"HERE COME THE BRIDES" RECAP!

Dean and Alison are just a day away from the Little House on the Prairie Cast Reunion at Columbia State Historic Park—but there’s still plenty of time to recap one of the funniest episodes in Little House history!This week, we dig into “Here Come the Brides” (Season 4), where we come to a shocking realization: almost every Little House wedding is a surprise wedding. Seriously—BOOM. No invitations. No planning. Just, “Surprise! You’re hitched!”This episode has it all: Nellie in full teenage heat (seriously, someone hand her a fan), Mrs. Oleson attempting homicide, and little Willy not giving even half a hoot. Pig farming somehow becomes sexy, Miss Beadle (the fabulous Charlotte Stewart) becomes a Mrs., and Nellie is crowned the Pig Queen of Minnesota…for approximately ten minutes.Alison shares some epic behind-the-scenes stories—how Jonathan Gilbert came up with that pratfall, what it was like working with “Luke,” and the sneaky way Charlotte helped cast her future husband in the show. She also reflects (with just a tiny bit of cringing) on just how, uh… aggressively enthusiastic Nellie was in this one. It’s pure comedy gold.And of course—join us on Patreon, where Alison spills even more tea about this episode. Trust us, it’s worth it.Links and Resources:Haven’t signed up for Patreon yet?
