Little House on the Prairie: Spin-off Ideas

As a take on the popular DL spin-off thread, let’s think of popular LHOTP spin-off ideas.

How about Feud: Mary vs Laura - what happens when the sisters disagree as grown ups? Nellie Knows Best - America’s favorite know-it-all schools us in absolutely everything. Return to Walnut Grove - rebuilding the town for the next generation. Little Schoolhouse on the Prairie - all about the schoolhouse and the kids who learn there. The Real Housewives of Walnut Grove - drama in the eyes of the prairie wives. Oleson - the untold story of the Oleson clan. The CW’s Little House on the Prairie (2022) - more of a reboot - with a D-list sexy Gen-Z racially and ethnically diverse cast.

Share your ideas below.

I’d like to see a spin off about the adventures of a morphine addicted Albert trying to score. I can just imagine the schemes and adventures he’d get into looking for a fix.

Miss Eliza Jane Wilder gets her own show called

Four Eyed Nerd On The Prairie

Rose Wilder Lane would actually be a good subject for a prestige series. She rubbed shoulders with many of the major writers and public intellectuals of the early 20th century, traveled all over world, and aged into a nutty, toxic right winger who ultimately burned most of the important relationships in her life. She also bequeathed the rights to the books upon her death to a precocious grifter she took on as a sort of son, who used the money to build the Libertarian Party of America.

It warms my heart to see how DL honors Katherine "Scottie" MacGregor. Her Harriet was truly iconic to many a gayling.

R23- My grandmother watched Little House On The Prairie many years ago and her favorite character was not Nellie but Mrs. Oleson.

by Anonymousreply 24February 15, 2023 8:26 PM

R23- Mrs. Oleson as a nurse on Mannix probably just a year or two before Little House went on the air. I am surprised Mrs. Oleson is so nice to the Negro patient.
