I was a vegetarian as a kid yet loved the show because it was time spent with my grandmother Nonna and loved seeing Michael Landon as Little Joe. His laugh and smile melted my ❤️. Michael Landon met his future wife Lynn Noe when she appeared as an extra on this episode. (She's the blond saloon girl who sits down at a table on the left as Adam walks through the door.) They were married from 1963-1982 and had four children together before divorcing.
This is Season 1, Episode 29 (originally aired April 9, 1960). There were 431 total Bonanza episodes across 14 seasons. First episode aired September 12, 1959. Last one aired January 16, 1973. The show ranked #1 in Nielsen Ratings during its 6th, 7th and 8th seasons. Bonanza also became a worldwide success as it was broadcast in nearly 50 countries, including Canada, Brazil, Yugoslavia, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Australia, and Japan.
So many of these TV families I wanted to live with. The Cartwrights is one. I just can't believe how long ago this was. They're all gone. Everything's gone. If I were a multi-billionare I'd invest everything I had in a time machine. But THIS machine will take you straight to a day in the life of your favorite fantasy family ! Where would (will) you go ???
Prudence Sidecafe the Bonanza Cartwrights for sure! Actually someone did write a fanfic story of Michael Landon waking up in the actual Cartwright family on the actual Ponderosa in the 1860’s. In this story Michael was rebellious about it; but in my fantasy he enjoys and gets to actually live it instead of just playing little Joe. The Cartwrights get to be his real family and he gets to live out the adventures of Bonanza and be a real life cowboy from that era.
Yeah! I'd LOVE to go live with the Cartwrights and put my life on the line against all those crooks, a sparse justice system, and have far less advanced health care. That'd be awesome!
I had already written myself into the Cartwright household. I'm the daughter Ben didn't know he had. I appear on the scene as the long lost sister and daughter. The script has a bit to fill in. lol
@Cissy Brazil .. you have a great question .. I grew up in the 50's and 60's watching westerns .. Bonanza was the 1st full color western TV series .. because of the huge cost of production .. if you watch all the early seasons .. much of the non episode stock film sometimes is spliced in various shows .. so a days work may not always be just for the next show .. some of it was just stock to splice in later episodes .. using the same wardrobe was important for stock film .. later the wardrobe became a signature for all the Cartwrights .. like little Joes green jacket .. Adams black clothes, etc.. btw .. those original technicolor 3 lens color cameras were like 400 pounds each too ..
@@textsmsmaster9884 This and other shows as well. I have heard interviews where the wardrobes were in short supply and becasue of the schedule were not as clean as you might think...could get pretty ripe by the end of the week, lol
Im only 31 and was raised on Bonanza, Gunsmoke, The Munsters, Addams family and allllll the rest of those oldies. The Cartwrights remind me of my Uncles. Paw being my Oldest uncle that passed awhile back (The Leader, all knowing and Wise) Adam being my 2nd oldest uncle (serious and charming but has his smile every once and awhile.) Haus being my 2nd youngest uncle. (Just a big goof, but will break ya in half if he needs to without realizing he did lol.) And Little Joe being my youngest Uncle (Just a big baby, everybody loves him everywhere he goes, and acts before he thinks.) Thank God (And Pizza Flix) for these old classics!
Better ending: Virginia snatches the gun out of her dead father's hand, and guns down Adam. This triggers a blood-bath on all sides in which everyone is killed in a hail of lead. Ben Cartwright gasps out the last line to camera: 'I guess that's the end of the Ponderosa ...' End of series. Credits roll over images of tumbleweed doing its stuff.
I always wondered why the boys still live with their father and had no wives or children. But in this episode you here that Adam has been dating the same woman for three years ! I guess it comes down to ... why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free. lol
Yeah it's all overlooking the Ponderosa and it's about the Tahoe is 6500 ft in the sky Pyramid Lake is about 8000 feet well there been a lot of people who drowned in Lake Tahoe and that have Roundup in Pyramid Lake down in Carson City so you need a serious wake-up call my young friend get with the program and smell the roses love Jamie
Years ago , watching b/w tv, it was hard to tell if Ben wore a toupee. In colour, the toupee (called the gray rat, by fellow actors) , is very obvious .
