Unfortunately, I grew up with an absentee father and abusive mother. I had no frame of reference for “good parents”; until I started watching this show. No matter how bad things got or how angry Ma was, she was always loving, patient, understanding, and forgiving to her children. That’s a good mother.
The one episode where Albert gets into trouble for something and Pa stands there so proudly and says “I’ll assume responsibility for my son”, had me in tears. He adopted Albert, a boy he didn’t even know, and made him an equal child in his heart. That’s a good father, a good man.
This is the parenting I try to emulate. My 2 kids are grown, college graduates, leading happy successful lives and my husband and I will be celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary this year.
I wonder if the cast knows how much this show meant to kids.

I love the one where Caroline makes Laura and Mary new dresses for their school essay thing they had. Laura was young still and couldn't write as good as Mary but she delivered a knock-out reading. Miss Beadle is amazing at the end.

My favourite is the one where Laura puts the Cayenne pepper on the cinnamon chicken that she was cooking for Nellie and Mrs. Olsen kept calling Almanzo “Zaldamo”

I literally feel like crying, Little House on the Prairie was my favorite show of all time!!!!

[chrisj]

Definitely one of the greatest television shows ever made

[franknberry]

Laura pushing Nelly down the hill in the wheelchair is the best episode ever!

[embeth]

This show was such an integral part of my childhood. I probably watched it every day for 10 years straight. My entire family loved the show. My sisters and I would reenact it, playing Mary, Laura and Carrie. Fantastic memories.

The Blizzard is one of my favorites because Harriet actually showed that she cared throughout the entire episode and even had her kids helping by preparing linens

[LilyZerep]

My favorite epsiode was the the He loves me he loves me not 2 because that's when Nellie meets and falls in love with Percival. Loved how nice she became and laughed hysterically to Mrs. Oleson's reaction to Percival being Jewish.

They were exceptional actors. Never to be forgotten. The casting was brilliant. Every single one of the 25 key characters were essential and missed when not there. This was beyond tv gold

[LittlePinkPiggy]

The Waltons and Little my favourite shows when I was growing up and actually still are!

[purplecabbage]

One of my favorite episodes is where Laura's baby brother died and she climed that mountain to get closer to God & she meets Jonathan who was an angel that took care of her. That was so sweet

[labellabeach]

We were blessed as kids of the 70’s & 80’s to be able to grow up watching a family we all wanted to be part of! The Waltons too. Double blessed to be able to watch the reruns everyday on tv still which makes you feel like a kid again. Especially during the crazy covid times!

My favorite episode was called 'Bunny'. It contains the Wheelchair Down The Hill scene!

Little house in the Prairie always brings tears in my eyes, love all the casts and miss Michael London so

[amagickalmeliss]

My favorite is “the richest man in Walnut Grove” when Pa lost his job and everyone worked together. Two best parts are when Half-pint punches Nellie in the nose and when Pa agrees with Mr Olsen that he’s the richest man in Walnut Grove “I know I am” almost crying. 💜 Mary taking the test and losing is my second favorite. When she gets home and everyone still celebrates her 😭🥰.

[erikbedard]

Most beautiful episode is "Sylvia Part 1 and 2" because Albert stood up for Sylvia and cherished her all the way till the moment she died in his arms. Heart breaking but so well done.

[kiwuwuwu]

I have to agree with Matthew on the dark episodes though! My favorite is Sylvia 1 and 2. Most of the Albert-centered episodes and scenes were my favorites. I also adore Sweet Sixteen. I cant get enough of Laura and Almanzo finally falling in love and Laura growing into a woman.

I love The Little House On The Prairie, I never get tired of watching it, I still watch it every day.
