    It's not Fuller House. It's Little House.
    Michael Landon was not just the director. He was the creator and star of the series.
    When the Ingalls left, Laura and Almanzo were not left in Dakota. They were left in Walnut Grove, where most of the series took place and finished up.
    As for Laura Ingalls and Almanzo Wilder in real life, there was actually a 10-year age difference between them. Laura had been born in 1867 and Almanzo had been born 10 years earlier in 1857. They were believed to have met when she was 15 and he was 25.

    I liked the one where her brother died and she ran away to the mountain to talk to god it was a touching movie and Johnathan was a good player in that part

    I grew up watching Little House. It was my mom’s favorite show and she watched reruns until she passed. Then I found out My daughter (homeschooled my grands) had all 3 reading Little House at various points in time.
    I’d have to say Little House books and tv characters touched 4 generations of my family in such positive ways and will continue to be remembered for years to come 💗

    Laura actually made that show 👏 ABSOLUTELY didn't take nothing off of anyone! Always her daddy's girl! Mr.Edwards really received a lot of honor from her! A very well thought out production of wonderful days of yesteryear!🎉❤❤ ONE of the BEST 👌 👍🏻

    To this day, I still go back and watch Little House on the Prairie one of my favorite shows and greatest memories watching with my grandmother back in the 70s. Melissa Gilbert sounds like she found the light at the end of the tunnel. Life is about making memories not the money. ❤

    Actually the real Almonzo was 10 years older than Laura. They met when she was 15 and he was 25, but of course, that would be normal for the time period.

    Melissa did a reading for children at the Brighton, MI Library. Timothy Busfield was outside Meijer's in Brighton, MI campaigning for her. I asked to take his picture and because I was so nervous, he held my phone and took a couple pictures. They are both SO NICE. Such good people.

    I loved the books the series is based on. It took me a while to warm up to the series because some elements were so different, especially Pa. I eventually grew to love the TV series. I think Laura and the Olesons were closest to the original characters. If you haven't read the books, I highly recommend them. The ones with illustrations by Garth Williams.

    The real Laura ingalls 10 years younger than almanzo Wilder
    she was 16 when she
    And Armando got married I think he was 90 when he passed away I believe she/ Laura was 80 yeah. When she passed away. Michael Landon was wanting to stick with the book as much as he could because. the real almanzo was 10 years
    older than Laura ingalls Wilder.
    I love those books
    the Little House in the Big woods ARE school teacher read we had a story time she picked the Little House in the Big woods just loved that story that was one of my favorite story books was Little House in the Big woods and Henry Huggins 😊 and his dog ribsy +

  • @MsSwwood
    @MsSwwood Місяць тому +12

    They imply here that Kari Michaelson is Melissa's half sister. She is not. Also, it's wrong to say we don't know why someone was adopted. That's a cruel and stupid thing to say. George and Laura Bush had trouble conceiving. They were set to adopt a child. However, Mrs. Bush learned she was pregnant with twins before the adoption was complete. Stop saying stupid speculations. If you don't know the facts, don't presume you can just make up stuff.

    The real Laura Ingalls Wilder was 10 years younger than her husband Almanzo. And she was 13-14 when they met and 15 when he started courting her. So for once the producers stuck to the source material.
