I recently mentioned to my co-workers that I started a blog recapping old TV shows, including Little House on the Prairie and The Brady Bunch. One person mentioned to me that her kids had been watching Little House on COZI TV before it was dropped, but now she doesn’t know where it’s streaming. I said to myself, “Self, this is something to write about.” And so it is. Here is where you can catch Little House on the Prairie streaming as of November 2025. Where is Little House on the Prairie Streaming? (Subscription) Amazon Prime Video Currently, I’m streaming Little Continue Reading
Little House On the Prarie Recaps
The Ingalls family is leaving the Big Woods of Wisconsin for Kansas and Minnesota. Join us as we recap the Little House on the Prairie Pilot and the original “Little House on the Prairie” series and chronicle their adventures.
Little House on the Prairie S1, E6: If I Should Wake Before I Die
Today, we’re going to recap Little House on the Prairie, Season 1, Episode 6: If I Should Wake Before I Die. It already sounds morbid. If I Should Wake Before I Die Warning: I have thoughts about “If I Should Wake Before I Die,” and they’re not all positive. Just wanted to make that clear before you invest time in reading this. We open with a pair of older hands playing “Camptown Races” on a stringed lap instrument that I don’t know what it’s called. As the camera pans out, we see a smiling Laura staring at the playing hands Continue Reading
S1E5 The Love of Johnny Johnson
The Love of Johnny Johnson is a title from Little House on the Prairie episodes that has popped into my head now and then over the years. I don’t know why, because I don’t remember a thing about this episode, and I’m watching it decades after my first viewing, as if it were new. Other than “Country Girls,” and maybe the Little House on the Prairie Pilot, it’s the only title I remember from this entire series. Here we are—opening credits. Ma and Dad pull up in the wagon. Girls and a dog are running. Carrie falls. Laughter ensues. Over Continue Reading
Little House on the Prairie: S1E4: Mr. Edwards’ Homecoming
Welcome back, Little House fans! Today, we’re going to take a look back at Season 1, Episode 4 of Little House on the Prairie: Mr. Edwards’ Homecoming. This title is a little off-putting. If I remember correctly, Mr. Edwards is the “wildcat from Tennessee.” So, how can it be a homecoming for him to come to Missouri? We open with a man in a rowboat, going to a busy dock. What man, which rowboat, and what dock, you might ask? I have no idea. I also have no idea why there’s a palm tree in the background. Let’s learn together. Continue Reading
Little House on the Prairie: S1E3 100 Mile Walk
Hey recappers! Today, we’re going to summarize the next episode of Little House on the Prairie, “100 Mile Walk.” We start, of course, with the familiar music. Girls running, Ma and Pa looking on in delight, and Carrie falling in the grass as Carrie does. We open with Pa standing in an immense wheat field, thanking the heavens for his bounty. Fun Fact: In real life, despite years of trying, Pa never had a successful crop. He was not the farmer we were led to believe with TV Charles Ingalls. Pa Ingalls Grows a Wheat Crop Pa has the girls Continue Reading
Little House on the Prairie: S1E2 Country Girls
I’m really excited today, recappers. We’re diving into Season 1, Episode 2 of Little House on the Prairie, “Country Girls.” Ladies and gentlemen, Nellie Oleson is in the house! I was only ten when this episode aired in 1974, and while I may have seen it once or twice as a kid since then, it’s been decades. If it’s not apparent, I haven’t watched Little House since it first aired, and even then, I only watched the first few seasons. As a fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s historic fiction series, and a bigger fan of all the books and biographies Continue Reading
Little House on the Prairie: S1E1 – A Harvest of Friends
I listed “Harvest of Friends” as Season 1, Episode 1, the first episode of “Little House on the Prairie.” Please note that I obtained my information from IMDb, Wikipedia, Little House on the Prairie Wiki, and the boxed set. Originally, the Little House on the Prairie pilot was a TV movie and not counted as an “episode.” I know that’s how the streaming services currently list Little House, but we’re going pre-streamers here at Recapping the Oldies. Now then… When we last saw the Ingalls family in the Little House on the Prairie Pilot episode, the family had to leave Kansas Continue Reading
Little House on the Prairie Pilot: S1E0
We begin our recaps with the Little House on the Prairie pilot, a made-for-TV movie that originally aired in March 1974. This was America’s introduction to the TV Ingalls family. We were soon to learn that the series that was to become Little House on the Prairie bore little resemblance to the historical fiction books written by Laura Ingalls Wilder,. They bore even less resemblance to the true-life adventures of the Ingalls and Wilder families. Little House on the Prairie Pilot: Opening Scene The Little House on the Prairie Pilot opens in the snow-covered Big Woods of Wisconsin, where the Continue Reading
