I love these stories. This show was the best. I went to the 50th anniversary event this weekend and it was incredible. Thank you to everyone in the little house on the Prarie cast.
Really wished I could of gone. This is the only show that would have motivated me to actually get on a plane (I never travel far), but found out about it too late to plan accordingly.
The falling down on the hill was just adorable! There was such a rapport with the twins and “Mr Edwards!”
To be honest it always bothered me her falling down. I had always wished they redid it without her falling. I wouldn't call it adorable, but that's jmo. We all feel different.
My 96 year mother always loves Carrie falling down. She now is suffering from dementia and when I put on little house. She always smiles and loves Carrie falling down in the opening scene. So glad it was kept in the scene.
Me and my identical twin sister watched with our family on Monday nights. We loved the Carrie charecter and are a year older. It feels like yesterday when we watched the pilot and excited to watch the series on Monday nights. We had to go to bed afterwards..😂
i always wish i had a twin. Thanks for sharing your story.
Carrie had 5 words the entire show. They made her seem mentally delayed.
Thank you! I say that every time I watch the show. Even when she was an older child she still behaved like she was four years old.
@@boredpeanutbutter75 I think the twins who played her simply did not take well to acting. I notice this a lot with very young child actors that age on set
@@stitches318 Yeah, I think they were just being themselves rather than the character they were playing because they still sound the same even as adults, though not mentally challenged.
Jack the dog had more lines, Laura and Mary's stand ins had more screen time.
My life is complete. At last, we can understand Baby Carrie when she talks.
😂😂😂
We can now understand the twins! When they played Carrie, no one could understand them!
We love you ladies, Sidney and Lindsay Greenbush!
I always thought that their characters were a waste of time. 5 lines of dialogue a season if they were lucky. Then comes Albert and they get even less. Then come James and Cassandra and steal what little there was left. Then comes season 9 and they are out of a job altogether.
It didn't take long for the producers to realize they were terrible actors and were eventually overshadowed by the adopted kids.
@@nance64 Yes, that's true. Although I don't think that Missy Francis was all that great. She had a habit of always having a constipated look on her face IMO.
@@nance64 Yeah I knew this even as a kid watching the show (a kid who also watched daytime soaps and frequently saw horrible child actors replaced with slightly better preteen actors). It would have made more sense to just recast Carrie rather than bring in all these adopted kids. Then again, she did not have a huge parts in the books later, though she became more of Laura's companion after Mary went blind. Carrie was always described as weak and sickly. Her biggest scene in the books was when Laura did her punishment for her after she got in trouble with Ms. Wilder
I always thought Carrie was a waste of time because she was just so DUH. No offense Rachel and Sydney but they would have to admit Carrie was a DUH character. Even when she got older she didn't seem like the brightest bulb in the drawer lol. They should have given her more lines. Might have helped lol.
@@IcedTeaCanonthedesk Their only lines I can remember are: " Are there really werewolves, Ms. Wilder?" and " I know we'll miss all of our friends!" And that's for the whole series.
That poor little butterfly! Horrifying.
That episode where she was nailed to the roof!! Probably the funniest thing I ever saw..typical Mr. French🤣
I thought their names were Lyndsay & Sidney Greenbush.
That’s how she was billed. Her name is Rachel Lyndsay.
I wish Carrie had more storylines as she got older. She was part of the main cast and then just pushed aside.
it was likely because the twins who played Carrie were not the best actresses. That's why they brought in new young actresses to satisfy the 'cute need'
@@stitches318 They probably could have gotten better if given the chance. Even the adopted kids had their own story lines.
🤨 Right? I felt bad she got shoved aside, especially when James and Cassandra were added. I wasn't a big fan that they made her, and Cassandra, wear those braided pigtails when both girls wore their hair loose before.
@@LilyZerep Yeah, you couldn't really tell them apart.
@stitches318 I love the series but Carry was indeed not acted very well. Even more apparent looking back.
Why are their names Rachel and Sydney? I always thought they were Lindsay and Sydney.
Their full names are actually Rachel Lindsay Rene Bush and Sidney Robyn Danae Bush. "Lindsay and Sidney Greenbush" were apparently stage names that their mother used for them in order to protect their privacy. I had always thought that Rachel and Robyn were the names that they went by in real life (I read this a long time ago) but in this interview it seems like they both just go by their actual first names.
Which was more traumatic?
