40 years! Can you believe
it! It’s been 40 years since Little House On The Prairie premiered on TV! How time flies!
Straight off his stint as Little Joe Cartwright in Bonanza,
Michael Landon starred as Pa Ingalls in the TV adaptation of the much beloved
novel.
As producer, director and writer (of many of the episodes)
Michael brought back wholesome, family-oriented entertainment to TV. Little House had a huge following and even
today the TV series is replayed in reruns all over the world.
Exactly how did it get started? The Pilot movie is included in this Blu-ray Collection
of the entire First Season of remastered episodes.
Five discs make up the collection that includes the Pilot movie
when the Ingalls first moved to Walnut Grove.
All the drama, humor and family togetherness are present, as are several
Special Features.
Included with the Pilot and First Season episodes are
featurettes on the cast screen tests, a 40th Anniversary Documentary
and much more, all courtesy of Lionsgate.
