Emancipation does not mean to be free. It literally means to "free out of the hand" but does nothing for a people conditioned for inferiority and discrimination. Soldiers are debriefed when released from an enemy before being returned to general or military population. No forty acres or mules but plenty of legal and illegal violence, discrimination.
What about the people that don’t watch TV shows. If we have to look to the Entertainment Industry for lessons and examples on morality and ethics we are truly lost.
Oh how I wish their were more people in this world like Ben Cartwright his sons. The world would be a lot better place. Treat people, especially women with kindness, compassion and understanding.
I think this was the episode that made me fall for Joe so completely. He was shown at his best. His beauty, courage and complete tenderness were brought out by the lovely little Tsu Ling. They interacted really well together.
i know im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a way to get back into an instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my password. I appreciate any help you can give me!
The look on Ben's face at 17:15 is priceless. It reminds me of watching a good movie back in the 1960s when things were very simple. People have good morals and respect each other. When adults were mature and responsible. This is what good TV shows were like back then, instead of the garbage shows like the Kardashians.
Between 1861 and 1867 America was quite familiar with human slavery in every aspect. A Chinese girl by herself with no particular skill would just be a victim.
If there were more people in the world like the Cartwrights, things would be so much better. The Cartwright men were as tough as they come, but with kind, warm hearts. Whenever Ben bellows out Joseph, Little Joe knows he's in trouble. ❤❤😊😊
SOOOOO UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME EPISODE. UNBELIEVABLY EVERY EPISODE IS MORE INTERESTING THAN THE OTHER. I JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES SEEING THE THREE BROTHERS " ADAM, HOSS & LITTLE JOE", ALL TOGETHER PEELING POTATOES TRYING TO HELP "SUE LINN". UNBELIEVABLY HILARIOUS SCENE. 😂😂😂😂😂 LOL 😂😂😂😂😂 LOL.
@@yemijo I’m happily single too. I’ve got a big close knit Italian family, they’re all really great and keep me entertained. Haha And hey, at our age we don’t need (or want) anyone else’s “baggage”!!!! 😂 Take care Frank, stay happy! 😊

