That’s just what America needs. A dark, drunken, rapey, abusive version of Little House on the Prairie.

Laura and Nellie will explore their sexuality in a lesbian relationship.

Reverend Alden will be portrayed as a lecher/pedophile/hypocrite.

Doc Baker will be a closeted homosexual.

A freed slave family will move into Walnut Grove and every White male in town will be part of a lynch mob except for Pa Ingalls.

Mr. Olson will beat Harriet and Nellie and be the greediest shopkeeper ever.

Ma will be a proto-feminist.

That’s deranged. She didn’t put it in her book for a reason. That should be respected, and there is more than enough murder porn out there.

We don’t need yet another revisionist western where everyone dresses like a stumblebum, emits a stream of filthy language, the women act like modern feminist college girls, and every man is an overall reprobate.

Maybe we need an updated Huckleberry Finn that shows slaves being raped and beaten and Huck laughing at it before he knew Jim the runaway slave.

My brothers didn’t either, but my little sister and I loved it.

OH, a remake (YUK).

I would watch the original and go back in time . . . .

Maybe not so far from the truth.

I was a tomboy, so Laura appealed to me for a while.

The punchline was a killer!

OK, very good.

I’ll remember that to recall at the proper time - THX.

I read the books about her daughter.

The girl was a real brat.

And I don’t have such high hopes for their reboot of “The Chronicles Of Narnia”.

This is Netflix not Disney. The difference: Disney executives are hiding under the bed, while Netflix’s are inside the closet...

Oy. I can imagine

Night agent is now a popular show. I gave in. The kids all like it. It is so hard to not say anything. It is so stoopid. The writing is so awful. The premises the behavior. They think fiction means people would never do this in real life so watch this and pretend people in these situations would do this but the would never do these things

What a waste of time and attention

The tv show didn’t really follow the books a lot. There was a little similarity.

Lord just no...

Their destruction of Anne of Green Gables wasn’t enough?

The original TV series didn’t stay faithful not the books hardly at all.

They could have and made a great TV series out of it as there’s plenty in the books that would make great plot lines.
