Little House on the Prairie meets Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman

---------------------*PLEASE READ*----------------------

- Fandom: DQMW/LHOTP
- Program: Sony Vegas Pro 8

- Description:
I've been working on this video for quite some time now; started in June 2009, but even before June, I collected, while watching Little House on the Prairie for the first time, material, scenes/audio from the series, that I thought would fit with this video, bringing the Ingalls to Colorado Springs. I think the result turned out rather well, but sorry for the poor quality in some parts.

- Story/Spoiler:
The family Ingalls, consisting of Charles, his wife Caroline and his three daughters Mary the oldest, Laura, and little Carrie, decide to travel to the town of Colorado Springs and perhaps, if the town is to their liking, settle down.
When the Ingalls reach the new town, they are warmly greeted by the local townspeople. Charles is slightly surprised, when Dr. Quinn introduces herself, since he has not really heard of a lady doctor before and definitely never met one, but he has nothing against it and just repeats her name out of astonishment.
While Laura Ingalls befriends Brian Cooper, Charles and Caroline receive a loan offer from the banker Preston Lodge, which they accept.
Having decided to stay in Colorado Springs, the Ingalls explore town and Mary and Laura attend school.
After a certain time in Colorado Springs, Charles and his family decides to move on, and they peacefully leave town.

- Audio dialog in the video:
Charles: Everybody all set back there?
Laura: Yeah!
Charles: Here we come!
Laura: Ready or not...
*Charles giggles*

Local man: Welcome to Colorado Springs!
Charles: Thank you!
Michaela: Morning....I'd like to welcome you to our town.
Charles: Name's Ingalls. This is my wife Caroline...
Caroline: How do you do.
Charles: And my daughters, Mary, Laura and Carrie.
Michaela: I'm Dr. Quinn.
Charles: Dr. Quinn....
Loren: Now if you should find need of any of life's little necessities, you just don't hesitate, come over and see me, at the general store.
Caroline: Oh we have no cash....
Preston: Leave that to me, I'll draw up a loan in no time.
Charles: Thank you!
Caroline: Oh wonderful!
***
Caroline: Boston...
Preston: That's right...
***
Brian: I'm Brian.
Laura: I'm Laura Ingalls.
Brian: You'll like it here...
***
Charles: Thank you very much, it's a real pleasure to be here.
***

Preston: Good afternoon.

***

Grace: Got everything you need?
Charles: It's fine, thank you.

***

Dorothy: Afternoon...
Charles: Never thought I'd see a day a woman would be running a newspaper..
Dorothy: oh...
Charles: Good for the town.

- Notes: I know the part with Preston being so quickly willing to give the Ingalls a loan and them being overly happy to accept, isn't really keeping them in character, but it was an idea that gave me an opportunity to create the other scene just before it (with the Loren/Caroline speech), and with the audio parts, it worked really well.
And at the end it's so funny, Preston is smiling, waving good bye to the family as they depart, but what about the loan? Well, we can always assume the Ingalls stayed for a longer time in Colorado Springs (a year maybe), so Charles was able to pay off the loan, and of course, Caroline earned some money, selling eggs to Loren, lol.
Oh and another funny thing, in my video, Laura talks to Brian, but in reality, it would be more fitting if she talked to Preston, since the two of them are the same age *giggle* and that makes me think of a ship between them.... I could use footage of Melissa Gilbert in more recent films, while still using footage of Caroline and Charles, for her parents...well, that could maybe be an idea for a future project, ... we'll see.

Amazing! I am a lifelong fan of lhotp and a new fan of dqmw and this has left me speechless! By far my favorite video on YouTube!

There was also another show similar to these two called Paradise.

Wow! Great video. Big fan of both shows. They were quite similiar too - both set in post-civil war 19th century america. Also DQMW explored the same themes as LHOTP such as: adoption, alcoholism, drug addiction (i.e. morphine), leukemia, blindness, racism, prejudice, rape etc.

@JKubel25 I did one called "Little House" - Lady Doctor. Michaela comes to Walnut Grove as Doc. Baker's assistant. It was really fun, and I had many ideas I wanted to explore, but life got in the way and I no longer have the time. Maybe some day.

[JKubel25]

Well done! Interesting how you 'blended' the two. I'm waiting for someone to take parts of old episodes and blend them into new stories. With this kind of technique, I know it can be done.

[ena1490]

That was pretty cool! I LOVE both shows and it's funny cause there are times when Sully reminds me of Charles cause they're both very rugged but sensitive to the needs of their families etc., you know? Great idea, great job =]
