I really liked the theme music on Little House - I think I liked the music during the closing credits as much or more than I did the opening music. -

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Keith. Don't know where you get all this great tv and movie music but I'm glad you do. Brings back some wonderful memories of better days. -
the music in the closing credits is always associated with a happy ending as well

When I lived with my sister right after high school, we always sat down and watched this together - a cable channel had at least 2 episodes a day, and I did enjoy it. As it was said, though, I have to agree that they don't compare with the books (but what does, really?), but the show was fun just the same. And I don't think I could imagine anybody else as Charles. Michael Landon was wonderful.

i still sit down and watch this now when i want to be transported back - can never get too much of the olesons or dr baker - such a happy programme

I watched the show a few years ago in Austria and I liked it, allthough it´s a little "sugary" and the world of the Ingalls is too happy and wonderful (there was another show with Michael Landon "Highway to Heaven" I would say the same about it...). But sometimes it´s nice to escape in a fictional world like this one for one hour.
My favourite seasons where 1-3 as Laura was young. As the child grew up, I think, the show lost some of its charme. And I liked Victor French as long as he was in the show. He was great fun! I will buy season 1-3 on DVD, so that I can watch it, whenever I need a little happy wonderful world on TV...
"Our little House on the Prairie" and "Highway to Heaven" where non-violent shows, and I think, sometimes we could need more of them. -

In the first season of "Wanted: Dead or Alive", Michael Landon appears in two of the episodes. He plays a bad guy in the first, which was sure a switch from "Little House".
It's true that "Little House" is a bit syrupy, but it's nice to imagine that everyone's life could be like that of the Ingalls. I know I wish my life could have been like that. -

Thans ethan! I knew they both attended Ronald Reagan's second inauguration as Governor of California in 1971 so I guessed they must have at least met. -
I was sorry to learn that Merlin Olsen is seriously ill with lung cancer. Although he wasn't a good actor he did seem like a nice man.

Wow, that's ashame. True, Olsen wasn't the greatest actor but, I liked him on Little House and we used to watch Father Murphy all the time. It was like he was a gentle giant. Peacable but, don't tick him off, or else. -

Yes, what I should have written was he wasn't a particularly good actor, I thought he was an OK actor though. I did a search for information online and it seems he has mesothelioma, and is now suing NBC for apparently exposing him to asbestos. It seems strange that nobody else on the Little House developed the disease. -

Landon was also on Swing Out, Sweet Land, that was on NBC in 1971. It was an all star cast in tribute to America. You can get this on video with that title called, John Wayne's Tribute to America. Michael Landon and Dan Blocker do a scene together on this special.
