LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE
rating: 1

MY FAMILY AND I HAVE ENJOYED THE LAURA INGALLS WILDER BOOKS AND THE TV SHOW, HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASE 1-4 OF THE DVDS AND WE ARE GREATLY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE INFERIOR QUALITY OF THE DVDS. WE LOVE THE SERIES AND IT IS A SHAME THAT THESE TIMELESS STORIES AND GENIUS OF MICHAEL LANDON HAS BEEN DONE WITH SUCH POOR QUALITY.

5th Season of Little House on the Prairie
rating: 5

There is a one simple reason why I love the 5th Season of Little House on the Prairie. I loved the part about Laura being so helpful to a little city orphan named Albert.

My sweetest part of all, was when Charles and his family decided to adopt Albert, since Caroline gave birth to a baby boy...but he died of a serious illness not long after his birth.

Excellent

Little House Season 5

Great Family watching. The sound quality is fair. Hard to hear in some spots. Picture quaility is great.

Great Season, Sub-par DVD transfer, Horrible Editing
rating: 3

Little House on the Prairie was really moving along when it reached season 5. Matthew Laborteaux was added as Albert who really added some depth and dimensions to the show, especially after Mary loses her sight and moves to Winoka.

The quality of the DVD for some of the episodes, as indicated by other reviewers, ranges from good, to okay, to down-right horrible. I've collected a number of television DVDs, and I have to say that this is by far the worst one in terms of quality. I mean, how difficult is it to transfer it over correctly? No one else seems to have had the trouble that Imavision has had.

Another note is that the editing is horrific. Little House episodes always went to commercial breaks with the classic "fade out." You'll note in a many of these episodes, there is an immediate cut from a scene. Unfortunately, these episodes are NOT complete. There are many parts missing in various episodes. I know that these scenes are not "lost" or "missing," because I saw them just the other day when the show was on a television network.

Understand that my complaints are due to the lack of quality that has been put into this DVD rather than with a show that I grew up with and loved to watch every week.

I can only hope that enough complaints may prompt NBC to put out the kind of DVDs that they are known for. You would think they would have put more effort toward one of the best family shows of all time.

I encourage anyone who is unhappy with their product to e-mail imavision and let them know. Perhaps with enough response, they might one day be prompted to giving us a truly complete season.

Note: It seems that most of the TV series that are released through NBC Home Entertainment are edited. These include Little House, Cosby Show, and Highway to Heaven from what I've seen and possibly others.
