A new version of the Little House on the Prairie is in the works for television.
Anonymous Content, Paramount Television, and Friendly Family Productions are developing a one-hour dramatic series adaptation of Little House on the Prairie based on the bestselling novels by Laura Ingalls Wilder. Anonymous Content and Paramount Television Studios will serve as co-studios on the project.
Little House on the Prairie, based on Wilder’s novels, aired for nine seasons on NBC From September 1974 to May 1982. Starring Michael Landon, Melissa Gilbert, Karen Grassle, and Melissa Sue Anderson, the historical Western drama revolved around a family living on a farm in Plum Creek near Walnut Grove, Minnesota, in the late 1800s. The series aired with new title Little House: A New Beginning during the 1982-83 television season, following the exit of Landon and Grassle.
Former NBC executive Ed Friendly acquired the film and television rights to Wilder’s novels from Roger Lea MacBride and recruited Blanche Hanalis to write the teleplay for a two-hour pilot. Friendly asked Landon to direct the pilot; he agreed on the condition that he could also play lead character Charles Ingalls.
Peacock announced earlier this week that all nine seasons of the original series would be available for streaming on the service.
“More like WOKE House on the Prairie.”
Exactly. I can’t wait to find out how my homesteading pioneer ancestors REALLY lived.
Is it going to be realistic in a modern sense, with conflict between the trans characters and the lesbian characters?
In the new version, Laura and Nellie Olson will be a lesbian power couple rather than rivals.
You just know there will be more “diversity.”
There are some productions, both movies and tv shows, that no one with any sense should try to reboot.
Yup.
Hollywood and the Dems are determined to destroy everything that is good and wholesome about America. Its up to us to make sure we don't watch any such garbage from the slimy creeps from Hollywood.
Ping.
I didn’t like it the first time.......................
And Mr. Edwards is going to be the oh-so-flamboyant homosexual neighbor who spends way too much time with the young boys but everyone — especially the women (who are all named “Karen” for some inexplicable reason) — insists is totally harmless.
It will be based on a diverse family living in a housing project on the South Side of Chicago.
There will be plenty of minority characters because rural Minnesota was crawling with them in the 1800s
Throw is some sex scenes and you might get more male viewership.
Let me guess, everyone on the prairies is black and gay. Except for the Klan members that torment and bully them.
The little schoolhouse will be run by Professor Wokey McWokerson.
Let me guess, race mixing, faggotry and gender pronoun horse poop.
Melissa Gilbert will probably have a hand in corrupting this reboot just like her sister Sara has defiled The Conners after the short-lived reboot of Roseanne before Roseanne Barr was canned.
Little Homo On the Prairie
We used to ride our dirt bikes and take our 4 wheel drives into Gillibrand and Party in the Saloon from the show, the whole set was there for the Original show, this is in Simi Valley. Last time I was there it started snowing on us at 1:00AM while we were all drinking in the saloon with our trucks out front, 30 years plus ago
