Another adventures of Ben Cartwright and his sons (Pernell Roberts, Dan Blocker, Michael Landon and Mitch Vogel) as they run and defend their ranch while helping the surrounding community.
I agree with G itt's very interesting to put things in historical perspective whether or not they have been fictionalized. You didn't say that this makes the show bad and should be avoided. The people freaking out are the only ones, incorrectly. making that jump.
Pretty stupid of the Chief to agree to go to the trial when there was little reason to think he'd avoid the hangman's noose. Was he that easily manipulated by Joe calling him a coward? And how could everyone know that the chief was so famous as the most wanted person around, but Joe and Hoss be the only ones not to know that? They had to take him to Ben to have Ben tell them? Once they did know about it they should have got him out of town as quickly as possible. They had no business making a promise to him that thtey could keep him safe when they had no way to do that. They should have gotten him away then negotiated a temporary immunity and safe passage for his testimony and THEN brought him back. . And how convenient that every time in this series that they had to deal with a Native person that they always spoke fluent English. Instead of going through that same comedy routine each time where they spoke to him in broken english on and on only to him him suddenly and unexpectedly reveal that he speaks fluent english all along, they should just say "Hi, the writers have written you into this plot so you must speak perfect English. How's it going?" That would save a lot of time.
Not back then, and often not today even. In Canada it's still called the The Indian Act (long name An Act to amend and consolidate the laws respecting Indians,[1] Loi sur les Indiens) ("the Act") is a Canadian act of Parliament that concerns registered Indians, their bands, and the system of Indian reserves.[2][3] First passed in 1876 and still in force with amendments, it is the primary document that defines how the Government of Canada interacts with the 614 First Nation bands in Canada and their members. Not saying it's right to use that term today, but this is how they would have talked at this time.
That was an awesome episode, loved the ending...
That Appaloosa was beautiful
Hot darn it, that was a good episode!
One of my favorite episodes with John Saxon.
i just noticed that Little Joe's horse which is a Pinto , one of them has a black behind and the other one has a white
My favorite episode
Sometimes I do find Ben Cartwright rather funny in way he talked.
He made me 😃at his remark at end of episode.
Great begginin to Epilogue😃😎
Who recognize Cheif Jocova (John Saxon) from Enter the Dragon.
That was great. Thanks!
Money talks B S walks
John Saxon was a handsome man!
I caught that
John Saxon
He was also in one of Bruce Lee's movies
Also the sheriff was in "Joe Kid" a Clint Eastwood movie
Presumably that top lawyer was right in that day in age
@@dartarkana4279 Yeah! I heard he wasn't very happy in his role in Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. Too bad! I enjoyed that Movie so much!
@@dartarkana4279 the jerk sheriff was Gregory Walcott. Watch another Bonanza, A Song in the Dark, to see a gentle side of Walcott.
@@dartarkana4279 thats right .
It was true back in the early years of our country and even more so today, you can get just as much justice as you can afford.
Money talks, B S walks
Only if you got the right script
Wasn’t the Farmer dead he alive lol
Best fucking ending (EVER) …👀👀.i was dying crying so fricken funny had to watch like 10 times lmao!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hoss made a reference to Custer. Bonanza was set in the early and mid 1860s, well before Custer was killed in 1876.
Fair Dinkum, buddy who gives a shit. It's a story, and a great one of many from Bonanza. No need to a smat ass, unless I ou want to be. Seriously
Shows are written for entertainment not accuracy
I get the impression that Custer was famous...or rather infamous long before his last stand! So Hoss' comment is fine!
Thanks Jim, I do appreciate your post. It's good to know the real history, regardless of the inaccuracies in a tv show.

In his own way, a very honest man, ha?

North American continental natives aren't from India (indians)
Their simply referred to as natives

@@oakleysierney1918 you call them what you want natives from North America like to referred to as natives
@@dartarkana4279 This is not about what I want this is about what transpired in a television show.
His best episode was BLACK FRIDAY. Bonanza
