Dean Butler almost killed himself

Some of the cast came into the show in later seasons, one of whom was Dean Butler, who starred as Laura Ingalls’ husband, Almanzo Wilder.

Just days following his college graduation, Dean made his way to the film set that was Little House. It would be a day to remember — for many reasons.

In Butler’s first scene, he was supposed to drive a horse wagon 200-yards down a hill. He had never done it before, and when Michael screamed “action”, things didn’t really work out. The breeze picked up his hat, with Butler instinctually dropping the reins to reach for it. At the same time, the horses, no longer under control, flew off the road and charged towards an oak tree.

People in the production were screaming, but luckily, a crew member managed to reach the horses before they hit the tree.

Dean’s first day on Little House could’ve gone better, with Michael Landon deciding to do the scene instead.

“Michael came up to me, chewing on a cigarette, and said ’well, I think I have to double, you know’,” Butler recalled Landon saying. “‘I can double you but not replace the horses on the show’. That was my first taste of being with Michael, but it was great fun.”

Did Albert die?

Albert Quinn Ingalls, played by a young Matthew Labyorteaux, would become a keystone of the series in 1978. The little boy is an orphan who is adopted in by the Ingalls family – but his exit from the series eluded many TV viewers.

In the 1983 made-for-TV movie ”Little House: Look Back to Yesterday”, Albert is diagnosed with leukemia. But did he die or not? That remains unclear to this date.

“He never officially died in the episode and I think maybe it’s kind of left up in the air to debate… but it was sort of an unspoken thing that we knew he was going to die,” the former child star said in an interview some years ago.

A timeless mistake
