Little House on The Prarie Was Like A Glorified After School Special?
That was the words of a critic who denounced LHOTP as "Cheesy" & "Preachy"! Do you think Little House became to preachy? It certainly wasn't cheesy. I don't think a baby being burned to death can be categorized as cheese. Do you???

Well, some of the stories DID border on the melodramatic, but I think this critic was a bit harsh.

No way.
The difference between Little House On The Prairie, and an Afterschool Special, was: Little House had excellent production values. Little House had excellent actors. Little House had excellent writers. And, Little House wasn't afraid to praise God. |

Amen. Also, the 'Afterschool Specials' didn't have the wacky Olesons.
