Today was the 50th anniversary reunion of the television show Little House on the Prairie, over 24 cast members showed up. You could listen to your favorite cast member on a panel for questions and answers. You had a chance to take a photograph of your favorite cast member or you could have some of your favors photos or merchandise signed. It was a big festival a bus tour to the original movie location at the big sky movie ranch where they filmed Little House on the Prairie in Walnut Grove. It was an incredible experience. - Zábava
Peacock has all 9 seasons of Little House on the Prairie. I’m currently on season 4. I love rewatching this series. Brings back good memories
PLUTO TV as well
Michael Landon was a incredible actor and one thing that we sadly don't have anymore is great TV!! TV was something truly special back then and it was sad that he didn't live long because he would done more amazing work. 🙏
That was grand to have Victor French's son and daughter there to honor him.
'Old Dan Tucker'
Thank you for being there, I am the same age as Laura I grew up watching this show, and 50 years later I am still watching, and it's still a great show.
My then husband and I went to L.A. for vacation in 2003 and spent a day exploring Santa Monica and Malibu. We were pleasantly surprised to stumble across the Michael Landon Community Center in Malibu. For those who haven't been there, it's across from Pepperdine University! The park where it sits overlooks the Pacific Ocean and is unbelievably scenic.
I am 61, and this brought a tear to my eyes... Seems like yesterday...
Me too.... 😢😢 Loved it!!
@@brendaross3961 🥰🥰🥰🥰
61 here too, I am right there with you my friends!!! ❤️
@@karenleemallonee684 ❣❣❣❣❣
I am the same age as you, and I feel the very same way: Great memories!
I love little house on the prairie and Melissa Gilbert. When the show aired life was simpler and just better all around, I miss it so much. Thank you!
i still try to make the life simpler and be gratefull for each day.
At first look, I thought Victor French's son was actually him. I had to stop because I thought he passed away. Then, Mike stated it was his son. What a resemblance!!!
Like the Waltons convention in Waco Texas recently, I would have loved to meet the cast of Little House on the Prairie. I grew up watching that show and the Waltons and I can't get over how old they are now. It really makes me feel old myself.
Wow, the woman you didn’t recognize was Hester Sue, she worked at the blind school when Mary and Adam were teachers there! Great to see her!!!
I can't imagine anyone not remembering her! She brought such a warmth to the show! She was in several seasons too!
@@StacyL. Yes, loved her! Ketty Sue Lester
She also sang beautifully, always brought a tear to my to hear her sing because she always had so much emotion in her voice.
@@beckysutherland2065 Agreed! She is so gifted!
Thinking of Highway to Heaven reminds me of my dad. He really liked that television show. My dad passed away in 2015 so things like this which has been the second time today is something has reminded me of my dad. 😭
🙏🏼
You have to remember Hester Sue, she worked mostly in the blind school with Mary and Adam. Remember the episode when the blind school burned and Mrs Garver was stuck in there with Mary's baby and busted out the window trying to get out.? Hester Sue led the children out She saw them in the window and shouted something like "The Baby" She was a very popular character.
I remember and agree ❤
And Mrs. Oleson thought she was going to meet a very rich upper-class lady by the name Terhune when they took the blind school children to Walnut Grove.. Haha
Michael Landon knew how to make good entertainment. He lives on in hearts. Thank you Michael. I saw more of his later works. The really fun thing in the seventies was wearing clothes like that..Gunni Sax dresses etc. I think that show reflected not just the great teachable stories but the hard work and “simple” life. They feel like a family, don’t they? Melissa is still so pretty. What delightful people they all are, huh? The lady who played Nellie Olsen reminds me of my aunt. ❤️
Haha, the glum face behind the two of you in the photograph adds to the story.🤭
I wish you could have seen the set of Bonanza. It’s there but they sold it so it’s not open to the public.
I think the glum faced sec guard wants to become famous and that’s why he wdnt get out of the picture! Lol😂
FYI Mike, Michael Landon Jr. is the developer and executive producer (also wrote and directed some episodes) of the show "When Calls the Heart" which has been running for 11 seasons on the Hallmark Channel. It is set in 1910 in a coal mining town in western Canada and has much the same feel as Little House on the Prairie. It is shot in Langley, British Columbia at what is called the Jamestown movie set on the property of MacInnes Farms. Fun fact is Dom DeLuise's son Peter is a regular director for the show as well. One of my kids has been a crew member on the show for the past 7 seasons.