This is most definitely one of my most very favorite episodes of Bonanza, so very touching as well as endearing, brings tears to my eyes without fail, the other favorite, although very hard to watch is the one entitled The Crucible with Adam being the main lead, it's somewhat very hurtful to watch because of the horrible treatment Adam Cartwright endured at the hands of that horrible deceitful Peter Cane, ( Actor Lee Marvin) . Pernell did a magnificent job as did Lee Marvin and I have always felt that Pernell should have received an Emmy for that magnificent acting display, those 2 episodes are my most very favorite, especially when Adam was reunited with his family in the end. Pernell said himself that that the Crucible was his most very favorite the one that he truly enjoyed, 👏👏plus he also enjoyed the ones where he was allowed to display his musical abilities and I totally agree with him, but yeah this episode and the Crucible always pulls at my heartstrings, my tissue is always at hand whenever I watch either one of them. 👍💯🙂❤️👏
I love western shows movies especially bonanza it good show i live it i watch all time how enteract with each other and love one another and help out each other they come together amen amen god bless
@@leslassiter6378Thank G-d you aren't living in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Communist China, North Korea, Iran, Iraq, or South Africa...to name a few. Sure we have issues to deal with, but this isn't a country to knock.
@@user-pd7il3xz5j ,what the hell are you even talking about? I made a simple comment about the value of freedom and, like a complete moron, you read things into it that aren't even there. I never mentioned any countries and I didn't knock anything. I am a one hundred per cent American patriot and I love my country and the principles on which it was founded, as put forth in the constitution and bill of rights. However, since you brought it up, our government is something else again. We currently have a president who ignores the law and tries to rule over us like a bloody tyrant. He is a drooling idiot who screws up everything he touches. He has grandiose delusions and thinks he is going to be the first communist dictator of America. Your time would be better spent fighting for your freedom before you lose it forever.
As an easterner myself (from Eastern Europe) I too felt the same culture shock as Su Ling. When communism ended in my country, I was able to return to FREEDOM.
So much love and appreciation for love, speaking like of wonderful book of heart felt poetry, new found friendship, and new found cultural freedom, sounds so beautiful; Su lin. Another feature of teaching the strange beauty of family, love, protection, and friendships.
@n/a I recently saw on TH-cam a video made by Missouri University on slavery in Missouri where they were plentiful but used in smaller numbers for farming than in the large numbers on the southern plantations. I commented I wished the video had also gone more in to what happened to them after they were freed. Did they just stay on those farms anyway? Were they paid by the farmers and could the farmers afford to pay them or were they just fed for working on the farms? Did they just stay on the farms not having anywhere else to go but could now leave if they chose?
@n/a i tried looking it up on the internet yesterday. I read some Missouri slaves went to Kansas and other parts of the West and some went to Canada. Many though obviously remained so I really do not know.
While the Actors&Writers, Strike is Happening this is a Great time to Demand as a Public for more Teachable, Loving, Caring and Yet Honorable Programing for Ourselves and Our Families.
It's always better when the four Cartwright s were together.What a shame Su Ling didn't become a regular.She & Hop Sing would've made a great team.And that General & friends need to learn how to treat horses!Those guys deserve what they got.
The pride on Hop Sing’s face over her was priceless to see. What a special series. You’d never see this kinda talent today and always a moral to the story. I guess that’s why they call it Hollyweird now.
I love 💕🤗 that Bonanza showcased all the races in their episodes. Also they instilled history about true to life people and events. I always reach the real names of title characters mentioned in the episodes.
Nice episode. I don't see Bonanza winning any awards in woke Hollywood today, but this was a very mature portrayal of period China., given the twin periods involved. 1840s and 1960s.
Lisa Lu is still alive age 94 and still cute. I was wondering if she was actually singing when she played the instrument and sang so fetchingly. Maybe because she has a daughter who is a successful musician playing traditional songs. Successful enough to have a bio at wiki. Landon seems quite attracted to her, see the scene under the birdcage when he puts her hand on his thigh. Who would't because she's as cute as it comes. Several phrases she momentarily reverts to an american accent, that must be difficult to do an entire role in Chinese emigrant English. Pernell bored as usual. Dan and Lorne super as usual.
@@BlackangelKatakuri Her name is Lucia Hwong. She graduated from Columbia University in ethnomusicology and famous in concert houses around the world for her expertise on the "Pipa", a Chinese lute.
I didn't notice that bit with his thigh, but when I rewatched it, she didn't take her hand away LOL. As you say, who would? She's as cute as a button and so is he!
24:17 That instrument is a Japanese "Biwa". Not a Chinese "Pipa". Which I assume they mistakenly thought it was. But it still sounded pretty all the same.
