    • Trivia
      Last appearance of Charles Ingalls (Michael Landon). He had already stopped showing up on a regular basis since the season 8 finale.
    • Goofs
      Laura has a voiceover at the end of the Season 9 episode entitled "Home Again" in which she says that Albert comes back to Walnut Grove as a doctor later on. However, this is a highly debated issue because in the movie "Look Back to Yesterday", Albert contracts a rare blood disease and it is inferred that he died, although that is also debated. So he could not come back and be a doctor if he died at the end of LBtY. Also, in the movie "The Last Farewell", the residents of Walnut Grove blew up the town. Therefore, unless they rebuilt the town, Albert couldn't come back to Walnut Grove to be a doctor, because nothing was there mostly except ruins.

    Crackhead Albert
    This episode originally aired during the Crack epidemic of the early 80's that I have always equated this episode with that ever since. It was like Little House jumps into the 1980's---this episode was so bizarre and surreal to watch...like a Little House Afterschool Special. Even now almost 40 years later it still makes me cringe while viewing it.

    I admit to a strong dislike to the character of Albert. Since the Ingalls picked the dirty urchin off the streets of Winoka I could never accept him. And when he killed Mary's baby I despised him forever.

    The only good thing I can say about Albert is that he thankfully dies by the end of the series. I know Laura says he became a doctor later on, but I choose to ignore that tacked on voice over and relish the thought he eventually died of a crack overdose and is reunited with Sylvia in hell.
