## Resource

Alison Arngrim, the iconic Nellie Oleson from the original Little House on the Prairie, makes a surprise return in Netflix’s reboot, playing a mysterious forest dweller named Ida. She landed the role in just two weeks, embraced the eerie, offbeat vibe, and praised the young actresses for their authentic on-screen bond. Arngrim also reflected on the strange legacy of child stardom — how fans still obsess over her 12-year-old mischief decades later — and gave candid, hilarious advice to the next Nellie: own the role, laugh in the face of hate, and build real friendships with your on-screen rivals. Season two promises more Nellie chaos — and this time, it’s coming for you. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
