    • What is your opinion of the TV series "Little House on the Prairie"?

    At first glance, it appears to be good Catholic fare.

    • It's about the life of a family of Protestants. I read them growing up (Lutheran) -- they are slightly interestng, but there are no Catholic principles there. (Didn't see the TV show though.

    This must be one of the most puritanical, un-Catholic statements about a television show I have ever seen.

    • The acting is pretty bad, the story lines trite and the "Christianity" superficial at best.

    • We used to burst out laughing at the bit in the beginning, or end of the show when baby Carrie fell over in the grass, when we watched it as kids.

    We must have been sadists in the 1970s I guess.

    • In one episode when they are dealing with some Indians, Mary grumbles that they are "heathens" and Michael Landon's character sternly rebukes here thusly:

    "They may not read the same Bible we do or worship God the same way but they are his children too."

    Landon was a Jєω, I believe. I don't know if the historical Pa Ingalls would have said that.

    • Fond memories of the times when I used to watch it.

    Protestant or not, it's harmless especially when compared with today's trash.

    • If you're going to go Protestant family show (because are there even any good Catholic family shows?), go with The Waltons.
