the shows were on a Tuesday or Thursday night). We could hardly get through a show without crying.

I do Blessed Star! I agree that was great T.V and very wholesome.
As a child I read all the Laura Ingalls Wilder books.
I think they were rather influential in my life.
Now I live in the little house in the big canyon!
My little chihuahua girl has to play the part of Laura -

This amazing show! It displays such moral character and family love.

I liked the books more than the show, but we watched the show too.

Ahhh, the little house series. Loved the books especially. When I was a teenager, a gal that was studying at the hall lent me a series of books by the author Janet Oke. At first I was a little weirded out because they were "Chrisitian Books," very similar to the Laura Ingalls series, but with a few more episodes of "thanking god." Funny thing is, when I read them, I thought, "This is how the witnesses should be. Hard working, big into family, helping each other raise a barn (or today's equivilant), not dogmatic or demanding that others share their crazy brand of faith". I was only 15, and I didn't leave the borg till I was 31. I'm a slow learner . Gotta love the Ingalls/Wilder gang!

This was Rachel's (Princess) absolute favorite show when she was little. She even was allowed to watch it on the color TV when Monday Night Football was on. Her Dad never let the boys win that battle.
I think she still watches the reruns. I always thought Rachel and Melissa Gilbert looked quite a bit alike too.
