S2 #55 - "LITTLE WOMEN" RECAP! (S2 Ep 8)

#54 S2 EP.8

"LITTLE WOMEN" RECAP!



*Warning**: If you, like Dean, have never read the beloved novel *Little Women or watched any of its movie adaptations, brace yourself—you may not fully grasp the emotional weight of today’s episode recap: "Little Women"! (Honestly, Dean Butler, how dare you!)



In this episode, we meet more characters that we end up falling in love with, only to never see them again (you know, the infamous Vortex of Special Guests from the multiverse?).



But let's get down to the real issues: Why are the wigs so distractingly bad in this episode? Is Jenny indeed Mrs. Beadle’s long-lost daughter? Does Nellie’s intense, pantomimed sewing session make you...uneasy? And seriously, why does Ma scrubbing the bare floor make you so tired just watching it?



Plus, Pamela and Alison share their uncomfortable “groomer vibes” from one of the main characters, and we take a detour to Frontier House on PBS to remind ourselves that a solid stockpile of chopped wood is essential for prairie life!



Alison also spills the tea on the real-life inspiration for her character, Nellie Oleson, and uncovers some surprising connections to this episode, along with juicy behind-the-scenes gossip about Katherine MacGregor and Jonathan Gilbert!



In a moment of sheer brilliance, we even compare the Little House characters to Muppets—and yes, we’re calling out Miss Piggy specifically!



Lastly, Alison cracks the mystery of why Baby Carrie takes that tumble down the hill in the opening credits. You won’t want to miss it!
