Removed "Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome," which was not the trope in this case. This was an adult actor ceasing to make himself look younger, with an in-universe excuse offered - not a child character's age being artificially advanced.

* SoapOperaRapidAgingSyndrome: Happens to Charles after season 8 following a very bad winter. His hair has deflated a little from its perm and gone completely gray and he's lost the drive to be a farmer anymore. In reality, it's all just an excuse for Michael Landon to leave the show, and he was treating his hair to look younger up until now, when he let his real age show.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: The pilot movie's characterization of Caroline largely takes its cues from the original book series, making her a SugarAndIcePersonality with a tendency to be a bit of an uptight wet blanket. Beginning with the first proper episode, "Harvest of Friends," she has become noticeably more of a warm and sweet, "classic" television mother in the vein of June Cleaver or Carol Brady, and stays that way throughout the show's run.

** Luke Simms never wears shoes because he just never really took a liking to them, first noted when Ms. Beadle accidentally steps on his bare toes. Harriet Oleson finds that repugnant when her daughter takes to courting a "barefoot bumpkin".

The girl whose family she lived with even ditched her shoes anytime she went indoors (although it's pretty clear that the only reason she's seen with shoes during filming outside is for practical reasons, because it would obviously be painful to the untrained feet to walk across rocks and other junk barefooted).

* SurpriseMultipleBirth: Nellie gives birth to twins after she and her husband Percy spent most of the episode thinking they were only expecting one. In addition, they'd decided on raising the baby as Jewish if it were a boy and as a Christian if it were a girl; and both sets of grandparents were eager to see what religion the baby would be raised as. {{Justified|Trope}}, as this takes place well before the advent of sonograms.