Leaves his cash on the table. Doesn't clarify if he will win the horse or the girl... I'm betting that he wins the girl and doesn't like it.... Yes. :D Su Ling: Master manipulator. :D Bizarre that Joe mentions Hop Sing but we don't see him. "Hop Sing says her name means tinkling bell of virtue i" They don't explain why he is not there. If not there, how did Joe talk to him? Oh, there he is. They just didn't want him in the first scene where it would have made the most sense for him to be there. "She bottomless well of ignorance." Quite the sentence for an English learner. :D But it was great! 27:55 Why isn't Joe telling her to take the nursing job?! That would set her free. I expected that she would take the job and then the Chinese general would come looking for her but she is free now. Maybe he even sees that her work here is more important than coming home with him.... unlikely. :) Finally, she does decide to work with the doctor, but they ride with only Joe when a small "army" wants to kidnap her? Will the General listen, kill her or be killed? Kidnapping wouldn't properly end the story. I was thinking "Why is he still standing there after the general quickly dropped the white flag, which is surely the signal to fire... Oh, because they want Joe to get shot. Wouldn't it have been more compelling if the shot was fired as he dropped the flag and Joe was diving behind the rock? Why didn't the doctor take out the General before he could swing at Joe? He had the perfect positioning. They want Joe to be the unbelievable hero. Boring. Sure, they were following, but way back, too far to be of use. Could have had them battling the others while Joe battles the general. Perhaps that's too much concurrent action for the times. It was a strong beautiful storyline that was let down by a formulaic ending. Surely there doesn't need to be a final gunfight in every episode. What do you think? How would you have ended it. Wouldn't it have been far more compelling if Su Ling had joined the doctor and the final confrontation was between the general and the doctor, perhaps even the Chinese community? The doctor or other community leader could talk to the general with a shared understanding but the doctor or community leader schools the general that they are not in China anymore. The General could say that he controls his area in San Francisco. The leader replies, "Well, you're not in San Francisco either, you're in Virginia City, where all Chinese are free! Your ways are outdated and unacceptable here." The general could still decide to fight but there could be some comedy with the Cartwrights trying to fight but each time they turn to point a gun at a soldier, a local Chinese person takes him out first. At the end, the four Cartwrights all have bewildered embarrassed faces and then say something like "Well, I'm glad we could help!" as they chuckle. The doctor or community leader can then say. "You did the most important work. You showed Su Ling that she could be free."
Very funny and good episode of seasom three suleng and joe dialogue u know English and then ben and joe conversation the boy age like u don't know the difference between u and a horse was very cute and whem Ben said u no3 son u stay away from games u don't know what will be stakes are
If only our public schools could teach gratitude and patriotism toward this country for FREEDOM rather than spewing hatrid and violence toward each other. I admire the immigrants entering our country legally to love this country as their own and enjoy FREEDOM.🇺🇸👍
Britain stopped America from importing slaves but could not stop the scientific breeding of Black slaves. America didn't like the free Chinese competing commercially with whites.They openly posted signs, labels, saying buy white made products. Eventually Congress passed the Asian Exclusion Act to keep Asians out of America. The civil war was about keeping the UNION intact not about ending slavery or human rights violations. Whites finally decided they had made a mistake with emancipation and Jim crow,ku Klux klan black codes were born to keep Blacks "in their place". Former slave owners were given monetary reparations,and stolen Native lands.Where did Ben Cartright get money to have all that former Native land? Whites from Europe were allowed to flood America ,given land and land grant college scholarships to teach them how to farm. Blacks and Natives were excluded. Many of the Cartright neighbors would have high openly racist views like a Trump or worse.
They are trying to eliminate the little Black history that is taught in public schools.CRT which is a graduate law school course is feared. History is really interesting. Of all the subjects we can study it is history that is best qualified to reward our research:Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
European "settlers" entered illegally without Native people's permission and refused to leave. Manifest Destiny to make America white from sea to shining sea. America treated the whole continent of Africa as one county.More Germans were allowed into America on a yearly basis than Africans and mixed semitic Arabs countries combined.
@@crystalhowardsgirls4874 oh really with today's Hollywood trying to be on the right side of History can you really sit there and tell me. That they would let a man be misogynistic of enough to have a servant's slave turn into one of his many wives. And forcibly take her against her will yeah this show could not be made now a days at least in this political climate
1:42 I swear to god when he suddenly raised his hand I thought he was going to clobber little Joe lol. 22:00 Little Joe giving face signals to the bird 26:19 "I want you to meet Kam Lee. He's a wonderful fellow and the best doctor in this town". But he's never been seen before in this series and never will be seen again lol. 40:50 What do they expect the general is going to do if she goes with the doctor in Virginia City? Be too afraid of the doctor and give up? It's like they all got amnesia and forgot about the general. 45:50 For a well trained army they couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag.
Remind me of an episode (Enter Mark Twain) in season 1 where Adam brought home a lad thinking the lad is a boy who turned out to be a girl and Little Joe telling Adam that he can help him tell the difference between a boy and a girl.
The Cartwrights treated everyone with equal respect and dignity. What a great example for any TV show! Bravo Bonanza. And thanks for sharing this. ❤️

