I just read an article on Victor Sen Yung who portrayed Hop Sing. He died in 1980 of tragic circumstances - gas poisoning from a leak in his clay oven while making pottery. Although he was with Bonanza for the entire 14 seasons, several tv shows and was an accomplished chef with a cookbook published, at the time of his death, he was in dire financial straits. Pernell Roberts paid for his funeral expenses and gave the eulogy.
Intense episode about ignorance and racism. Historically accurate. Later to Japanese Americans, Mexican Americans--to people of color. It took guts for Hollywood to go out on a limb. Of course Pernell Roberts understood this, and he advocated for this on Bonanza. Makes me think of Marlon Brando, who also advocated for Human Rights in Hollywood. Yep, love--some of it--this show called Bonanza.

@@eshjane i have zero patience with any of this racist crap accusations. you have no clue of what you are talking about. the show generally has hop sing in more of a chinese caricature. chinese people do not talk like that, normally. in this episode, he has a chinese accent, but it sounds normal, instead of made up. you had damn well better make sure that you know what the hell you are talking about before you accuse someone of being racist. because you went after the wrong damn person. i fight back like a bulldog. STUPID ASS.

Funny, now we know that a young girl who turns to promiscuity is a safe bet to have been inappropriately groomed by a family member(s). Father here likely to have killed her in more than one way.
Saying that "America belongs to Americans" sounds so funny and stupid at the some time, since nobody is an ethnic American. I say that "Greece belongs to Greeks" but it's completely different. We are ethnic Greeks, we speak Greek, use the Greek alphabet, our religion is called Greek Orthodoxy, our names and surnames are Greek, we have Greek customs. Is John Smith an American name? Of course not. It's English. I am what they call Ethnic Nationalist (or Etnicist). An American can not be that, because he doesn't have an American Ethnicity. Americans can be patriots but they can't be Ethnic Nationalist.
Nobody in America trying to work in the fields and or do jobs immigrants do especially MAGA . Why don't you ask specific what jobs are they taking. Biden forgiving student loans. It's time to be together and thankful. Not hateful and selfish. We don't need chaos in America. We need to be more united and inclusive especially the working level with families and people trying to make it in this country. It's plenty has always been plenty for everyone in this country . 22:00
@@jodiegelkerAll that means is they cannot use the Bonanza theme music. It does not mean that they have to use THIS theme music. Really, just silence would be better.
Same Tired Game Played Today ...Blame The Asian . Outsiders Chinese going to take our Jobs ... Messing up our country etc etc . Same players different names and faces ..
We weren’t disturbed by anyone when watching this show,lived in small town and everyone was watching it !
Thanks for sharing this information about the kindness of Parnell Roberts- (Adam C. ) May They Rest In Peace. ❤️❤️💕

Can you tell me where you saw this article? I have been looking for this information.
I love how they never open a window, they just knock the glass out. haha
My family was always in front of the TV when this came on.
This show always brought my family together back in the day. We couldn't wait to watch it.
Mine too
Adam is the best actor in the movies he and his family
Wanting to dive in the screen to help my brother Hop Sing ! 😠
I love that line. Some men will fight even to save one lamb

Native Americans (Indians) had the most racist toward them than anyone else
Pick on Hop Sing big mistake! Mister Hoss want dinner!
Oh, that's fau shau!

Cool to hear Hop Sing without his accent.

That's a racist remark. Good God.

what? what are you talking about?
Hop Sing lost his accent! Then it came back!
I read that the intent in the script was they were speaking Chinese among themselves in the opening scene.
"America for the Americans. There's a pretty tired platform." Quite.
That would be the indians...red Indians, American Indians, Deleware, Navajos...
HopSing sure does speak English better when he's not around the whites.
Another brilliant western well played All

Yes, that's right!

Same here.
Patricia Michon is still alive today at either age 95 or 99.
We had a Chinatown here in Salem Oregon once. You can still see evidence of it.
The Chinese man @ the beginning looks familiar. I think he was in Kung Fu.

Anti-immigrant sentiment and bullying is nothing new.
The USA has never been anti-immigration. It's always been kind to legal immigrants. Invaders are a whole different story.

She saw him drop it from the sky? Lol
Why on earth did you change the intro !?
This was the original I think. Before the more rockin' one.
See to it that the dust town is a fit place to live! Lol
I notice these Chinese men have American accents in this episode. Seems like they should've pronounced it Chinese-Americans.
That’s how it starts
The dude running for Mayor, reminds me of Trump.
I'll say he reminds me of Biden.
@@DkViking1In what way?
Exactly. Preys upon people's fears to gain support, rather than inspiring them.
America for native Americans?
Aw the Chinese during the century of humuliation. That will be no more from now on.

I went to school with Chinese and my father grew up with Chinese Clan he learned much and I did from my Dad

Hop Sing didn't know karate.
Kung Fu.
Total reprobates .

And they do.

Take up the ways of another peaple.The Natives were treated the same!

From S1 E1 ....this show is SO racist against Asian and Native Americans. Like jaw dropping so. Times were certainly different.
The SHOW is not racist, quite the opposite. The show illustrates the stupidity of racism.
See it again. You do not get it. The Cartwrights are teaching the people that everybody is equal in rights and law.