I have been a little house on the prairie fan since 1974 and I'm still a little house on the prairie fan
Hi GIV, I’m currently rewatching the series in its entirety and now that I’m older it is hitting home and I’m just loving it. If the world had held onto those values I can’t imagine what a better place it would be. Thank you to all the cast and especially Michael Landon. ❤❤😊😊
Still watch this show everyday never gets old!! Love LHOP
Merci de nous avoir fait partager cette vidéo remplie d'émotion et de revoir ces merveilleux acteurs qui ont bercé mon enfance.
Great video Thank you so much for sharing.
I’ll be 60 in 2 weeks n was born n raised in Cincinnati Ohio n in my house this show n The Waltons were a main stay in my childhood years being I was raised in church n these shows like these are why no matter what I’ve done in life I had basic morals just like the characters in these legendary shows
Hey Mike!
This is one of the very best video's you've ever done, EPIC!!!!
A shame Michael Landon isn't still here.
I can just see that wide smile he had, he would have loved it!
I miss Mr. Edwards too!!!
I've read all the books and have watched all the shows, many many times!
It is sad to see that golf cart and the picture of Michael, Mr. Edwards, and whoever else riding in it back then, having fun, laughing and cutting up, and so sad that they're gone now!!!
A shame times aren't like this anymore!
Thanks so much for taking us along Mike!!!
I didn't just like this video, I lovedddddddddddddddddddddddd it!!!!
So much fun, so many memories and so sad to know that a lot of them have already passed on!!!
I thought I was the only 50 + guy that watched Little house. Stoked your so stoked being there
I’m glad you were there! I haven’t seen any of the other big YT channels post about it. Looks like a very cool event and it was epic Jonathan Gilbert showed up!
Quite a few smaller ones though
@@bigbaddms I have seen some of those but made me smile GIV kinda scooped some of the other big accounts :)
Johnathan Gilbert would have been a great interview.
WOW! Great video. I was thinking that this three day event was exhausting for the cast. They did a fantastic job!
Keep in mind this is less than a year after the actors strike, so this had to have been a really nice payday for some of them that don’t get big residuals,but getting the love from Little House fans on what the show meant to fans had to have been priceless. This is still one of the biggest syndicated shows of all time.
When I was 12 in 1975,I sent Melissa Sue a Fan Letter talking about My Horse Back Riding Lessons,She Sent an autographed Picture and Note and even wrote back again with another Note!
She was one of the most Beautiful Child Stars and a Great Actress,Still Beautiful today,Too bad she isn’t at the event,always liked her demure presence
Great video. I feel like I was there. You do a phenomenal job.
Thank you so much for taking me with you!!! I wish I was actually there like you, I'm so jealous!!! LOL Dean Anderson was my first crush!! Would have loved to meet him, and of course Melissa Gilbert!
Hi friend, a huge thank you for this beautiful sharing!! this series rocked my childhood as well as that of my wife. We are 51 years old this year. Another big and huge thank you from France!! Best wishes. Sylvain.
C'était une série toute pourrie.
@@ratso-rizzo T R O L L 👹 elsewhere!
That theme song takes me back to my childhood.
My family came from Walnut Grove. back in those days, and they owned a store. I hope to God they weren't the Olsens. LOL. but they're in the museum. They have there It's really fun to see this. Thank you for sharing
What a cool reunion! Thanks for sharing it with us! And how neat that Patrick watches your channel!!😊
Great video
..it's something you can watch these shows long time ago growing up and not knowing that you would someday meet them
....never know what can happen from one day to the next and in the future....great video Mike ..awsome Wunderbar
Love, love, love 🥰 Good vibes! Thanks for taking us!!! 😊 🖐️
Ty so much for sharing this great reunion of LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE wow 50 years👏😁🇨🇦
They really don't make shows like Little House any more, just a sweet, wonderful show that taught kids like me what was right and what was wrong, our generation growing up watching shows like LIttle House is one of the reasons we grew up to be good, decent and honest people - sadly that is lacking in today's society
👋
What a great journey down memory lane. Thank you! I watch this show when I was a kid. It was one of my favorites. I read all the books too. Good family values. How fun that you got to meet the cast.
