There’s been weddings, deaths, and everything in between. Little House on the Prairie became a favorite series of many fans, broadcasting for nine seasons. This series included Melissa Gilbert as the main character, the always fiery and passionate Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Michael Langdon portrayed her father “Pa” Ingalls and Melissa Sue Anderson as Laura’s older sister, Mary. Together, this family faced some of the hardships that come with growing up, all while living through pioneer times.

“Little House on the Prairie was an enormous part of that cultural history,” Gilbert said during an interview with Parade. “Not just a cultural reflection of what the time was like from ’73 to ’83, but who we were before then by telling the stories of these pioneers and what their lives were like.”

“We had better teeth and were cleaner than what the reality was [she jokes], but the stories we were telling were very reflective of the time that we were living in,” she continued. “[Series star/executive producer] Michael Landon weaved in very topical stuff.”
