glad to see the shows on dvd   July 12, 2004

i have read the reviews of not liking the quality of the shows, i thought that they were great. i am a huge fan of LHOTP and i am so excited that they have the shows on dvd. i will buys all seasons.


Love it!   June 25, 2004
For people who love LHOTP and have been aching to get them on dvd's for years - this is wonderful!! I love sitting down and watching the stories each night minus the ads and having a heartwarming feeling afterward.

People are being highly critical of the audio and dvd quality. I'm glad they're not souped up to be in 5.1 Dolby Digital or DTS because it maintains its 1970's flavor just like the TV shows do! The DVD quality is fine - not sure why the complaints there. As for missing scenes, I am LHOTP addict and don't notice missing scenes from the way they aired on TV. THere are some Videos that ADDED a few bonus scenes, but if you compare the DVD's to television airing, it's all there. ADDED scenes are just a bonus, and you can't complain if they're not there.

ALL in all - if you love LHOTP and aren't a tech junkie looking for the maximum in DVD formats, you'll be well satisfied with these versions.


Disappointing DVD treatment for a great show...   June 2, 2004
"Little House on the Prairie" needs no defense or praise: it was a fabulous show, it easily could have lasted longer on television, and it remains eminently watchable and rewatchable today. Unfortunately, the show has suffered in DVD treatment. Many episodes are inexplicably cut, as if they were taken from a TBS rerun feed instead of the original film. The picture quality could also be much better. It is unfortunate that such a fabulous show has suffered so on DVD. LHOTP deserves better. I wish I could recommend these DVDs, but perhaps with enough fan complaint better editions (maybe also with some extras!) will one day become available.


POOR QUALITY DVD- But The Price Is Right   May 28, 2004
I have to agree with one of the readers remarks. True Little House Fans should realize that this project was throwen together in a few minutes.

For one thing, the company knew they where not selling the best quality DVD's, or the price would have been ten times higher. If they had behind the scenes footage and interviews etc, as well as better scene selections. You can imagine how much the price would be jacked up. Instead of paying 45.00 per season expect to pay 80.00 to 90.00. The more time they spend on it, the more of a cost it will become.

This is one of the best TV family series that has been aired. I agree on that statement, but people have to realize that the younger generation has not growen up with Little House, if they did it was becuase of the parents interest. NBC or any other company will not release another version of Little House seasons becuase there will be no demand, or it will be much more expensive as well as Limited addition. They also have obviously realized that people still do watch the show or they would have NOT released it on DVD.

As for visual quality, I agree that it can be as bad as watching a VHS, but as one viewer put it, its better then pressing the fast foward button and waiting fer certain episodes to be aired. No commercials is a treat as well.
I encourage everyone to continue purchasing the series who just want to watch the show and don't care about extra tidbits DVD's normally offer . For people complaining about quality- you won't get far becuase the price more then reasonable. Stop buying the series if your not satisfied and write the company a complaint. They will view complaints if enough people write.

The show itself deserves 5 stars.. Melissa Gilbert did get on my nerves a few times... And it was way off from the novels. But again Michael Landon does a Superb job. I can't wait for Season 6!! In my opinion is the best season.

Other Good Family Series

1) Dr. Quinn
2) The Cosby Show
3)The Waltons
4)Threes A Company
5) I Dream Of Jeannie
6) I love Lucy..
7)The Honeymooners