Best shows growing up !!!❤🎉❤🎉❤
I’m 64 years youngish🥰 My family and I watched Lil house every week growing up ♥️When I became a mom and had my own family, we watched together ~ As you said, every episode had a lesson, heartwarming and wholesome. I still watch and I’m either laughing or tearing up~ Michael Landon was brilliant, he knew how to tell a story, teaching us morals and values. My favorite TV dad & family! I thoroughly enjoyed your vlog, you captured up -close and personal interviews and photos, it definitely took me back in time❤
Melissa Gilbert-Lil Laura-Half pint is amazing! Just saw the Lord is my Shepherd episode, still teared up😢Love the entire cast…play the theme song🎶All the best from San Diego Ca😎
Another excellent video! Thank you Mike! ❤
One of my favorite things you do on your channel is the picture match up! Thanks for sharing GIV. This was one of the best shows on the TV network. LHOTP!
Wow that was great what you have done here for the world to see !! I really enjoyed this video you did thank you so much!!! So cool
I am having so much fun watching your coverage of the Little House reunion. Hylabee
Thanks for posting this. I would photoshop the body guard out of that photo with Melissa.
😜👍I did
Absolutely LOVE this!! God bless and thank you!!!
Melissa Gilbert might have been the star of the show, but many of the cast actors that were present truly made the show a success, especially Melissa Sue Anderson. Sorry that she was not there.
I don't think she has happy memories of the show, or just doesn't want to be part of the reunions.
Not sure why Melissa Anderson didn’t go, but from what she said in a podcast who asked her if she was going to Simi, she lives on the other side of the country and the organizers couldn’t reel her in to attend. She said Today Show did a 40th reunion in New York which was convenient for her back then.
Yes. Too bad. Everyone Being older now it would have been nice for her to go. Those meet and greets looked very busy, then again it’s only 2 days of your life. The organizers put in huge time and effort to make it happen and she may never see some of the cast members again. Who knows maybe she has Health issues
Attitude... like MG, KG and Almanzo...One CAN see it here. The sub characters were more visibly authentic and appreciative.
Melissa still looks so much like Laura even if she's older. Good to see many of the actors are still alive (of course many where children when they started). What a show Michael Landon created, will be remembered and loved for many more years.
Michael, you did a wonderful job on your mini video series on Little House on the Prairie. God bless.❤ it brings back a lot of memories. It was bittersweet combining the good and bad, lifelong lessons of learning as a child.
This is the most fantastic video coverage of LHOTP that I have ever seen. The talent you have enabled you to make this informative, enlightening and memorable. I love the way you covered everyone that was in the show and showed us all around this wonderful reunion. This is my favorite show of all time (I Love Lucy, too) can’t leave her out and it’s great that you were able to attend this 50th reunion. I have saved this video so I can watch it over and over again. You made this very special as you spoke throughout and it is apparent that you love this show as much as me and all of the fans there. I am glad you were able to attend.
I remember my mom watching this and loved it!! I became a fan of his over the past few years and I haven't 👀 much of this but I will!! This is so cool to see.
I wish I could have been there. Thank you for documenting this.
I'm glad you got to film this piece. And, as you said, there aren't true American Values in TV SHOWS like these anymore. I didn't grow up watching these TV shows, but I know they're good; my family did, though. They still watch all the seasons of Bonanza on CZcams. I'm going to share this video with them. I know they will love it, Mike.😃 Thank you so much! They love Bonanza and Michael Landon. It would be best if you covered WonderCon this weekend. If you need tix, I can get you in.
Absolutely love the way you honored that show. You're the best GIV!
Mike I gotta tell you. I never saw an episode of LHOTP. I watched your videos of it because of you. I very glad it makes you so happy. Great job.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for attending this !!❤❤❤ fantastic GIV. ♥️🙏🏻👍🏻
Here I go again commenting which I only do when something deserves a Wow! Great video again. Thank you for the memories!
This is the most satisfactory video for this channel... for personal reasons. My 1st ever experience watching a show in color. Even made me cry on 2 epidodes... and I was only 14. Just a fantastic video
Thank you big fella
finally a decent video.
i would not have thought a show so old would still have such an active following,
and doing some nice business too.
good for them ! and good job GiV !
Super! French who grew up with the little house in the prairie!❤ i saw many many time each episode!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Thanks for thé vidéo ! Kiss from France Mike!!!!
