And I think theres a lot of other stories to mine beyond that.
Did you watch the original?
Have you seen the episode The Wisdom of Solomon?
I dont think we got more woke than that, Gilbert told EW.
I mean, we covered everything thats going on in the world still.
There will be Osage characters, as the first season is based on the bookLittle House on the Prairie.
Other former cast members have commented on the reboot.
But Butler went on to say that the audience has changed.
What is the television audience and what do they want?
… Theres a very different expectation.
And Alison Arngrim, who played Nellie Oleson, tried to temper concerns about the Netflix adaptation.
So far, none of the originals have been asked back to participate in the new version.