Learning that Carie was two people or discovering Susan and Sharon were one person?
Those of us born in the 60s have been through a lot.
Haha!
Now that's funny!
"Alison jokes that I'm still stuck in the well somewhere because Sidney came out, and I fell in, and so she jokes around that I'm still there."
😂 that's hilarious
just watched that episode mr Edward’s one of my favourites this show stands the test of time
Our country needs this show now more than ever. Hands down the most wholesome television show for families ❤
My children are 5 and 8 and we watch Little House on the Prairie every Friday night for family movie night, it’s entertaining for all of us, and always leads into a discussion of good morals and leaves us feeling good inside.
Lovely to hear that! ❤
I agree! It explores so many difficult issues, and show so many ways of coping and finding solutions… And lots of fun too… An emotional roller coaster for sure, but with a great moral..."never give up!" on anything… Yourself, your friends and family, difficult people, most importantly, your values…
People of today most likely wouldn't watch it thinking it's too old and before their time. Even my mother in law who's in her 70s says it's too cheesy for her taste.
Ha! This is awesome! Love hearing these inside stories.
Such sweet stories to share! Love this interview. ♥️
I just want to know if Carrie ever got her excrement issue fixed!😂 Carrie and Willy were the only characters to spend a substantial amout of time in the out houses throughout the whole series!!!😂😂😂
I love Little House on the Prairie, the Greenbush twins were horrible actresses.
Wow! It's been 50 years since the show started, and 40 since it ended.
Time flies..........
The story of the fall is told differently in one of the books by one of the other actors. I've read a couple, so can't remember who, but basically they said something about the hill scenery was faked and twine or wire was holding it in place, and she tripped on the twine. Or maybe both aspects are true.
I love carrie ❤ saludos desde Mexico
We loved Carrie, especially since I have twin sisters, and one of their names is Carrie(… The other is Karen) loved this little glimpse of your time on the show
Enjoyed this! Thank you, so much, for sharing!
So right that you won't find shows such as theirs LHOTP nowadays. Nostalgic and a lot of us wishing those days be back.
I ♥Sidney. I have truly "fallen" for you!
Amazing two twin actresses !!! Just like in so many other hit shows after you two have done it before them
Interesting story about the shoes,because I remember many years ago that Melissa Gilbert or Melissa Sue Anderson said that the flowers weren’t real and were wired onto the hill and the girls had to be careful not to rip them up as they barreled down the hill.
Yes I heard that same story. Although I don't recall who said it either. But without a doubt, that's what was said which is different from what we just heard here. Interesting.
@@-greentoad It was Melissa Sue Anderson who said it.
"Rachel"? Wasnt one if the twins Lindsay?
🐦🌞🙏🏾🎉♥️
🌞🌞🌞🌞🙏🏾🎉
I sobbed when Carrie fell down that well.
ALLISA!!!!!! ALLISA!!! ALLISA!!! ALLISA!!! ALLISA!!!
😊😃🙏🏾😊😃❤️🐦
❤️❤️❤️
Lindsay and Sidneys Dad is apparently, Billy Greenbush > who played
‘ Cowboy ‘ On M.A.S.H ( First Season, I think ) .
her imaginary friend episode was the most annoying one lol
It sure was. It was terrible.
Little girl lost truly one of my favorite episodes
you could tell whos who in god sis one twin is taller
very interesting, i have been a fan of little house since it was on in the 70s and i have every episode on dvd,....i might just go and watch them all now over the Easter long week end....
I didn't know they used twin sisters to play Carrie until years later after watching the show.
Thank you for sharing these stories I love it. I love the show and watched so many time and I am watching it now again. These are the legendary show. I love it so much.
I thought i saw an interview with one of the cast members, years ago (Melissa Gilbert?), that the flowers in the hill/field were fake, and connected with wires, so that's why Rachel/Lindsey (?) tripped.
I actually heard that exact same story. I'm guessing I heard it in an interview as well. Not sure. But interesting that the story was different from what was said here.
Idk about the flowers but according to Alison Arngrim in her book, the reason Carrie fell down was because someone put her shoes on the wrong feet and the little one just learned to walk so it's no wonder she fell down.
Dommage, qu’il n’y ait pas de traduction...
Speaking as a huge fan, the twins were often dopey to me, as characters.
Growing up watching this show weekly, Carrie always seemed to be perpetually falling down a well….
For years I had no idea they used twins.
