Dean is an amazing guy. Apparently he can't understand why people loves Laura, Almanzo and other LHOTP characters so much. He can't understand what a great job he did at the show, and how deep the show entered in our hearts.

These Youtube video tributes is a way to say "thank you" to him and to all the "Little House's" staff. Love

Vanesa.

I don't think so, because it's really a type of fundraiser for the Wilder Homestead--a way for Dean to help them support what they do.

I got my copy today. It is awesome. I had tears at the end, it was sooo good.
I called the homestead and gave them my billing info, even though I had preordered online. I'm so glad I did. I just couldn't wait.

Oh wow, I am going to HAVE to have this!! Thanks for the info! Thumbsup Glad you enjoyed it Marilyn!

Edit*...I just went to the Youtube vid. That was done so well! Dean looks great---so cute in his basball cap! Wink I was surprised to hear even himself pronounce Almanzo with 'man'...I always thought it was pronounced "Mahn"! That's how everyone said his name in the show!!! How strange.

Ok, so is the "Remembering the Last Farewell" something totally separate then? Has that been released? I definitely need that!

Dean actually blogged about the pronunciation of Manly's name at http://legacydocumentaries.com/blog/?p=50 It will tell you where they got the pronunciation for the show--which I was surprised about.

As for "Remembering the Last Farewell", that is going to be included as part of the bonus content on the new 60-disc Mega-Pack that's coming out in November. Here's more of what you can expect with the new set: http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Little-House-Prairie-The-Complete-Series/10322 BTW, Dean and his staff produced most of it. Go Dean!!!!

WOW...I'm surprised about that too Cheryl! Now I don't know which way I side as far as the 'correct' pronounciation, after reading Dean's views and the responses! For me, I can only think of him as Al "MON" zo, simply because that's what I grew up hearing, but if Laura herself called him "Al "MAN" zo on the recording, then I have to believe that's truly how it was prounounced.

I am hoping for a nice big discount from Best Buy on the new release of dvds...(hubby works a second job there)...My Dr. Quinn dvds ended up being almost 50% off each, so if that's the case, this might actually be a feasible Christmas present for me! Cheer I may have to give up the 'usual' clothes and home decor stuff, but this would be WELL worth that sacrifice! Wink Wink

When I was reading what Dean wrote, I thought of the recording of Laura's voice that I heard when I visited Rocky Ridge. I would definitely go with Laura's pronunciation. Personally I wouldn't really trust Roger Lea MacBride. He took one of Rose's novels that was loosely based on her life and retitled it as an autobiography. I also don't like that he took a fictional character from one of Rose's books and put him in his Rose series as if he was actually a part of the Wilders's lives. But that's just my opinion.
