@@jadezee6316 They made it for the times. This show aired from 1959 to 1973. Back then everything was simplified on television. So many things couldn't be touched on the small screen largely because of censorship & the innocence of the time. Also, television was looked to simply as entertainment, a temporary escape from everyday problems & something a family could sit down & enjoy together. What you said here about Bonanza could be said about EVERY tv show of that time & every show had it's own formula it followed week after week. That aside, you even saying this would say to me you probably didn't see a lot of the later Bonanzas. As television grew up, so did Bonanza. It was on for 14 years because of the quality of the program. Later episodes were not always so simple & touched on more serious issues & more in depth characters. Watch the last 5 or 6 complete seasons or so & then see if you feel the same. There are reasons it lasted 14 years & may have gone another year or 2 or 3 if Dan Blocker had not died.
Wow. That was quite an ending. I liked the ending because Rita came to her senses and she did the right thing. She realized that Mace really did love her deeply. I was really touched when Rita threw away the $200 after she realized that she made a terrible mistake after she saw Mace's face because he refused to fight. He was only in the ring because he loved her and she finally realized that. I cried at the ending.
I am seeing more & more things re Bonanza and a big thing is how they, tho' wealthy, highly educated, they never got caught in the "class trap-or war." They cared about people that others would walk over, always sharing, helping when they could. Had I been rich, as Ben, I would have loved having so much that I could change other's lives for the better.
A very intense feature again, I won't repeat what I was feeling for this blonde beauty? However, the all sensing father and friend Ben Cartwright interviews and again express wisdom where selfish self pity on one hand and selfless willingness to gratify on the other, and is balanced into love, the greatest healer, and giver of all. Thank you Bonanza family for another fine example of how life should feel,, and look like.
Ruta Lee! I haven't thought of her in years! She used to be in a lot of these shows (in fact, I'm pretty sure this isn't the only episode of Bonanza she was in). I looked her up; she's still alive and kicking at 86.
Ruta Lee played a "famous" actress in "The Andy Griffith Show." That was a completely different character. She was a superb actress! Thank you for the update about her.
Ruta Lee has gorgeous eyes and a super cute little figure. First time I remember seeing her was on Andy Griffith. She played a Hollywood starlet. She was wearing glamorous dresses and looking really cute in top form. I think she could be a fun person to hang out with and even more fun to marry.
Amazing episode. I read the comments. Pianist David Rose performed a brilliant achromatic score, that was outside the standard fare, and likely upset Western fans. A brave move to do this on Bonanza.
In the description it says something about the piano playing in the background what they don't understand is that she was a successful singer who had her world turned upside down the music you're hearing is a distorted version of her memories of her career but only in a drunken stupor if you've ever had an addiction to alcohol or any other substance and were invested into your music you'd understand more clearly what the writer was aiming at through this episode !!
The music tells us exactly what is going on with the central figure in this drama, her desperate condition. The dialogue and acting alone would not have achieved this. The piano was a stroke of genius. In a way, this was hearkening back to the use of music in the silent movies, before voice was added to film.
Mari, that is a sad comment. I'm sorry. What did you think of the piano Music? Personally I didn't care for it. To me it sounded awkward and out of place.
I live in Clark NJ about 10 mins from a once farm up until about 7 yrs ago. The house is still there but separate from the rest of the land which is now a park called Ponderosa Park. They used to have small farm animals before the farm became a park.
Now I see the symbolism of it. She was lost. She threw down the "30 pieces of silver", as it were. (Like Judas) .... Mace was a pacifist. Like Jesus didn't fight back, but He became bruised for our sins, and wounded for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His stripes we are healed ...... Isaiah 53. Because He loved us ....
It's so nice to watch TV shows demonstrating good, kind and caring Christian Values. If Bonanza was still on TV in 2021 the Ratings would be sky-high.