Both are lovely ladies. But, they don't look like twins now. How is that possible with identical twins?
Bought the whole series. Started the pilot this week and am nearly at the end of season one. We used to have to wait a week for the next show. 😂
I grew up watching this show, @ the age of 4yrs old
💕
The original “Olson Twins”
1:50 😂 Alison's joke! 😂
They actually look like Ma.
🌹🌹🌹🌹
So nice to hear the stories of how you two worked on the show. ♥️🌷♥️🌷. This show was from my childhood too. Definitely a show that can’t be replicated
A scout came to a dance performance of mine when I was about 4-5yrs old and asked my parents to bring me to audition for the role of Carrie , my mom wouldn't do it. She said I was too bratty to audition. I held a grudge because that could have opened a door for me into acting :( oh well.
It's interesting that Lindsay is Rachel's middle name, and Sidney's is Robyn. Maybe the parents did it that way to keep from calling them the wrong one.
I like your comment. Their names go really nice together..I liked little house..but, I wasn't even born(yet) when it was on.. :)😊
I thought I had read that Rachel and Robyn were the names that they went by in real life, and Lindsay and Sidney were used as their stage names in order to protect their privacy. But in this interview it seems that they both just go by their actual first names. Sidney refers to Lindsay as Rachel, but then Lindsay/Rachel refers to her sister as Sidney, not Robyn.
@@hannahroberts673 I thought their names were Sidney Robyn & Lindsay Rachel..& I thought they went nicely together. I like the name Robyn, you don't hear it much. Sorry for the late reply, I just noticed this now.. :) 👋 Have a good day.
The producers/directors/editors even made sure to time that moment in the theme song with Carrie's fall! It's clever. Well done by the team!
I like that ep😊🐈
Wow thank you for sharing the behind the scenes. so cool!
Are favorite moment was every time you or your sister would fall .. we would have a game of shots every time you fell . Thats all we remember you 2 for.
Carrie was my favorite!!!!
the little girl lost Carrie not favourite for her
she scared you love
The best TV show ever made, the talent from all Actors was impressive!! ❤. Netflix should broadcast the show!
It's on prime video and I am just watching the series for the first time! Loving it!
The Godsisters episode is considered not only the worst LHOTP episode ever, but one of the worst episodes of television in television history, so it's great that they can look at it with so much fondness, because most of us fans don't, haha.
Those twins were terrible actresses.
😂😂....they still speak in a very awkward tone.....but hey at the end of the day its carrie 😁
😂
What great memories!
❤❤
God, you were my favourite, so sweet and cute you were
Hey it's like the 2 twin boys in The Other, 1972 LOL
That film haunted me for years! 😵
Carrie was always my favorite Little House character because she was close to my actual age at the time. My favorite episode was the God sister one with both twins....that was the episode where Carrie was the sole focus of the whole episode. Thanks for sharing Rachel and Sidney!
Was it Miss Beadle’s fault that Carrie fell down the well?
No it was not Miss Beadle's fault. While she did give the assignment to collect bugs, it was just an assignment that any teacher could give. Mary had to start over collecting bugs because Carrie let hers loose. Mary told Carrie to stay put. But she didn't and chased a butterfly and fell in the well. A tired and distraught Caroline blamed Miss Beadle but immediately felt bad about it.
They though it was a well but it was a mine. Loudy figured it out and saved the day.🤠

LOL, but like the Olson twins, and Chris and Tracy on The Partridge Family, how much were they paid for doing and saying absolutely nothing?
It's obvious the second twin has a speech impediment that she never quite got over. But at least, unlike in the show, u can now fully understand her and don't cringe when she's on set; "Ahhhh-llliiii-sssaaa" anyone? Even if the twins could act, the speech problem would have made things very challenging to give the character actual storylines. Nothing against them, they seem like wonderful people, but neither could act; that's not an opinion, they just could not act at all, fact. They had to realize at some point later on, say around 78 or 79 if not sooner that was the case when they kept brining in all these add-a-kids and the Carrie character barely existed. Missy Francis was their age and her character had much dialogue and storylines of her own; the Cassandra character interacted with the adults and conversed with them in complete sentences, never having to delivery baby-talk jibberish that had to be dubbed in later on. Mary and Laura grew up over night yet Carrie remained stuck in time. They had to realize TPTB did not think them telented enough to develop, and I would think it would have ben hurtful to keep them on in such a limited capacity.