Ben alors, enfoiré, tu t'es égaré sur le CZcams californien ! 😁
Mike, thanks so much for this fascinating program and especially your impressions of it. You have done an outstanding job showing so many different aspects of this legendary series. We need TV shows like this today in our crazy, mixed up world.
I loved both shows! They displayed good values for people to follow and you felt safe. We need shows like this today. TY, GIV!! 😊
Wow, thanks for sharing
Great to see you enjoy yourself! Certainly a programme I remember from my childhood❤.
Thank you for Taking us Back 50 years Mike 🙏
Beautiful video ...Really enjoyed watching this ❤️
I Remember driving out to Simi Valley from my days living in LA .....over 30 years ago now 😊!
Cheers GIV 🎙🎶🥂
I ' watched all this too!!! Since I was little and I Love the Episodes with Billy Barty!!! and Espcially the with the "Runaway Caboose"🥰...and you know that Melissa and Sara Gilbert are Sisters too!!!! (From the Conners!!!!)
not biological sisters though: )
In ireland every sunday ther was little house on the prairy the waltons and the dukes of hazzerd on tv😊
Thanks for this great video, Mike! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
You are an excellent tour guide! Thank you for your time and talent!
Ich beneide dich so sehr. Ich habe damals komplett alle Folgen von " Unsere kleine Farm" auf Video aufgenommen. Ich weiß gar nicht mehr, wieviele Videokassetten ich dafür brauchte. Das jetzt zu seehen, ist einfach nur wundervoll. Was für eine Zeitreise.
Cool, Laura Inngalls Wilder who wrote the Little House books lived and is buried about 20 miles from me in the Ozarks region of Missouri. Some of the actresses from the show have came to the Cherry Blossom Festival where I live. Even a star on the sidewalk in front of our museum.
It's crazy how much melissa gilbert looks like my aunt and my sister
Maybe she’s related. She was adopted.
Another great video! You out do yourself! Enjoyed much!
Little House was sure a family favourite for us. It got me through highschool
This was fun….I’m so glad they were all friendly to you.
Excellent vlog Mike, it made your day meeting members of the cast and seeing the sets and the locations. Amazing info, GIV indeed. Timeless memories of the show flooding back to me. Well done GIV👍🌟👍
The Patricia Neal episode is the one I most remember, brilliantly written by Michael Landon. So heartwarming & sad!
I loved the one with June Carter and Johhny Cash!
I enjoyed every minute of your show and all The Little House On The Prairie cast members. Thank you for your time and good spirit of the show pictures of years past. 🙏
I’m so glad you went and shared these great Little House on the Prairie reunion videos! It made my heart heavy. I remember being a little girl in the 80’s and watching the show with my Great-Grandma, my best friend! This brings back so many memories and makes me miss her even more than I already do since she passed away in 1989… I always wish I could’ve met Michael Landon. He was a very special man.
This was really great! It’s so great to see a lot of the cast. Thank you so much!
🌹
Thank you for truth. Back when America was a whole lot better than it is now for sure. One reason why MeTV and oldies channels are popular.
I for one like electricity, lol. But I know what you mean... kids playing outside, sitting together as a family, and a rocking chair outside. ❤
@@BerryBerry1465 family and boys and girls are forbidden words now. And you forgot the church. Which was faithfully portrayed there and then.
Thank you so much for this.....I loved Michael Landon too, always wished he could be my Dad. Loved Little House on the Prairie, we so need shows like that today. Makes me yearn for the simpler times. So sad Melissa Sue Anderson couldn't be there.
Thank you, German in Venice.
For this video it was great
Loved this, so much! Thank you for sharing!
Awww man , this bought some awesome memories back to me from my childhood. 😢 Thank you GIV
Thank you so much for taking your time , to show us the video.
I do appreciate because I am a HUGE fan of Little House on The Prairie.
I’m 63 I grew up on ranch in rural Utah. I never missed an episode of Bonanza little Joe ( Michael Landon) was my idol. I named my horse Cochise after Little Joe’s horse.
One of the best characters Hollywood has produced is that of Caroline Ingalls. She was perfect! The real Caroline Ingalls would have been so pleased!
It was such a joy to watch the cast of Little House on The Prairie. It was always entertaining! I still watch it on Roku. We need shows like this on television!
