Loved her role as Nellie... the show wouldn't have been as interesting without Nellie! I especially loved it when she fell in love with Percival. Those were my favorite episodes... her and Percival. :)

[@brucestuller79]

Alison is terrific!!!! She is hillarious, tells it like it is. That people still hate Nellie just proves what a wonderful actress Alison is. I hope to see hear stand-up comedy show one day

[@mumskycute8264]

Love you Alison, I loved watching you as Nellie, I still watch The Little House on the Prairie everyday.

[@newyork8290]

Without Harriet and Nellie Little House On The Prairie wouldn't of had near the success it came to have. If you hated this two characters with a passion every time they did something evil in the show , It means they played their roles so good down to every detail. Playing the nice person/ character is so damn easy but acting as a villain takes talent that you literally have to think/ feel in order to convince the audience. Harriet/ Nellie were underrated and DESERVE MUCH MORE credit for giving the program ALWAYS a reason for viewers to wanna tune in each and every time.

[@holyexperience1976]

I would say playing villian is challenging for those with decent enough personality, and playing nice character is hard when the actor in real life does not have a nice personality or likes being a bad donkey.

[@jawo8754]

I wouldn't say that they were "villans" so much as they were entitled people. Nellie did make a change in the show once she met and married Percival.

[@amyferguson8081]

This was (and still is) absolutely one of my favorite shows ever! Thank you so much for this. It changed my view on Nellie so much! She's so funny, now her mother might be a different story....... 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂😂

[@CeltycSparrow]

Alison was PERFECTLY cast for the part of Nellie Oleson. I can't imagine anyone else portraying this character as flawlessly as she did. Same with Katherine MacGregor as Mrs. Oleson. EASILY two of the best characters on the show. And the fact that she and Melissa Gilbert were close friends in real life, and they could take their jealous rivalry farther than someone who wasn't comfortable going there, made it all the more hilarious. ESPECIALLY when they were fighting over poor Almanzo. lol He was a VERY handsome man in real life, so I understand why they both wanted him.

[@thepinkwitchslair5364]

Read her book. It's so hilarious and inspiring as well.

[@chnalvr]

She is GREAT! I saw Alison performing at a gay pride festival years ago and she was slaying the crowd! A real hero!

[@DiffuserDudeAromatherapy]

Alison is so funny! Why hasn’t anyone cast her in sitcoms? Fun personality! Great interview! Love stuff like this.

[@SR-uf8pt]

Alison is so great! I love her sense of humor. She says in her book that she learned to be funny as a defense mechanism. She was physically and sexually abused as a child by her psycho older brother, while their clueless parents looked the other way, and she was physically attacked in public at least once by fans of LHOTP.

[@MrScottx]

Wasn't her brother a regular on Land of the Giants tv series?

Wish they would have keep Nellie and Percival longer in the show. Just hated that they moved to New York. Sad to see them go. Love you Alison Arngrim.

The real Nellie Owens (married name Kirry) is actually buried about fifty miles east of Tillamook, in the Forest View Cemetery in Forest Grove, Oregon. I actually live about fourteen miles east of the cemetery but haven't had a chance to go there yet.

For years I didn't understand what went on behind the scenes on little house. I like what she did in support of the Aids community. She used the reputation she built up to force the repeal a bad law that injured children in California. I really like Nellie Olson and Alison Arngrim. Yes I listened to Alison Arngrim's reading of her book released in Audible.

[@dwjoseph59]

She can still do that adorable "nellie oleson plotting look" with those lovely big eyes & that great smile, the only thing missing is the longer hair & sausage curls. Great interview & yes, she is funny. Surprised that the oleson family didn't get a spinoff, they could've made it work. And it's a great thing that her & melissa are still friends. Laura started out as my favorite on the show, but nellie took over.

[@randymoyan4754]

She's witty, intelligent and very attractive and beautiful!

[@PopGoesTheCultureTV]

I agree completely!

[@soul71000]

"very attractive and beautiful" Not to me.

[@SR-uf8pt]

"The Return of Nellie" is a great episode. It not only gave Nellie the opportunity to face off against her "replacement," Nancy, who even had the same hairdo as Nellie when she was younger, but it showed how much the other characters loved her. Sure, they wanted to smack her many times (and so did the audience), but they did love her, and missed her when she went away. Alison Arngrim, aka Nellie's portrayer, had no use for people who pitted Nellie and Nancy against each other, like when they wrote to her, "You're the only true Nellie!" Nancy wasn't Nellie. Yes, there was a general physical resemblance, but Nancy was actually different from Nellie -- she was deeply insecure and always thought people hated her, whereas Nellie thought everyone loved her.

[@PopGoesTheCultureTV]

Hey, Shelley Ruble. I couldn't agree more. Thanks for watching! Best, David

[@gadolelohai115]

Lol Nancy always said, "you hate me" real dramatically 😂 Omgosh I love Little House. I couldn't wait to get off the school bus at 4 pm to watch it. Here I am now a grandma and I finally purchased the entire movie collection set! My kids laughed at me for spending $70 at Wal-Mart on Little House, but it just brings back great memories lol All of the Actors did a fantastic job! Nellie was such a brat Lol😂 she made the show a hit!

[@KayBeeGee]

I'm going to purchase the entire set as soon as I have the chance. I never liked Nancy. Nellie had good moments before she changed for Percival. She was smiling and cheering and clapping for her father Nels, when Nels accepted Annabelle as his overweight sister in public. Nellie was also more concerned and innocent than Nancy, who was just evil on purpose.

[@m.e.d.7997]

Always thought Nellie was so beautiful.

I had a hate/love thing for Nelly Olson's as a kid.....I just love her now!!!!

[@dj9wk]

I am reading her delightful book. I can't put it down. I can't wait to read some more tonight. I read that some kids kicked her and knocked her down because she was dressed as Nellie for a community thing she and Kathryn McGregor went too. If kids believe she was really mean, she did a good job.

[@laminage]

What I admire about her is how she's fought for the rights of Child Stars which I feel is needed now more than ever. According to the Jackie Coogan Law named after the Former Child Star 80% of their Earnings go into Trust but that Law is never if ever enforced. She also talked on Oprah (Where Are They Now?), about Sexual Abuse with Child Stars. She was abused herself but she didn't say anything. Alot of those 1970's Girls went through alot especially anorexia. Jill Whelan (Love Boat), Mary McDonough (Erin The Waltons) and even Susan Dey (Laurie The Partridge Family).
