    My favorite was Karen! She was the mother everyone wanted. Make no mistake her sweet voice, smile and even her gentle touch was not acting. Add in she was a very natural beautiful women who was dedicated to her family is what makes a great woman .
    When I was a kid with a hard life a would get lost in those episodes as if i were part of the family. Today I am 59 and STILL watch Little House on Pluto TV!
    I did read her book and she still would be a person I would like. I am amazed she just learned how special she was to the world!
    I really believe Michael Landon knew how loved and Karen was. I believe he did not want her to know she was that valuable . Shaming her over money over 2 years was cruel and very Narcissist! We never heard that word Narcissist back then or even knew why women were so kept down.
    Karen you will live on for years to come for . You will be someone inspiration that is not even born yet!
    He we are watcing this video and your still very relevant ! We desperately need this show to be watched so we remember how kind and loving we were back then. Simple life. God bless you Karen! 🙏

    I absolutely love this lady. I am a couple years younger than Melissa Gilbert. I was definitely a huge fan of Little House on the Prairie. And I watched Bonanza frequently with my grandfather when I was a child. I was a huge Michael Landon fan. It always bugged me that he did not treat Karen the right way on the set. So sorry to hear that. Just the other day, I found the Little House on the Prairie series again, and I started to watch the series again. I don't know how many times I've watched these series. A few weeks ago, I decided to take an English class in college. In my English class, they had our class write a story. I wrote a 5000-word story similar to Little House on the Prairie, but of course, I made many changes to make it, unlike Little House on the Prairie. The entire time I wrote the story, I had the cast of Little House on the Prairie in the back of my mind... And, of course, I received a 100% on the grade. I decided to turn that essay into a full story just for giggles and laughs. I doubt it will go anywhere besides around my inner circle, but just the fact that it brought out the little house on the prairies through my perspective made it absolutely fun and exciting.
    If I were able to ask a few questions, it would have been if she has kept in contact with any of the cast members or if she still catches any of the old series of Little House..... I know some people don't like the watch the shows that they have acted in.

    Wow the drinking problem was very surprising as well. Both Little House and the Walton's ran almost parallel. Both shows had people who were alcoholics in real life. Michael Learned and Ralph Waite. Karen Grassle, and Michael Landon were all drinkers and overcame their drinking problems while filming the show. I was a little kid back then and never knew it. Great acting covered up a lot of it. I still love both shows and still watch both shows often. Thank you Karen Grassle (Ma). Congrats on being sober.

    I always loved Caroline Ingalls character. She was a very sweet sweet person. Caring and loving etc. My favorite episode that stressed me out was when Ma stayed home while Pa and the girls went ahead and was to meet Ma later on. While ma was at home she had a cut on her leg. It became infected and became very ill. I was stressed out because she was so ill nobody there to help her when Rev. Alden and this woman stopped by to grab some pies Caroline had to struggle to get their attention and never was able to. I just wanted to reach thru the TV screen to help. Other episodes I liked were ones where either Mrs. Olsen or Nellie were be harassed by other people. That was the gratifying part. 🙂

    I loved this interview with "Ma". I really look forward to all the Little House interviews you have done. Allison is the best! Hoping you can interview brothers Matthew (Albert Ingalls) and Patrick (Andy Garvey) Labyorteaux, Lindsey and Sidney Greenbush (Carrie Ingalls). I'd love if you could interview Melissa Sue Anderson, but that probably won't happen. From what I've read and the group I'm on, she doesn't attend anything Little House related. I think a great interview would be Jonathan Gilbert (Willie Oleson) but no one seems to be able to find out where he is as I think he has distanced himself from the show too. But anyone else from Little House you can interview would be awesome.

    Viewed through a feminist lens, it's no wonder that she did not think much of the Caroline Ingalls character. In those days, the roles of wife and mother don't seem very heroic or admirable. It's to the credit of the writers, though, that Caroline's inner strength and wisdom showed through in the later seasons. But the more perceptive among us can see that all throughout the series, the mothers and wives of Walnut Grove played their own crucial parts in the community, and the town would not have done so well if not for their labour. It's important now that these roles continue to be respected, as a community without a healthy female contribution will only decay and crumble.

      I don’t think she said in the interview she didn’t like working on Little House. She said she created her own characterizations of the character to be stronger. Karen had her issues with Michael but never denies how incredible he was as a producer, writer and creator of Little House.

    Omg. Michael landon is a horrible person. He didnt want to pay what she was worth and then made fun of her.

      Definitely not one of Michael's better sides. I know in many other ways he was very good to a lot of people.

    not much of a fan of that cheesy series. This actress was quite good the only one I was attracteded to. the adult cast seemed not really into the whole thing and I figured it was the money primarily. this came through and now she confirmed my impression. their was not much humor in that type of show.

      The Little House fan base is huge and although it didn’t capture you it has had a major effect on many.

      i ​@ThatsClassicTV I read the original book years ago to see what the hulabalu was all about. it seemed autobiographical if I remember it contained mostly hardships through a child's eyes the harsh winters, and epidemics etc. The book was an interesting historical record no doubt about it. Maybe I was too old to get into the little house series of book novels. I was more expecting something akin to BONANZA. for t.v. viewing.
