Little House Cast Interviews | Dean Butler | ALMANZO WILDER | COZI TV 

The music scores were amazing on this show he’s so right

Agreed. Very classy, down to earth guy.

Yeah, it's so neat to view through the actor's eyes, seeing how wonderful the acting work was for him, not just the celebrity stuff, but a true actor, and none of that afraid to or don't bother watching his own work or himself in the piece.

Zaldamo.🤣

@@jonlate4581 haha yes!!

Yes, that was so funny. But, I cringed every time Laura called him Manly. Maybe not when I was 10, but in watching as an adult, lol. I LOVE Little House on the Prairie so much!

I was in grade school when this show was running. I loved it so much. I am re-reading the books right now. Such great memories.

Traduci in italiano

I was 4 years old when the series started and my sister and I had such a crush on Almanzo. We had read the books so knew that he and Laura would end up together. But now the age difference hits much harder than before.

Where can I find the show?

@@lisadiconti I don't know either.....

@@brendaross3961 I watched on my laptop.

Pluto has a channel where it's on 24/7

​@@lisadicontiPluto has a channel where it's on 24/7.

Yeah, it's perfect. 🎶

My #1 FAV episode too is "Sweet Sixteen" -- Laura: "It's like I'm wearing your colors" ... Almanzo: "I hope so" 🥰

my favorite also where Almazo walks to Laura❤ lots of tears

My favorite is "Country Girls". ❤

Oh, yeah, the way he says, "You look different," and the way he looks, when he says it and how she says, "It's like I'm wearing your colors." ❤

@@DawnaOlson Yes! ❤

I wanted Liza Jane to marry Harv too!

The letter that Liza Jane wrote in her diary about giving the house to Laura and Manly brings Me to tears! Liza Jane made a sacrifice for her brother and Laura knowing that She was destined to be alone!

Him and Jon kept their locks

I made that one year for my dad's birthday dinner 😂 he said he liked it. I wish I could know if he really did or not.

It's a romanticized version of the past. The late 19th century was actually a terrible place. The average lifespan was short. Disease was everywhere. Alcoholism was widespread. The country was in a depression in the early 1890s.

@@PapagenoMF And they struggled. The Ingalls family really struggled. But they also loved each other and that is the lesson that families can take from the story.

I think they do but realized "reality shows" were cheaper, cheap thrills for a certain demographic and why bother with shows like LHOP or ER or MASH or anything that takes time and effort to write. You slowly saw the changes on TV and that's why many like myself just have an antenna now, why bother. Streaming isn't perfect but except for Call the Midwife on PBS, there aren't many shows worth watching.

And let's not forget Karen Grassle's book where she related that Michael said,"Women smell really bad down there". This is when they were filming the bedtime scenes on a male dominated set. Michael also bullied Karen when they were in salary negotiations and reduced her part, again according to her book.

And let's not forget thst Michael Landon is the ONLY person in Hollywood who EVER gave her a decent acting job. Or have I missed something? And why did she stick around for 9 years? ML was known to have a sick sense of humor. Most of his co-stars laughed about it. But she chose to sensationalized it to make some money. And now during the 50th anniversary tour she can make some money by saying GOOD things about him. What does that say about HER? Still making a living thanks to Michael Landon . Hmmmm

@@sueannbellucci4304 He was the boss. If the boss makes a joke, there are going to be people who laugh because they want to keep their jobs. Btw, he did the same thing to Katherine MacGregor, had animosity toward her about her salary, that's why they didn't get along well and she refused to be in the final movie. Also, she has done movies. One of her co-stars was Louis Gossett, Jr.

And all these years later, anyone who worked with him THEN - Dean Butleir, Matt and Pat Labyorteaux, Melissa and Allison all say he had a wicked sense of humor. One of the funniest people they ever knew. And he told jokes that were gross and probably inappropriate but they weren't offended by them. And truth be told if he were alive today he would probably be embarrassed and apologetic. We have all had an education regarding this kind of humor over the past 20 years. He still was the ONLY Hollywood person who hired her and gave her the best and only acting opportunity of her entire career. So what is the point? What is the take away? He wasn't perfect but he was responsible for 2 wonderful life affirming family shows that are still watched by millions of people all over the world. Thousands of people are celebrating him and his LHOP , including K Grassle - at the 50th anniversary celebrations. So what is your point?

@@sueannbellucci4304 No; he's not. She's had other roles. Re: his jokes. She said there were very few females present filming those scenes. The great majority of people present were men. Re: Karen Grassle. There's an interview on RU-vid where she says she was with other cast members and they spoke positively about LHOTP and she did not agree. Re: staying. She stayed because it was her decision and her right to do so and she was following the advice of her lawyer.

Ok, As President of the Laura Ingalls Wilder Legacy and Research Association, Dean is right. IRL-the correct pronunciation is Al-MAN-ZO; but the tv show got the pronunciation wrong-AL-MON-ZO. Dean has done a ton of research on the real Almanzo Wilder and he says it correctly. He has joked…MON-is TV; MAN is real Almanzo Wilder. He is a lovely, gracious man.

@@SarahManley thank you so much for clearing that up!😃

Yes it's a part one and part two but part one is longer than an hour.

@@ashleighburroughs3581 I thought so. I think I watched just part of it another time.

@@julienielsen3746 yeah that is one of my favorite episodes!!

How do you know?
