With Ransom Canyon having returned for a second season and Little House on the Prairie still dominating the viewership charts, fans of the Yellowstonefranchise have plenty to choose from on Netflix. The streamer has been trying hard to woo fans of Taylor Sheridan‘s work away from Paramount+, after having infamously passed on Yellowstone back in the day. The franchise has emerged as a culture-defining hit at Paramount+, spawning several sequels and drawing huge audiences to this day. Sheridan’s two Yellowstone prequels,1883 and 1923, also received excellent reviews. However, Netflix’s Little House on the Prairie offers another viewing alternative.
The show is based on the popular children’s books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, which were previously adapted into a long-running NBC series in the 1970s, and then into an ABC limited series in 2005. The new version is spearheaded by Rebecca Sonnenshine, with Luke Bracey, Crosby Fitzgerald, Alice Halsey, and Skywalker Hughes in supporting roles. Little House on the Prairie has received excellent reviews, with Collider’s Maggie Lovitt calling it a “must-watch masterpiece.” The eight-episode series holds a “Certified Fresh” 79% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “Little House on the Prairie dusts off the ’70s and enters a new era of conscious creation and adaptation, striking the right balance between nostalgia and inspiration to craft a new and enlivened path for itself.”

Sheridan Has Spoken You Belong In…
The show that claimed the most of your answers is the world you were built for. If two tied, both are shown — you’re complicated enough to straddle two Sheridan universes.

You are a Dutton — or you might as well be. You understand that some things are worth protecting at any cost, and that the modern world’s indifference to history, to land, to legacy, is not something you’re willing to accept quietly. You lead from the front, you carry your family’s weight without complaint, and when someone threatens what’s yours, you don’t escalate — you finish it. You’re not cruel. But you are absolute. In Yellowstone’s world, that combination of ferocity and loyalty doesn’t make you a villain. It makes you the only thing standing between everything that matters and everyone who wants to take it.
You thrive in the chaos of high-stakes negotiation, where the money is enormous, the margins are thin, and the wrong word in the wrong room can cost everyone everything. You’re a fixer — the person called when a situation is already on fire and needs someone with the nerve to walk into it. West Texas oil country rewards exactly what you are: sharp, adaptable, unsentimental, and absolutely clear-eyed about what people want and what they’ll do to get it. You’re not naive enough to think this world is fair. You’re smart enough to be the one deciding who it’s fair to.

You are a Dwight Manfredi — someone who has served their time, paid their dues, and arrived somewhere unexpected with nothing but their reputation and their wits. You adapt without losing yourself. You build loyalty through respect rather than fear, though you’re not above reminding people that the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Tulsa King is for people who are still standing when everyone assumed they’d be finished — who find, in an unfamiliar place, that they’re more capable than the world gave them credit for. You don’t need a throne. You build one, wherever you happen to land.
You carry the weight of a system that is broken by design, and you do it anyway — because someone has to, and because you’re the only one positioned to do it without the whole thing collapsing. Mike McLusky’s world is for people who are comfortable operating where there are no good options, only less catastrophic ones. You speak every language: law enforcement, criminal, political, human. That fluency makes you invaluable and it makes you a target. You’ve made your peace with both. Mayor of Kingstown belongs to people who understand that keeping the peace is not the same as being at peace — and who do the job regardless.
