‘Little House on the Prairie’s Melissa Gilbert Reacts To Megyn Kelly’s “Woke-ify” Gripe With Netflix Reboot: “Watch Any Episode”

With DEI, trans rights and immigration already taking a hit under President Donald Trump‘s second term, Megyn Kelly seems to be most concerned with the sanctity of Little House on the Prairie.

After the talking head threatened to “ruin” Netflix‘s upcoming reboot of the classic 1974-’83 NBC series if the streaming platform dares to “woke-ify” the update, original star Melissa Gilbert reminded Kelly the show was always woke. “Apparently Megyn tweeted (I’m not on that platform) asking that Netflix not ‘woke-ify’ their Little House remake,” wrote Gilbert in a statement on Instagram. “Ummm… watch the original again.

TV doesn’t get too much more ‘woke’ than we did. We tackled: racism, addiction, nativism, antisemitism, misogyny, rape, spousal abuse and ever other ‘woke’ topic you can think of.

Thank you very much.” In the caption, she told Kelly to “watch any episode on any streaming platform anywhere in the world.” Gilbert, who starred as Little House author Laura Ingalls Wilder, posted the statement after Kelly threatened Netflix on X, “if you wokeify Little House on the Prairie I will make it my singular mission to absolutely ruin your project.” A post shared by Melissa E.
