Nellie Oleson. Discuss.

[NewWaveChick1981]

:P Lame-o copycat...

I always hated Nellie Oleson. She made Laura Ingalls' life pure hell. :rofl:

[masshole]

1. Since you mentioned LHOTP...

What about Merlin Olsen?


Discuss.

[NewWaveChick1981]

4. ...

:rofl: Definitely! Gotta have Merlin...

[bridgit]

2. hm...

[NewWaveChick1981]

3. ...

:rofl: :applause: The perfect sneer.... :P

[SPKrazy]

5. I Hated Her Too

my name (last) was close enough to this name that I got called Nellie olsen

pissed me off

:mad:

[NewWaveChick1981]

7. No wonder you hated her...

:rofl: :hi:

[SPKrazy]

11. Yup!

I thought she was the b-___ that ruined my 3rd grade life. I mean how do you impress the girls when there are people calling you Nellie Olsen! (We read the whole series in 3rd grade, really a good idea of books to read when you live on the prairie as I did in the 3rd grade in Oklahoma!)

:* :evilgrin:

[Broken_Hero]

6. I always thought

Katherine MacGregor was the strongest actor on the show, at least in the top three talents. She was such a good....PITA. Reminds me of 99/9% of the pita that I know.

[NewWaveChick1981]

8. Have to agree...

:hi:

[Arugula Latte]

9. Evil Incarnate.

And don't get me started on that Bee-yatch Mrs. Oleson! Not to mention her p-whipped husband ...

:D

[jakefrep]

10. Amen to that....

...Mr. Olson had to be the most 'whipped character in TV history.

[NewWaveChick1981]

18. ...

:rofl: Yep, that about sums the Olesons up.... :rofl:

[Pacifist Patriot]

12. That show has been horribly maligned.

Top-rate writing, acting and directing!

[ikojo]

15. Put the marijuana away and come

back after the high has worn off...

:sarcasm:

[Pacifist Patriot]

16. No, no, Albert is my hero! *sniff* Say it isn't so!

[NewWaveChick1981]

19. Yabut..... Michael Landon????

:P The Freeper Hero? :hi:

[Pacifist Patriot]

23. A foible here, a sin there...shall we not judge lest we be judged?

Okay, you have a point.

[NewWaveChick1981]

24. ...

:rofl: Don't forget.... Highway to Hell...er...Heaven was his baby too... :hi:

[Crazy Dave]

13. A Cindy Brady wannabee

;-)

[NewWaveChick1981]

20. Yep. Nellie wasn't as cute and she didn't have the patented Cindy

Brady lisp. :P :rofl: ;)

[Crazy Dave]

26. As far as the actress, Alison Arngrim goes...

I feel bad for her and proud of her at the same time. She was sexually abused as a child while she was on the series but later in life she was able to heal and find herself again. As with most abused children she kept it to herself for a long time before confronting it. Now she's a strong advocate for abused children and a very strong supporter for the AIDS cause.

[AngryAmish]

29. I saw her on one of those "where are they now" type shows

She said growing up most boys did not want to date her because she was Nellie Olsen....but some boys really wanted to date her because she was Nellie Olsen, which was far more terrifying.

[ThatsMyBarack]

14. Nellie Oleson was just a spoiled brat.

Nancy Oleson was EVIL! :evilfrown:

[NewWaveChick1981]

21. ...

:rofl: :hi:

[redwitch]

17. She was witchy. But her mom was worse.

A good show, I always enjoyed the early shows when the girls were little. Perfectly cast I think.

[NewWaveChick1981]

22. Gotta agree....

:hi:

[peekaloo]

25. I hated that she stole that kids' medal and pushed him in the lake and

pounded his hands with her shoes, then set the groundskeeper on fire when he figured it out and her piano playing sucked hard......wait I'm thinking of The Bad Seed. Nevermind.

[Beer Snob-50]

27. Didn't she do stand up after her stint as Nellie?

Just curious.

[woofless]

28. I always liked "My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys"

[Scarlett17]

30. Wow. Major flashback.

In 6th grade we had to do a project that involved recording ourselves on a cassette tape. Apparently, on tape in 6th grade, I sounded exactly like Nelly Olsen. Enough that I had to endure the nickname until the 8th grade. Wow. That must me why I still can't watch the Family Channel reruns. I completely forgot (blocked out) that.
