Little House on the Prairie, one of television’s top family dramas of all time, is finally available in a complete 60-disc DVD collection! In September of 1974, Little House on the Prairie made its television debut, and it has remained an all-time American family classic ever since. A top-rated series throughout its nine season run, the show’s timeless themes of love, morality and rich family values continue to capture the hearts of viewers around the world through its continued syndication. Based on the best-selling books by Laura Ingalls Wilder which chronicled the dramatic, gripping adventures of a young pioneer family’s struggle to build a new life for themselves on the American frontier of the 1870s, Little House on the Prairie was nominated for 17 Emmy and three Golden Globe awards.

 My Ultimate Favorite Tv series January 8, 2009
David Carlson (Bloomington, MN. USA)
Nothing but outstanding things to say about LHOTP. I collected the entire seasons has they were being released. This is a must have for everyone. You gotta thank those people for all the teachings and see where we are at in the world today.
I only wish I could meet any of the cast and say thank you in person.
An impressive, comprehensive collection!! January 7, 2009
Todd "Cat Lover"

Unlike a previous reviewer, I wasn't looking for a perfect, unedited collection. The fact that the three TV movies that ended the series are included only enhances this collection.
Who has time to watch NINE seasons of unedited episodes? If you're going to pay good money for that, at least buy the remastered, enhanced F/X "Star Trek HD" series or something similar.
These are the episodes I grew up with, and I enjoy watching them over and over again. My all-time favorite episode is the first season "Survival", which deals with bigotry and an unexpected blizzard.
As for packaging, this is quite possibly the most EFFECTIVE presentation I have ever seen in a large DVD collection. Two small magnets hold a sturdy book together, and it opens up into an actual ringed binder. Each "page" in the binder holds 3 DVDs on one side, and a description of their contents on the other.
In terms of presentation, ease of DVD use, and description of the contents of each, this is easily the BEST setup for a collection (and long-term storage) I have EVER seen. Usually DVD packaging is pretty flimsy, but NOT in this case!
This is an excellent purchase, especially if you can get it at a deep discount!
Little House Series--great Christmas gift for dad January 7, 2009
Cassie J. Doty (Cumberland MD)
My dad LOVES Little House on the Prairie (as do I). When I saw this collection advertised, I thought it would be the perfect gift. However it was out of my price range. I was thrilled to find it on Amazon at such a great price. My siblings and mom and I went together and bought it for him. Dad has been enjoying it every day since Christmas. Thanks for making my dad happy.
 LOW SOUND is a definite PROBLEM December 31, 2008
Christopher Cottrill (Miamisburg, OH USA)
It didn't bother me that the picture quality was the same as the previously released volumes, which I thought were fine. But I am upset that the sound is noticeably lower (and sometimes a little muffled). This did not occur on the Seasons 1 through 5 that I already owned, which proves the fact that the films being made in the 1970s is not the problem (nor is the sound a problem on any other 1960s or 1970s TV shows I have). No... the manufacturer has screwed up... and it's really annoying when the sound on the DVD musical introduction is loud as can be, and then the actual show starts and the sound drops by half the decibels, forcing one to turn the volume up on the TV to 100% capacity! It was so bad I thought I has a defective set, and had it replaced. The new one is exactly the same, so it's a mistake to be seen in all of these sets. It's probably better to buy the individual Season 1-9 sets even though you lose the cute and lovable packaging. One complaint about the packaging making it hard to get the DVDs in and out of is not valid, by the way. The Complete Set comes in a 3 ring binder. To get the DVDs out, you take the individual sheet that holds three DVDs out of the binder first -- then they slide out easily.