Well, I wasn’t going to say anything and 64 my mom and me moved to Laurel Canyon. She started doing nails make up and hair at universal studios. I also worked at Paramont Warner Brothers and Desi Lu. Dan Blocker was a very good friend of mine. He was hoss in bonanza TV series
Wow, so awesome! Thanks for sharing.
No Desi Lu, no Star Trek.
I’m glad you typed this!! I was at Old Tucson in Arizona where shows were filmed - I saw Little House costumes as well as costumes and props from Bonanza. I always liked Dan Blocker, the hat Dan wore on the set of Bonanza was HUGE!
@@aileenhoop5810 I went to old Tucson a couple of times to help until these all Tucson is depressing they tried to turn it into a muse meant park and they burn down the best part of the town so now no one can go there and look at it they were so stupid not to rebuild that part
I want to start a CZcams channel about what happened in the 60s and 70s and Hollywood but I don’t know if it would work or not
Brought back so many memories!! Loved this show. Loved Touched by an Angel. When I was a teenager we went to vaca in LA & we stayed at the Beverly Hilton (quite the hot spot back then). There was a famous restaurant in the hotel, Trader Vics. It was my Mom, Aunt & I. I assumed we'd be seated in or near the kitchen LOL Although Mom was quite the stunner, with not a hair out of styled place, perfect makeup etc. So she chatted with the maître d' & he led us to this little island in the middle of the restaurant. The tables were very close. My Mom whispered something to me like "they are people too, don't stare." I didn't grasp why she said this. Then we were seated. To our left was Elton John, to our right Michael Landon!!!!
People were staring from all over, but my Mom acted as if we were seated between any regular folks. A couple people kept coming to Michael Landon, while he was clearly trying to eat. So Mom positioned her handbag so they couldn't get by LOLOL He gave her a nod & ear to ear smile. So we all ate a great meal. Michael Landon was done a bit before us and on his way out stopped, smiled at all of us, told us what a pleasure to have been seated there, a little chit chat and smiled with such gratitude at my Mom. It was a great experience as well as a great lesson. Plus a short but lovely interchange. OH.... this would have been during the Little House years and I was shocked that his hair was totally gray. STUNNING but gray. But when we saw him on TV in a month or so, it was blonde. So guess he colored it for shows for many years. Quite the handsome man either way!!! Elton John didn't even glance at us LOL
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Three great vlogs of your time at the LHOTP 50th anniversary reunion. 😊
So nice to see so many people enjoying something from their pasts, that fills them with so much joy.
Landon had the best hair in Hollywood
One of the most handsome men in the world.
Awesome, video Mike! I bet your mom enjoyed seeing this as well...Blessings always 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I hope I’m around when GiV gets to charge $50.00 for a selfie! I’d love to see that! Thanks for the video! Loved Michael so much! Cheers from the Rock lady in Oceanside, California.
Great memories watching this show growing up. Thanks for this video!
Hi Mike! Thanks very much for producing this delightful video that takes us down memory lane to visit and rekindle the charm and warmth of Little House on the Prairie. Tschuessi
How I loved this show growing up. Makes me tearful just thinking of how special it was.
Love this GIV! Thanks so much for your time and effort.😸
My favorite shows growing up🥰 Thank you very much for sharing👍🏼
Thank you! Great job! I can tell you this TV show saved my life and my sisters.
We would hardly ever miss an episode. I remember as a young child (about 6 or 7) going on a trip with my father and sister and we went to visit one of my fathers friends and then after we where going to leave to visit another one of his friends. The TV was on and I made a fuss because Little House on the prairie came on. I cried saying I wanted to stay and watch it and my father's friends said it was okay let the girls stay and watch as he would be back in a couple hours. But, he didn't come back that evening because he was in a car accident and if we had been with him we wouldn't have made it out of the car accident. He spent the night in the hospital pretty banged up. So that's how Little House on the prairie saved our lives❤❤ Such a great show....I still love to watch... wholesome Television 🤗
❤ I'm 60 and grew up in L.A. with Little House like everyone else. This was awesome, GIV!
Thank you for sharing this. This is one of my fav shows. I watch often.
Another great video covering LHOTP. Thanks so much, Mike. Have a great evening!😶🌫️
This is wonderful ! Thank you so much for sharing .
