Was Jason Bateman on Little House on the Prairie?

Jason Bateman Little House on the Prairie

While Jason Bateman is most familiar to people for his later work, such as Valerie, Silver Spoons, Arrested Development and Ozark, his first acting credit was appearing on the Little House on the Prairie television show.

Jason Bateman appeared in 21 episodes as James Cooper Ingalls, a child that the Ingalls family adopts.

He first appears during season seven in The Lost Ones (Part One) when his character James and his sister Cassandra (who was played by Melissa Francis) are orphaned.

His final appearance on the series was on the episode He Was Only Twelve (Part Two) during season eight.  When the show transitions to Little House: A New Beginning, where the show focused on the lives of Laura and Manly instead of the Ingalls, he was no longer a part of the show as the Ingalls have moved.
