Yes, a huge deal. A Fraternity brother of mine was on the show the last 4 years and his is involved in many of the observances of the 50th anniversary. Hard to believe it has been 50 years.

Yes, it's another one of those things hitting me this year that dang time moves fast and I might be getting old

I never watched it.

es, it's another one of those things hitting me this year that dang time moves fast and I might be getting old

I've been experiencing that for quite a long time now, haha. I do like to watch the old time shows on MeTV, Cozi TV, Antenna TV and similar. Good quality viewing, so different than today's offerings.

As for LHOTP, I was not a viewer back then.

I was obsessed with the books and series as a child. Great memories

Read the books as a child as well as Carrie Woodlawn.. loved the books and watched the series, 50 years, oh my.

It was just ok to watch when I was a teenager. Definitely have never felt the need to watch the reruns.

I wasn't either until my friend started with the show and started talking about how Michael Landon had surrounded himself with the best in the industry....and that everything worked together so well. Cinematography, sound, music, lighting. So I never watched for the story line, but for how everything worked together. Amazing for a weekly TV show, movie quailty.

I loved watching the show while growing up. I remember wishing Michael Landon was my dad, also loved watching him on reruns of Bonanza. And of course I had a huge crush on Dean Butler(Almanzo). I read all the books and still have them. I recently reread them all during Covid times. I love all the descriptions of the food, lol.

I saw every episode, and it's hard to believe that it's been 50 years!

Big fan of the books and the show. I went to Laura Ingalls Wilder Grade School in SD. Still have the set of books to this day.

Watched it every morning at 6am on TBS when I was young. My dad would call and ask which episode it was and we’d discuss which storyline it was. Outside of a few episodes I haven’t watched in years.

Did make an Amtrak stop in Mankato SD once and was like, I know this town from LHOTP. lol

We visited the family site in DeSmet South Dakota

I remember the show from back in the day, I liked it.
