@janetd4862last year I read her book. It made me happy to see that she and Melissa were actually great friends. She was treated badly at public events because people can’t seem to separate onscreen fiction from real life. 436

@marthavillanueva550511 months ago The fact that ppl hated her shows what a great actress she was. 519

@liwi513last year My favorite Nellie Oleson line was, "Country Girls..." And then Mary saying, "I couldn't be as mean as that Nellie Oleson, wherein Laura said, "I could, but Ma won't let me!" 231

@willE8410 months ago My favorite Nellie/Laura moment, was when Nellie returned for a visit...her and Laura actually being happy to see each, hugging and squealing. Loved that. 35
@

@rachel-in-the-208last year This video was really WELL DONE!
My favorite Nellie moment was when she mocked her future husband and he poured a bowl of eggs on her head … only for to decide she was in love 😆 252

@MistyBerrier11 months ago Allison is a member of one of the groups I’m a member of on Facebook, and I actually chatted with her when she made a comment on one of my posts. She is a very sweet, down to earth, precious person and I love her. She chatted with me like we were best friends and she is DEFINITELY not like Nasty Nellie! ... 43

@tivbusride1411 months ago What a great and convincing actress !!! She played the roll brilliantly !! When I watch little house ( And I do all the time ) I say to myself… Wow !! This kid did a great job playing this character !! Her facial expressions, the way she said her lines , everything !!! Fantastic job Allison !! ... 45
@

@ville666sora11 months ago It's infuriating when people are rude or aggressive towards an actor/actress because they can't separate the character from the real person. Although it shows how amazing of an actress she is if she had people hating her that much lol. ... 104

@trinaqlast year I adored Nellie, she was definitely a "Love to Hate" sort of girl. 88

@nja322410 months ago Alison brought Nellie to life as well as any actor did with their character. One of the best character development examples ever, over many decades of TV shows. Well done Alison. 28

@

@sandykenin278last year Allison’s book is really great and shares so much of the stories from the set. And she is really funny! 35
@

@jenz45248 months ago Out of all the characters on the show, I love Nellie (Allison Arngrim), Nels (Richard Bull), and Harriet (Katherine MacGregor) the best. All were awesome in their characters. 6

@jons.6216last year A particular thank you for pronouncing Karen Grassle's name correctly! It's tempting to say it like "hassle", but years ago in interviews it was revealed to be "grass-lee"! 31

@adellajones988711 months ago My favorite episode is where Nellie and Percival met. I wish that they would have made a whole episode or even more about these two. 29

@TheJester196011 months ago Allison was also in a movie "Make the Yuletide Gay",where she played the Annoying Neighbor . She did great as usual, and as she stormed angrily away from the house , the Starring Mother yells "OH , Don't be such a NELLIE!" it is one of my favorite comical bits of the movie. ... 11

@BrockLee3last year I had a HUGE crush on Nellie when I was a kid. And, she became an even more beautiful woman. Even, now she is stunning. 11
@

@juliehattis11 months ago I loved Laura and Nelly's on screen chemistry. ❤😊 9
@

@TaDarling111 months ago I remember hearing that Alison and Melissa were great friends. I love that. I also loved the fact that many of the children on the show were related to each other. Nellie's brother Willie was Melissa's brother in real life. Real life brothers Matthew and Patrick Laborteaux played the roles of Albert Ingels and Andrew Garvey and Carrie Ingels was played by twin sisters. ... 8
@

@withurshield93111 months ago In the end Nellie character grew so much. We actually started to fall for her. I would have loved to seen her have more screen time, just to see how mature and opposite of her mother she became.
It would have been funny to see her and Laura take on social
Challenges together as a team. ... 38

@reginabeasley872last year I read allisons book in 2 days when i learned she was abused i understood why she played nellie so well that was her hurt coming out in the character theres so mant nellie moments that were so good its hard to pick a favorite ... 21
@

@rancidpitts8243last year While Little House ran, watching with my children, I thought to myself, either the girl who played Nellie, was just as mean and spiteful in real life. Or she was a Damn good actor who everyone like off screen. 45

@

@elijahjames883711 months ago Alison is a hoot. I've listened to a couple of interviews with her and she is a firecracker, funny, and very straightforward. She has come out in support of Cory Feldman and concures about the ugly side of Hollywood. 13

@janmarchand7294last year She really was the perfect actor to play Nellie, great actress! 24
@

@bridgettsilva916911 months ago I grew up watching Little House with my Great Aunts and GGrandma. Binge watched it during the pandemic and it still great. So many good Nellie moments but I always think of my great Aunt Rosie loving the time Laura pushed Nellie down the hill in the wheelchair and Nellie fell in the pond. That always made her laugh 😂 I appreciate Nellie’s hero journey story where she redeems herself when Percival pours the bowl of eggs on her head. That’s seemed to be the moment she softens. ... 6

@chriscoleman6956last year She played Nellie great on the show it was fun to watch her I am glad that she and Melissa Gilbert is great friends now and like for her is good. 5
@

@debbiejohnson786211 months ago Her book was an excellent read! Lots of juicy tidbits like the wig she wore through almost her whole run on Little House was the wig that Betty Davis wore in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane. Also Melissa Sue Anderson who played Mary wasn't friends with nor did she want to be friends with anyone because her mother told her she wasn't allowed to be friends with anyone because she was better than certain classes of people. A few shows Allyson was on like Love Boat and Fantasy Island were strange to see her in because you're expecting her mouth to open and out come a little Nellie Olsen!! My favorite thing she does is definitely the stand up comedy!! ❤ ... 31

@seanchristophersynthesizer699910 months ago As a young kid in the 70's, Little House was a show we looked forward to watching every week. One of the most vivid dreams I recall as a kid was actually me marrying Nellie Olsen.....the nicer Nellie in her later years. :) ... 2

@timothywalker456311 months ago You have to remind yourself this is an actor and she is good at it. Wheelchair down the hill was great 👍. Landing on her feet after leaving the show was good, however standing up for those that were cast out amazing. She really did run the gambit of life and still rolling today😊 ... 2
@

@user-wh5ir4fo4r10 months ago She's wonderful. I love to see that she and Laura played jokes on each other, as true friends sometimes do. She's a great actress because she made me as angry as I ever was against my childhool frienemy. 1

@toniquinn9270last year Hello Nick! I love your channel. I would have to say first of all, that I never read Allyson‘s memoir. My favorite person on Little House on the Prairie was Mary. I do like the way, Nelly and Laura thought on the show, though, and I thought it was quite amusing at times. ... 2

@markastoforoff783811 months ago I've never understood why some people will associate so strongly to a character on a tv show or movie and think they are like that in real life.

Alison stayed with him til he passed in 86. ...
