New Member!! LHOTP fan since I can remember

LHOTP is one of only a few shows in which I've seen every episode (the others are The Brady Bunch, Roseanne, The Wonder Years, Boston Legal, and Night Court.....I would also add The Jersey Shore but no one wants to really admit to that!)

When I was a kid I always thought Michael Landon looked a lot like my dad. I could somehow relate to ML more as being a father figure when I watched the show. I am also my father's daughter so I can relate to Laura. Hence, getting into this show was really easy for me.

I think the only thing I don't care for about LHOTP, and maybe this is beingl picky, was the show has a "blue tinge" to the film. Has anyone else noticed this? It's like the film they used was of a lower quality or maybe since it was the early 70s it hasn't aged well? In later episodes this isn't as apparent. Maybe the DVDs corrected this and they are "remastered".

I know I haven't said a lot about me...I am from Florida, in my mid 30s, like the Muppets, and work in the dazzling world of health insurance...ha ha! Cheers!

Hope you enjoy your time here....

Well Kermit, there is always room for another frog in our prairie pond.
LH came a long way as far as the film....I do believe the dvds are of good quality though. If there is any wear on them it will be from me watching them way too much. Jersery Shore..... My junk show is Teen Mom.


I'm glad to see someone else from the south. I'm in Texas. I do not like the Muppets or dealing with my health insurance. lol
You can be my partner in dealing with hurricanes tho.
Welcome aboard!

Hi, Kermit. A pleasure of meeting you.

Welcome, Kermit! Can't say I ever noticed that blue tinge.

Kermit, watch what happens......
Like Rob, I haven't knoticed a blue tinge either.

Welcome, Kermit! Your avatar is great!

I haven't noticed any blue tinge, either. And I can't say that I recall ever having seen it when I originally watched it.

Welcome Kermit!!!!

Kerm, one thing you should know is we got laws around here - laws about misspellings. And the laws in these parts are me. Is me. Well, you know what I mean. Lawbreakers like young Joseph here think they're being "cool" or "groovy" when they misspell words. But Fife will catch them. Oh yes, he will catch them.



As you were.

Yeah, Rob is the Cop!

Never noticed that either.

Welcome to our prairie! Glad to have you!

I misspelled being as beingl because I was typing to fast...but Barney missed it! lol

Yeah, I know it sounds strange but the show has like a lower-grade film. I am a film/movie nerd so I noticed it right away...even as a kid. Like I said, they are probably cleaned up and remastered for DVD. I hope! I may purchase the DVDs soon.

Well, as I like to say, Fife is cruel, but he's not mean. I have no idea what that means. I just like to say it.

Oh hi! Welcome here!

Welcome to our happy prairie, Kermit! Yes. I've always noticed that the show looked as a lower-grade film...Which was really a pity, since all in it was great: costumes, hairdoss, furniture...I've always tought, that the pilot movie and the early seasons looked too dark to my taste. In them, you can hardly notice that Charles had nice blue eyes!

Vanesa.

P.D: Are you a fan of Kermit the frog? I like him a great deal!

I think you found another home here. You get it.

I am indeed a Kermit/Muppets fan, thanks again for the welcome!

no problem.you should invite miss piggy.

Sorry I missed this!

Kermitfan, meet another Kermitfan! As a kid I was all things Kermit. T-shirts, watch, shoes, puppet, YOU NAME IT. The first movie I ever saw in the theater, at 10 years old, was "The Muppet Movie", and the rest was history. We have a recording of me singing "Rainbow Connection" as a kid, which is hilarious. I took my 'grown' boys to see The Muppets this year (the new one) and totally cried my eyes out when Kermit sang the Rainbow Connection. I know my boys wanted to crawl in a hole and die.


'Nough of that....it's a given that you and I are kindred spirits.

And, I do know what you're talking about, regarding the film quality. I do think that was typical of the 'times', and honestly, I LOVE the 'old' Little Houses for that reason. Love the nostalgia of it, just like the nostalgia of the premise of the show itself. Once they got into the later seasons, it just 'felt' 80's to me. Yes, the film was 'nice' to view, but it wasn't nearly as enjoyable for me as the original seasons. I know, I'm weird!

Welcome!
