Little House on the Prairie - Season 3, Disc 1

Little House on the Prairie - Season 3, Disc 1 (1976) starring Michael Landon, Karen Grassle, Melissa Gilbert, Melissa Sue Anderson, Alison Arngrim. Little House on the Prairie is comfort food for the mind and heart, and this disc from Season 3 doesn't fail. There are four episodes on the disc, a total of about 176 minutes, or nearly three hours of schmaltz. Two of the episodes involve Laura Ingalls' (Gilbert) sister Mary (Anderson), and two involve a feud between Laura and Nellie Oleson (Arngrim) over a horse. If you've ever seen an episode of Little House, you pretty much know what to expect. Good and right win in the end, and all is right with the world. (English subtitles are not supplied, but closed captions save the day.) Grade: A
