But jokes aside, Albert getting hooked on morphine and Pa taking him to a cabin in the woods to get clean was actually pretty accurate. And later when Pa found the guys who shot Albert and nearly beat them to death was far more violent than your average “family” show.
I’ll never forget the episode where Nellie had Pa’s head cutoff in the town square, then made Laura go look at it with her.
Or when Nellie shot the hooker with a crossbow because she was bored.
Yeah, that show got dark after the 3rd (or was it the 4th?) season.
3rd.
