Little House on the Prairie

Gold Country - S3-E21

Corrected entry: Mr Edwards is illiterate, so how did he read the article from the newspaper he gave to Charles - even down to knowing where, location-wise, the article is on the newspaper page? He even explained in detail what the article says to Charles. (00:07:00 - 00:08:00)

EyeCatcher

Correction: Back in S2, "His Father's Son," Isaiah couldn't read John's poignant letter to him. It's shown at the very end that Isaiah is learning to read on his own. When John finds Isaiah alone at the treehouse, the camera zooms in on the book lying on the windowsill - "McGuffey's Eclectic Primer" - a textbook to teach reading. In S2, E18, "The Long Road Home," Isaiah sees Charles writing a letter to Caroline and says he has "tried" to write but "kept busting all the pencils," which means he's already learned to read.

Bunny - S3-E4

Corrected entry: At the end of the show when Nellie is destroying her room, she throws a ceramic horse at a tapestry of her mother on the wall. The tapestry says "porcelain 1980". (00:47:52)

Correction: I think it's a stretch to say it has "1980" on it. It looks more like "1880" or even "1820." But it should be pointed out that the episode aired Jan 1977, so it's not like "1980" represents the year it was made.

Laura: I hate that Nellie Oleson.
Caroline: Laura! Don't say "hate" - don't even think "hate"! I'm sure Nellie has her good qualities somewhere.
Charles: Your ma's right, half-pint. Now on the way home, we'll try and think of some.
