Rating: Summary: "Home is the nicest word there is." Review: I grew up watching the reruns of Little House on the Prairie every day when I got home from kindergarten. My mom taped them, so my family owns 170 of the 200 episodes, from Episode 1, "Harvest of Friends," to the final episode, "Hello and Goodbye." Somehow, however, we missed taping "Premiere," so when I bought this DVD, I had never seen it. Well, I was a bit disappointed that in two hours the Ingalls family never reaches Walnut Grove (I was looking forward to seeing introductions of our favorite characters!), but I'm still very glad to own this gem. I know from experience that VHS tapes degrade with time and many viewings, but DVD will last forever. The pilot introduces Mr. Edwards (with a much thinner beard!) as well as the Ingalls family and includes some memorable moments between Pa and Laura. Probably the best scene of all is the classic "Errand for Santa," featuring a snow-caked Victor French who braves a blizzard to get his Christmas gifts to their recipients on time. Overall, a beautiful beginning to an endearing show.

Rating: Summary: Goodtimes Video Tape Version! Review: I'm reviewing the video tape put out by Goodtimes Home Video and it only contains the pilot movie that started the television show. Little House on The Prairie was one of my favorite shows as a child. I was Nine years old when this TV movie aired for the first time and I liked it and grew up watching the show. This Goodtimes tape is okay but kind of grainy. Complete seasons of Litle House on the Prairie have been put on DVD, I think there is about 4 seasons that are available right now and I'm hoping to someday buy complete seasons on DVD!

Rating: Summary: Classic Tv Show Review: In this Dvd are the pilot episode of Little House of the Praire not a double lenght movie as the package says. The transfer quality is good as well the sound. The only thing is the absence of any subtitles or captions necesary for international customers like me. I want to see also a good show featuring M Landon and Victor French Highway to Heaven released soon on Dvd. Meanwhile I will collect most of the LHOTP Dvds.
Rating: Summary: Little House is outstanding Review: Out of all the TV shows I've seen, Little House on the Prairie grasps the concept of family values better than any other. Prairie life was obviously hard, but the Ingalls family masterfully tranforms it and uses family love and togetherness to make life on the frontier seem worth living. In this two-episode set, you get two memorable shows: "Premiere Movie" and "Remember Me." In the premiere show, the Ingalls leave the Big Woods in Wisconsin to make a better life for themselves. They settle on the Indian Territory in Kansas and struggle to triumph over encounters with Indians, fires, births, and new beginnings. An overall effective movie which shows how well these young actors and actresses clicked as the Ingalls family. They set the tone for a wonderful TV series with good, strong actors portraying this extraordinary frontier family. Of the two shows in this set, "Remember Me" is my favorite. In fact, it is one of my favorites in the whole series. It's very heartrending and emotional, but it is absolutely wonderful. Now the Ingalls family is living in the friendly town of Walnut Grove. There, a young widow named Julia finds out that she is going to die. Knowing that her time left to live is very limited, she asks Charles Ingalls to help her find a home for her three children. Julia passes away before this task is completed, leaving Charles responsible for finding these three newly-orphaned children a place to live. As Charles realizes how difficult it is to find a family who will take on all three little ones, he is forced to make one of the most difficult decisions of his life. I won't give away the ending, but I will say that it is a wonderful ending that will leave you in tears. Don't wait any longer to experience "Little House on the Prairie" if you have not already. There is a little something for everyone in it. It's the story of a young, hard-working family with more love than you can ask for. Michael Landon is outstanding and Patricia Neal is incredible as Widow Sanderson in the "Remember Me" episode. "Remember me with smiles and laughter, for that is how I will remember you all. If you can only remember me with tears, then don't remember me at all"--This quote from "Remember Me" includes some of the most effective words I have ever seen on television or in life. Sometimes it only takes a few words to say it all, and this is one of those times. I definitely recommend this movie to anyone. Two great episodes with a good, moral message to give. "Little House" has a story to tell--a story you don't want to miss hearing.
Rating: Summary: Excellent viewing Review: The chemestry on LHOTP was evident in this first show. Was great to see this classic again. The dvd doesn't have any extras.
Rating: Summary: Great movie, but incorrect description of contents Review: The description of this dvd states that the Premiere Movie plus the two hour episode Remember Me are included on this disc. However, when I received it I learned that only the Premiere Movie is on the disc. I'll keep it, since I love the show and it was still a good price, but the description made me believe I would be getting four hours of Little House, not two.
