List of Little House on the Prairie episodes

The following is a list of episodes for the television show Little House on the Prairie, an American Western drama about a family living on a farm in Walnut Grove, Minnesota from the 1870s to the 1890s. The show is a full-colour version of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s series of Little House books.

The regular series was preceded by the two-hour pilot movie, which first aired on March 30, 1974. The series began on the NBC network on September 11, 1974, and ended on May 10, 1982. Then it was re-tooled as a spin-off sequel series known as Little House: A New Beginning from September 27, 1982 to March 21, 1983–this is generally considered “Season Nine” for purposes of television syndication.

The majority of the episodes run approximately 50 minutes (not counting commercials, they have since been edited for syndication to accommodate more commercial time). Expanded episodes (90 minutes to 2 hours) have been indicated as such; many of these may not currently be shown in some syndication markets due to their length.

Season 8 (1981–1982)
Note this is Michael Landon, Karen Grassle, Matthew Labyorteaux, and Lindsey and Sidney Greenbush's final season of the show and Melissa Sue Anderson's final appearance in the episode "A Christmas They Never Forgot."

Post-series movie specials (1983–1984)
Little House: A New Beginning was followed by three TV movies released between 1983 and 1984.
