Yet another child shines as a great actor
23 December 2023
The second episodes of this fully renewed season with a faster and different opening bit is where Shannen Doherty moves us from emotion to emotion.

I guess this was what Michael Landon was great at: Finding young talents and mentoring them to perfection for the ultimate taste he wanted us to get from Little House on the Praire.

There are times I get the feeling all this drama borders agitation, but on the other hand, the scenes are long and dense, with notable touches. On the emotional front, LHOTP is way more memorable than almost every contemporary show that tries to capture the imagination of families.

This season is literally LHOTP: The Next Generation. I wonder what would happen if they could continue on into the 20th century, kinda like Roots had done with much fewer episodes.
