Amazon.com Little House on the Prairie, one of television’s top family dramas of all time, is finally available in a complete 60-disc DVD collection! In September of 1974, Little House on the Prairie made its television debut, and it has remained an all-time American family classic ever since. A top-rated series throughout its nine season run, the show’s timeless themes of love, morality and rich family values continue to capture the hearts of viewers around the world through its continued syndication. Based on the best-selling books by Laura Ingalls Wilder which chronicled the dramatic, gripping adventures of a young pioneer family’s struggle to build a new life for themselves on the American frontier of the 1870s, Little House on the Prairie was nominated for 17 Emmy® and three Golden Globe® awards.

Great Stories For The Family October 12, 2009 Rufino L. Dela Rosa (Philippines) Many years ago I had watched this series, Little House on the Prairie, on television. I was just starting my family then. I would say, the series influenced the way I raised and took care of my family. I am now a grandfather. Watching the videos now with my wife, brings back fond memories. And watching it with my newly married daughter and her husband, gives a me nice feeling that they are also being inspired by the great family stories in raising their own family. Great DVD collection to own.
Litle house on the Prairie complete series October 9, 2009 T. Forster (Victoria, Australia) I am very pleased to have this box set in my collection. I am however disappointed that it was described as new and sealed from factory.When I recieved it I was disappointed to find it damaged and not sealed as the discription said.Some episodes are not as good a quality as others. But I am still pleased to have it.
Little House on The Prairie DVD Set September 28, 2009 Steve P. Paynter 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for a 09 Christmas gift for my mother. She always loved watching the show so when I found I could get the entire set for her & in the nice case it comes in at a great price I had to go for it. I'm sure she will enjoy watching it for hours during our long WI winters when she is couped up inside.
Life and times on the prairie September 23, 2009 Melvin Jay Babb (Lewiston Idaho) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is one of the best shows that ever aired on TV. I remember watching some of the episodes in reruns and it was hard to keep back the tears. The few episodes that I've seen so far is pretty good quality video and sound wise. The opening credits seem to missing on a few of the episodes-not really a big deal.
So why 4 stars? Well it's the packageing. I love the cover art work-the beautiful wagon-but cover art is no subsitute for stable packageing. I like the Binder idea-the abilty to turn pages like a book-each page has 3 dvds each-on the other side of the page is a short decription for each episode. While the binder idea is fine, The discs can fall out of the holders as you are turning pages-this causes scratches to appear on the discs and causes playback problems. You just need to be careful as you're turning pages-just push the discs back in the page to make them more secure. Even then, you still need to be very careful.
What you get is sixty discs of pure heaven! You get the all 9 seasons(though not the pilot movie-which is another reason for my 4 star rating), 3 movies filmed after the cancelation and 3 special feauture discs.
There's been a lot of talk about the fact the these appear to be edited syndicated versions. This does not really bother me. What I think happened is that the missing scenes are lost and haven't been found. This is not the fault of the company that released the dvds(though not including the pilot movie is inexcuseable)I agree with another reviewer who said it all depends on what you expect.
In spite of all this and the minor problems, no one can deny that this show is the best family show that ever was on tv. This show will move you-tug your emotions and put tears in you eyes.
So should you buy this set? Yes! Despite the weaknesses of the set and the packageing, The wholesome family entertainment is good enough reason to get this set.
The series with English subtitle or not? September 10, 2009 H. Tien (Vietnam) I want to buy this series but I want to make sure it's with English subtitle because I cannot listen English very well.
Many thanks
