Heartwarming saga of a frontier family's struggles and triumphs on a farm near Walnut Grove, Minn., in the 1870s. Based on the books of Laura Ingalls Wilder (whose character doubles as narrator), it was the signature achievement of star-executive producer Michael Landon. It relates the family's experiences dealing with natural disasters and health problems, notably the poignant story of Mary Ingalls' blindness. In its final season, it was titled `Little House: A New Beginning.'

Q: In response to Sarah's letter on TV being better 30 years ago (mentioning Little House on the Prairie), I pulled up the schedule from one of the years Little House ran. Among the listings: Operation Petticoat, Battlestar Galactica (the hokey original), Kaz, Grandpa Goes to Washington, What's Happening!!, Project UFO, The New Adventures of Wonder Woman, Flying High, Who's Watching the Kids, Carter Country. I watch a lot of TV, but I don't remember most of this list. When comparing to the ... read more
Ask Matt | 3/24/2008
Q: Do you ever think that TV shows, even with all the money spent on them these days, aren't as enjoyable as they were 20 or 30 years ago? If you were not a TV critic and couldn't search out and watch the gems, would the modern TV landscape hold any interest for you? As a child, my mom and I were addicted to Little House on the Prairie, and later, I used to look forward all day to watching the Thursday night lineup on NBC. But now everything seems so different. If people aren't being tortured, . read more

June 25, 2007: Family Is First | Big Love | 6/26/2007
The title I’ve chosen for this week’s blog was a quote from “The Prophet” himself, and it was a fitting one for tonight’s episode. I have to give Roman Grant some credit. Even when he is plotting, undermining and defrauding, he still seems to wholeheartedly believe that he has the best interests in mind for his “righteous flock.” And what a flock it is! The next time I complain about a big family get-together, I am going to think back to this episode and thank my lucky stars. Nicki’s supersized lineage was on the front burner tonight as she convinced Bill to visit the compound with her and even stay as a guest in Roman’s house. Suffice it to say that Jerry Springer could have a field day with this bunch! What I don’t get is how anyone, least of all Nicki, could be surprised by Alby’s revelation that it was Roman who called the governor’s office about Barb. Seriously? The man is willing to overlook the attempted murder of... read more