I think one reason our society is suffering is that very few shows with great ethics like Bonanza no longer exist today on television
Ethics died and was replaced with virtue signaling.
Or virtual reality tv
True

Yep, Could be!

Very good acting with the special guests.

LoL...I love the scene at 46:49 where the bullet hole in Joe's right shoulder mysteriously disappeared.
I guess since Joe's shirt magically repairs itself that's why the doctor bothered to unbutton it to get to the bullet wound.
Well that's some pretty serious medical intervention, wiping it with a cloth.
Su ling so beautiful the way the cartrights doted on her classic lines and that of the general about little Joe

That was a good episode !
Wow this was a beautiful episode which was probably somewhat realistic considering the feudalistic nature of that time period in China.
The general reminded me of Genghis Khan of 19th century
Like china was still in medieval times in 19th century and the general reminded me of genghis khan

Well, this is one Cartright love interest that didn't get wiped out. 😊
It is the wise man who recognizes the face of necessity the general said too
Around 39:00 , I see Little Joe has loaded up her possessions in a wagon, to bring her to the doctor -- but I don't see the birdcage and wind chimes
24:17 That instrument is a Japanese "Biwa". Not a Chinese "Pipa". Which I assume they mistakenly thought it was.
But it still sounded pretty all the same.

At the end, the four Cartwrights all have bewildered embarrassed faces and then say something like "Well, I'm glad we could help!" as they chuckle. The doctor or community leader can then say. "You did the most important work. You showed Su Ling that she could be free."
My favorite episode so far
Awesome, glad you liked it! 🤠👌🎬🍿
I ❤️ love it poor su Ling I feel so 😔 for her make me want to 😢 I ❤️ pa Adam hoss and little Joe for helping her
If you’re here for the song 24:08
LOL opener was hilarious.
Watching from China..good one...but my students don't speak English that sounds like translated Chinese poetry,sadly.
It seems very made up to me too. Is there a particular term for this type of diction?
“Free mr gordon..from life’s pain” 😅
I always feel sorry for the horses. They seem to get treated so roughly in these old westerns.
Little Joe engaging the general that sword like a saber or scythe
Very funny and good episode of seasom three suleng and joe dialogue u know English and then ben and joe conversation the boy age like u don't know the difference between u and a horse was very cute and whem Ben said u no3 son u stay away from games u don't know what will be stakes are
It surprises me that Hop Sing didn't get jealous of Su Ling.
Great Episode! It seems odd that The Sheriff
played no role in the story. But...who cares, its great entertainment
Little Joe getting shot in the right shoulder as usual.
Good bird..su ling..😀
Hopsing be thinking
Wait. Let her stay !
I can raise her as my daughter
Sue Ling was so pretty
The one gambler played the sheriff in the episode "song in the dark"
The mandolin or lute came from china into medieval Europe its related I think to the lute the sitar is from India
The general lived by the sword and died by it
"number 3 son" hahaha
At 46:48, where did Joe's bullet wound go?
Hahaha. I saw that too.
Around 42:02 , Little Joe needed a cell phone to call his dad to come 🙂
Asian characters back then all spoke like fortune cookies......
If only our public schools could teach gratitude and patriotism toward this country for FREEDOM rather than spewing hatrid and violence toward each other. I admire the immigrants entering our country legally to love this country as their own and enjoy FREEDOM.🇺🇸👍
Britain stopped America from importing slaves but could not stop the scientific breeding of Black slaves. America didn't like the free Chinese competing commercially with whites.They openly posted signs, labels, saying buy white made products. Eventually Congress passed the Asian Exclusion Act to keep Asians out of America. The civil war was about keeping the UNION intact not about ending slavery or human rights violations. Whites finally decided they had made a mistake with emancipation and Jim crow,ku Klux klan black codes were born to keep Blacks "in their place". Former slave owners were given monetary reparations,and stolen Native lands.Where did Ben Cartright get money to have all that former Native land? Whites from Europe were allowed to flood America ,given land and land grant college scholarships to teach them how to farm. Blacks and Natives were excluded. Many of the Cartright neighbors would have high openly racist views like a Trump or worse.
They are trying to eliminate the little Black history that is taught in public schools.CRT which is a graduate law school course is feared. History is really interesting. Of all the subjects we can study it is history that is best qualified to reward our research:Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
European "settlers" entered illegally without Native people's permission and refused to leave. Manifest Destiny to make America white from sea to shining sea. America treated the whole continent of Africa as one county.More Germans were allowed into America on a yearly basis than Africans and mixed semitic Arabs countries combined.
"Don't be a head-block."
This show couldn't have been made now a days
If the Public Demands it, these types of Programming can be created. Just Updated these more understandable times.
@@crystalhowardsgirls4874 oh really with today's Hollywood trying to be on the right side of History can you really sit there and tell me. That they would let a man be misogynistic of enough to have a servant's slave turn into one of his many wives. And forcibly take her against her will yeah this show could not be made now a days at least in this political climate
BONANZA LA serie di film più bella e interpreti grandiosi ,(peccato non traduzione IN ITALIANO ✍👏🤝
cool
1:42 I swear to god when he suddenly raised his hand I thought he was going to clobber little Joe lol.
22:00 Little Joe giving face signals to the bird
26:19 "I want you to meet Kam Lee. He's a wonderful fellow and the best doctor in this town". But he's never been seen before in this series and never will be seen again lol.
40:50 What do they expect the general is going to do if she goes with the doctor in Virginia City? Be too afraid of the doctor and give up? It's like they all got amnesia and forgot about the general.
45:50 For a well trained army they couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag.
Thanks for your criticism
@@miszjackson7957 Thanks for appreciating it. I love Bonanza and that's what makes me care enough about it to find these little flaws.
They don’t make shit like this no more boy 💨
Remind me of an episode (Enter Mark Twain) in season 1 where Adam brought home a lad thinking the lad is a boy who turned out to be a girl and Little Joe telling Adam that he can help him tell the difference between a boy and a girl.
Su Lin sweet flower of a lady
Wait till pa hears about it
No woman died in this episode 😊
The general forgets that he is in a new country where there is no slavery.( ha-ha)
Poor girl had to learn about freedom.
