The original DVD sets sold in the U.S. and Canada were released in conjunction with NBC Enterprises (later NBC Universal in 2004) by Imavision Distribution, a company based in Quebec. A majority of the episodes in the original North American DVD versions had scenes cut from the episodes—these were derived from the syndicated television versions by Worldvision Enterprises, the series' former distributor. Other episodes (especially in Season Eight) were time compressed and are NTSC-converted video prints from UK PAL masters, while others were derived from 16MM syndication prints, also from Worldvision.

And both Caroline and Charles are propositioned by former married classmates. When she took on the role of Ma, or Caroline Ingalls, Karen Grassle was an undiscovered newcomer.

After Little House ended its run, Grassle said adios to Hollywood and moved to New Mexico where she opened Santa Fe’s Resource Theater Company. She did return to California eventually and landed a part in Kevin Costner’s Wyatt Earp.

In 1957, Landon released a single, “Gimme a Little Kiss,” during the height of his fame for his role in the film I Was a Teenage Werewolf. Jason Bateman joined the cast of Little House on the Prairie at age 12. He portrayed James Cooper Ingalls, the second adopted son of Caroline and Charles. Dean Butler portrayed the character Almanzo Wilder, who later married Laura. Almanzo, lovingly called "Manly" by Laura, also attracted the attention of Nellie Oleson and other young ladies in Walnut Grove.
Born Eugene Maurice Orowitz in Queens, New York, he and his family moved to Collingswood, New Jersey when he was four. There Eugene celebrated his bar mitzvah and attended high school, doing very well in track and field, especially javelin throwing. His athletic skills earned him a scholarship to the University of Southern California.
He began a healthy eating regimen and coffee enemas, but was devastated to learn that the cancer had tripled in size. Just three months after his diagnosis, Landon succumbed to the disease after a short battle at age 54. In April 1991, Landon was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson to talk about his battle and the disease. “Michael Landon was like a father figure to many of us, obviously, and a very, very important influence in my life,” Gilbert told PEOPLE in a recent interview.

As with all TV series, it eventually had to come to an end, the final episode of Bonanza airing on January 16, 1973. Beyond I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957), roles came in such films as Maracaibo (1958), High School Confidential (1958), God’s Little Acre (1958) and The Legend of Tom Dooley (1959). Feeling that his birth name wasn’t catchy enough for an aspiring actor, Eugene Orowitz chose his professional moniker by picking the name Michael Landon out of the Los Angeles telephone book.
The year Bonanza ended, Landon signed on to the Little House series. Not only did he play Pa, he wrote, directed and executive produced the show. After Little House, Landon went on to star as a probationary angel in yet another hit show, Highway to Heaven. He continued to act, write, produce and direct until he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 1991.
Bateman's career grew in the 1980s with sitcoms like Silver Spoons, It's Your Move, and The Hogan Family. In 2003, he landed the role of Michael Bluth on Arrested Development, earning two Emmy nominations. He has also ventured into drama, starring as Marty Byrde on the crime drama Ozark and directing nine episodes.
After their final episode in 1982, Rachel Lindsay appeared in Matt Houston, while Sidney starred in the dramedy Hambone and Hillie. They also collaborated on commercials for Doublemint gum, Mattel and Kentucky Fried Chicken before leaving acting to focus on school. She also made her feature film debut in the 1981 horror Happy Birthday to Me. She has since appeared in various movies and TV shows, including The Con Is On with Uma Thurman in 2018.
