Despite the missing slipcover, the menu difference and some other changes, the set is still worth getting. Hopefully seasons 8 and 9 get a Blu release too.
OMG that series was awful. Sugary, saccharine sweet along with terrible acting. Have many female friends who loved it, must be a chick thing, but myself and many guy friends thought it was horrible.
I was already watching the MTM show, MASH and other more mature shows. Even at the age of 11, I was already a critic.
Subject dropped, geez. I always thought this was a place to express our opinions, good or bad.
Been a member since way back in the old days, 16-17 years now, so I know the rules.
I'm done with this thread, good-bye.
Although I do find as a general rule it's quite pointless posting in threads where the subject is something you have no interest in whatsoever. Debating the good and bad of a show/ movie/ release is fun but just popping on to say you hate it seems a waste of time.
I agree. It seemed more like trolling then anything. I don't care for reality shows too much, but I'm not going to seek out all the reality show threads and post a bunch of negative stuff. I really can't think of any show I would want to go in and trash. I simply don't watch shows I don't like and usually don't have the urge to comment on them.
It's not even original to use words like sugary and saccharine too trash Little House. People have been doing it for years. As for it being a chick thing, I've known plenty of males who enjoy Little House and this thread and threads at other sites are full of males who enjoy Little House.
I normally don't feed trolls, so this is probably all I'm going to say about the subject.
I think sugary and saccharine is an accurate observation of the series for many of the episodes but I don't see that as a negative thing at all. It's an observation I think younger males may make negatively but once they've grown up and have their own families they are likely to change their views.
And it seems very sensible to skip any thread that is about a title you have no interest in whatsoever.
There are some classic tv shows where a lot of the episodes are bad but if you enjoy the good ones I think it's fun to debate whether everyone else thinks similarly about which episodes are bad.
Some Prairie episodes I find extremely dull - usually the dream ones but with over 200 episodes you can't expect every one to be a classic. Even The X Files has a fair few duds
I got an email from Amazon the other day giving me an April delivery date for the season 8 Blu here in the UK yet the listing on Amazon still shows no release date??!!??
Oh, by the way I watched MTM when I was a kid too. Didn't care much for MASH though. I watched all kinds of shows when I was a kid!
