As someone who grew up with the show and books, I'm so excited for July 9! Nothing can outdo the original, but I think this one will follow the books more. Alice Halsey, the actress for Laura Ingalls, is fabulous just from her work on Days of Our Lives alone, so I can't wait to see how she brings the character to life.

They better have a good Nellie.Â
I don’t remember Mary’s highlights. She sewed 6 whole dresses by candlelight to afford those.
Omg I adore the original show, Iâll be watching this for sure. I do hope itâs not as corny though lol
Hollywood has gone full tradlife
As long as you got a hot dad for Pa Ingalls đ
Please donât be bad đ
I don’t think this will follow the books since they cast an Indigenous girl to be Laura’s friend. I really am not a fan of that decision because I feel like it’s a spit in the face to the actual Indigenous people of that time to create an alternate reality where they become friends with a family that was pretty racist to them.
I will binge watch this, and I am bracing myself for disappointment.
I don’t think this is one of those things that needed to be remade.
No Carrie???

All I want to know is who is cast to play this terrorist and can they carry the torch

And I BETTER not see any instagram face in this đ€
This show scared the shit out of me as a child; particularly the very dark episodes, like the one with Silvia, the blind school fire, and Albertâs addictionđ„Ž. Are they promoting it as a wholesome family show?
I could have taken a few more seasons of Anne of green gables instead. đ
Why do we need this
They, and especially the girls, look way too modern.
Why.. m nothing will ever compete to the original
A suggestion for Little House fans. Read âCarolineâ by Sarah Miller. Itâs the retelling of the first book from Maâs perspective. Loved it!
I feel like they got kids who look way too similar to the sisters in the original. I had to double check and make sure this wasn’t actually Melissa Gilbert and the other girl photoshopped and deaged
Luke Bracey and Joe Alwyn: same guy, different accent.

the youtube dudebros who have never touched a single piece of media for little house on the prairie are gonna be soooo annoying about this
Will it last long enough for uncomfortable Almonzo moments
I canât believe they are remaking little house! Nooooo!
Netflix lighting ruins everything
Seems like a recession indicator tbhÂ
Looks like something I’d expect to see on Lifetime or Hallmark if I’m being honest.
Oh, no
Eww
Would much rather have another season of Anne with an E.
Is PaâŠ. is Pa a, shall I say, daddy? đ„”
Iâve worked with the little girl thatâs an actress in this. She is an absolute powerhouse omg
Mmm, this seems like a bad idea.
I grew up reading and loving the books. I even had a subscription to a Little House book club kit that sent out craft projects every month. But they are, fundamentally, propaganda. They were written to glamourize the American “frontier spirit” and the displacement and genocide of the Native Americans. Even a revisionist retelling (which this doesn’t seem to be, given the tone of the trailer) feels gross – it’s not just a fantasy story with made-up characters, these were real people who participated in that genocide. You could make an interesting adaptation that presented the racism of the books – Ma’s refrain of “the only good Indian is a dead Indian,” Laura demanding her father give her an Osage baby as a gift, the minstrel show – as baldly as possible and just let the audience sit with that. But this approach just does a disservice to everyone.
