  • Summary

  • On September 18, 1974 a cultural phenomenon came forth unto the world: The Birth of the Prairie Bitch. That's right, Alison Arngrim premiered as Nellie Oleson on Little House on the Prairie, and our worlds have never been the same. We discuss the episode "Country Girls" and the role Alison was born to play. Did you know that Alison first auditioned for the role of Laura?! Hear about her infamous audition story, her deep understanding of the character, and how she was always drawn to villain characters. Find out how being bullied in real life lent itself to her channeling the nastiness of Nellie Oleson, and how her "prairie drag" helped to transform her into the role.The immediate connection felt between Alison and Melissa Gilbert allowed them to achieve one of the all-time greatest TV rivalries and how the enjoyment of the kill is comparable to Alison's hero, Hannibal Lecter! Alison's experience of being the most hated person to one of the most beloved people is nothing short of amazing, as is Alison's embracing of the character and her place in TV history--and all of our hearts--as our favorite Prairie Bitch. As Alison so perfectly says it: "BEAUTY IS FLEETING--VILLAINY IS FOREVER" Then join us on Patreon for another fun segment! This week...Dean gets a surprise from Alison that may or may not involve an iconic song, a jacket and tie, and Gary Coleman just may be a part of the conversation. Intrigued? Join us! Link below!
