Little House on the Prairie — Season 5, Episode 22
A majority of the episodes in the original North American DVD versions had scenes cut from the episodes—these were derived from the syndicated television versions by Worldvision Enterprises, the series' former distributor. Other episodes (especially in Season Eight) were time compressed and are NTSC-converted video prints from UK PAL masters, while others were derived from 16MM syndication prints, also from Worldvision. Only a handful of episodes in the original sets were in their original uncut versions. The first three seasons of the old sets notably are also missing closed captioning.

The newer Lionsgate remastered sets all contain English, French, and Spanish audio as well as English subtitles. They do not include the special features present on the earlier non-remastered releases, but rather seasons 1 through 6 each contain a roughly 15 minute segment of a special called "The Little House Phenomenon". Seasons 8 & 9 contain the three post-series movie specials as extras, with "Look Back to Yesterday" and "The Last Farewell" appearing on Season 8, and "Bless All The Dear Children" appearing on Season 9. None of the available releases of the series contain "The Little House Years", which was a three-hour Thanksgiving special aired during Season 6 that largely consisted of flashback clips. Gilbert played Laura for nine seasons, growing up from the little girl in braids to a married mom.
Main cast
Speaking with the San Diego Entertainer, Richards said that during her first casting, she didn’t realize what she was doing there. She was born January 11, 1969 in Los Angeles, California, and alongside her sister she headed for show business at a very young age. Richards said she still keeps in touch with Melissa Gilbert, who played Laura Ingalls Wilder, the show's main character.

She has starred in TV movies and series, appeared on "Dancing with the Stars," wrote two memoirs, served as the president of the Screen Actors Guild, and acts in plays and musicals. A new family, the Carters (Stan Ivar as John, Pamela Roylance as Sarah, Lindsay Kennedy as older son Jeb, and David Friedman as younger son Jason), move into the Ingalls house. Meanwhile, Almanzo and Laura take in their niece, Jenny Wilder (played by Shannen Doherty), when Almanzo's brother dies and raise her alongside their daughter, Rose. The Wilders appear prominently in some episodes, while in others they appear only in early scenes used to introduce the story or its characters.
Celebrating its 50th anniversary, we asked this “prairie head” to run down his definitive 10 episodes. Comedian Ray Ellin remembers watching Little House on the Prairie from an early age and being captivated by the Ingalls family adventures in Walnut Grove. His love of the American western drama only grew stronger as a teenager into adulthood when the series landed in syndication. Nonetheless, Richards’ has become a major celebrity since starring on the reality television show. In 2019, she was actually nominated on the People’s Choice Awards for “Favorite Reality TV Star”.
Some of Richards’ fondest acting memories involve her mother, who died in 2002 from breast cancer and taught her about classic Hollywood. While in London shooting “The Watcher in the Woods,” she would lie in bed listening to her mom talk about the significance of her co-star, Davis. But there were less pleasant times, too, like when her peers at Los Angeles’ Roscomare Road Elementary School circled around her and said she looked fat in the 1800s-set miniseries “Beulah Land” because she was wearing petticoats. Kyle had a lead role in Peacock’s first original holiday movie, The Housewives of the North Pole, which was released in 2021. American Woman was a one-season sitcom inspired by Kyle’s childhood.
Her first appearance is in Remember Me part 1 and 2 when Alicia’s mother Julia dies. But at the last minute newlyweds Grace and Isiah Edwards adopt her and her siblings. Alicia Sanderson Edwards remains a beloved character in the “Little House on the Prairie” series, providing a heartwarming example of the power of love, family, and resilience in the face of adversity. Her adoption story showcases the potential for new beginnings and the importance of a supportive and loving family. Alicia forms a strong bond with her adoptive family, especially her adoptive father, Isaiah Edwards, who she affectionately calls “Mr. Edwards.” She develops a sisterly relationship with her adoptive mother, Grace.
It’s the Ingalls family origin story and shows the immediate challenges they face as soon as they settle on the banks of Plum Creek, just outside Walnut Grove. Ellin believes it’s also where you get first examples of how kind, tough, and hard-working the family was. At the same time as having three small children to take care of, Richards decided that she wanted smaller parts in television. Still to this day, Richards watch Little House on the Prairie once in a while, together with her children. I had a very positive experience as a child actor, I worked with incredible people,” she said. Not only did Little House include many wonderful performers, including Melissa Gilbert and Michael Landon.
They carried books, posters, vintage lunch boxes and aprons to get autographed. The part called for Richards to be far grungier and physical than she is on reality TV — and to film a harrowing scene in a North Carolina swamp, home to alligators and snakes. Currently, Kyle is getting ready to appear in the LGBTQ holiday romance film The Holiday Exchange. Alicia Sanderson Edwards was portrayed by Kyle Richards, who joined the series in season 4. The pilot film inspired a miniseries in 2005 which was also heavily inspired by the novels of the same name. Some of the episodes written by Michael Landon were recycled storylines from ones that he had written for Bonanza.
Jonathan Gilbert, the younger brother of Melissa Gilbert, played Willie Oleson, Nellie's brother, in his first acting job. He appeared in all seasons of Little House on the Prairie and two of the TV movies. He also acted with his sister in the 1979 made-for-TV movie The Miracle Worker.
Her sister Kim was also an actress, and appeared in one episode of Little House on the Prairie, the season before Kyle joined the cast. [3] Kyle recalls when filming Little House on the Prairie, they were out in Simi Valley riding horses, playing in the streams, and catching ducks. She began her career as a child actress, appearing in a recurring role on Little House on the Prairie, and in several horror films, including The Car (1977), Tobe Hooper's Eaten Alive (1977), and John Carpenter's Halloween (1978).
