Write-In Campaign to Request Sequel
Little House on the Prairie badly needs a sequel movie! The Brady Bunch and The Waltons have done this repeatedly with great success, and the sequel to Leave It to Beaver ran almost as long as the original series. The last movie sequels to Little House on the Prairie aired decades ago and we are long overdue for another.
The sequel (TV movie or better, miniseries, preferably available on streaming as so many people are giving up regular TV) should open when Laura Ingalls Wilder falls on hard times during the Depression and writes Pioneer Girl, which she presents to her successful writer daughter Rose for her opinion. The story should follow their struggles and initial failure, finally ending in the success of Little House in the Big Woods. Plenty of biographical material exists on which to base this and clips from the original series could be effectively used.
The remainder should focus on the surviving cast of Little House on the Prairie, as many as will participate.
Who would you most like to see return and doing what? I, for one, want to see Albert survive his apparent death as portrayed in a movie sequel and return as the town doctor to save other desperately ill children.
How should cast members who have passed on be honored?
How would you arrange bringing the cast back together after the town was destroyed in the last show?
Since Melissa Gilbert will in a few short years be the same age Laura was when she wrote the books, this needs to happen as soon as possible.