Don't listen to Jade, their comment was oozing with negativity. Look at all that ooze. And, yes, I've noticed that many of these episodes do teach Christian values. In the Last Haircut for example, Ben prevented Joe from murdering by reminding him how God deals with vengeance. And of course, no one in these shows blasphemes God or has sex outside of marriage or swears, or other disgusting things we see today. I'll never say that this show completely pure morally, it's not, but compared to the unholy smut we see today, it comes close.
@@yougetagoldstar There is swearing. But the words used were considered profanity in the 1800s, just not today. And there was implied sex - camera panning away, etc.
A Woman Lost is a realistic picture of alcoholism. Unfortunately, it is considered a social disease, but is treatable. Enjoying a drink once in a while to relax is fine. I personally like Brandy. But a few shots to relax and get some great sleep. Brandy allows the lungs to clear of gunk and has a pleasant after flavor. When I had mononucleosis, in college, I almost died, but my mother's boyfriend, an awesome person, forced me to drink 3 shots of brandy to get me to sleep. Well, lo and behold, I slept great, my lungs cleared up and I felt great. Louis saved my tail, or I could have died from how bad I had mononucleosis.
I do not find the piano soundtrack a distraction at all! It symbolizes the chaos in the character Rita Marlowe’s mind. In places, it reminded me of some of Charles Ives’ piano improvisations.
In Western movies in general it is a hilarious detail how sloppily they always tither the horse upon arrival to any place, and the horse never run away!
Lots of things are inhuman, WAR, religion, killing animals, destroying Mother Earth, government, pharmaceuticals, insurance, having hate instead of love, apathy.
One of the things I notice more about this program that I did not see as a boy is just exactly how much fighting and personal violence is used to prove the definition of MANHOOD. If that really is true, then in some ways, the future understandings of what constitutes masculinity has become better than it was in the late 50s and early 60s. Thank God for that, at least.
What are you talking about , male and female roles gave been blurred so much its not known anymore , make turning into females and vice versa ,,,, get real will you .
The music played during the scene between Rita and Benwhen she tells him how her husband and children died was so loud, distracting, and totally inappropriate for the saying that it was hard to concentrate on the actors! It was a very strange choice of noise for this emotional scene.
It's supposed to show how garish and terrible her life is now, juxtaposed against the way she used to live. They don't have a ton of time to cover things so that's how they express it.
Wow! A $1000.00 just to stay in the ring for a few rounds and than another $200 to the girl. Must be a rich manager to give that much money away. I paused the fight scene a few times and counted about 30 men at the fight. Been that your average pay back in then days is $1:00 day, I assume admission fee wouldn't be much more then that. That is a whopping 30 bucks made at the box office. Ok lets say I miss counted and there was 50 men in attendance and they all paid $5:00 to get in. Well that covers the girls $200 dollars, plus 50 profit.
I was thinking exactly the same thing. The only way to make it logical is the big fights in the big cities made them a lot of money, so they had plenty to throw around. They were only there so the fighter could add Mace to his list of dead meat.
Earlier, when she first approached Mace, and said she was trying to "stay out of trouble," she should've taken up a project like gardening, basket-weaving, sewing, knitting . . .
Wow that painting at 11:32 …..🫢For a show in the 60s and a saloon in the late 1800s that’s kinda risqué Lol. Or maybe it really wasn’t back then, anyone know for sure.
Very good but didn't make sense that Ben didn't tell him about the $200 before the fight but he didn't mention the $200 so that they could have the final scene of her dropping the money. Even if he didn't mention the $200 specifically, Ben should have said something before the fight, it felt like such a glaring omission when he didn't. They could have still had increasing pleas by Ben. It also didn't make much sense to me why he didn't go longer evading the hits while he was fresh. A boxer needs to take risks to get into position to land a big punch but if focused only on blocking and avoiding, he should last longer IMHO. The crowd reaction wasn't appropriate. They should have been shouting for him to fight back. Most of those in the crowd would know why he doesn't fight any more. It was ok but wasn't compelling. Ben already told him that she got travelling money for talking him into the fight, so it doesn't make any real sense to throw it away. Could have seen her handing it to him, saying "Here, you earned this. I don't even need it anymore." (because I'm staying right here).
Reminds me of my alcoholic sister. Been thst way for 35 years. Not a moral fiber in her body and 60 years old. I cant stand the sight of her. Disgusting!
8:19. She sees to be implying that she'd have no qualms about sneaking into Hop Sing's kitchen, or pantry, and drinking brandy or cooking Sherry, etc.etc
@C Gallagher. I guess that's what being an alcoholic does to a person just like a smoker would do anything for a cigarette 🚬. I was never an alcoholic and I never smoked at all so I'm just guessing.
I'm fairly sure the music is put there by google. I have learned that some people have found a way to turn it off but haven't been able to discover how. Not all people get the irritating noise. I have watched a vid with terrible music yet watched the same vid on someone else's comp and there is no music, but she doesn't know how I can turn it off on mine.
The girl is no good... What happened to the second horse on the buggy after she arrive and the saloon! They carry on to the ponderoza as if they never had one...9:30-12:30? 😂😂😂
Great story but definitely the worst, most horrible piano playing I ever heard (way too loud for background music too)! What kind of bad movie director did put this in!? Nevertheless of course: Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing this old series. Best regards luck and health.
Sorry, but the piano music through this episode was awkward, out of place and flat out annoying. It contributed to the program like mustard "contributes" to chocolate ice cream!

Piano 🎹 playing was horrible at times.
I was about to comment about that music and saw it here.
What were they thinking?
Iv been loosing it at the music to! Then i read your comment. So true
I'm wondering if someone dubbed it in later to avoid copy right issues. I can't remember ever hearing piano like that in a bonanza episode before.
The distorted music was obviously a representation of her distorted mind

30:02 I thought he pulled out his smartphone and started texting 🙂
Ben and his sons are always trying to help someone get on their feet but they don’t have anyone to love!
They love each other.
I'm fairly sure the music is put there by google. I have learned that some people have found a way to turn it off but haven't been able to discover how. Not all people get the irritating noise. I have watched a vid with terrible music yet watched the same vid on someone else's comp and there is no music, but she doesn't know how I can turn it off on mine.
If you find out how to turn the music off, PLEASE let us know.
Great episode.But the WORST MUSICAL SCORE EVER!!!!!!
10:22
....what could possibly go wrong?!
You never did see any other woman enter a saloon in all of Bonanza’s history. Only women in there were the saloon “girls”. Women not allowed!
Isnt that the fighter that almost killed little joe in season 1 😂
What up with the music?
And mace’s purple nose? Think he was a drinker?
This was the guy who beat the shit out of little joe in the 1st season
Actually an episode Joe didn't fall in love with an actress
couldn't handle the loud irritating music, it was not in the original video, it spoiled it, such a shame.
It gave me a headache :(
I disagree, I think it was very appropriate.
Try watching the episode on another download. I do that if something is in repeated downloads of the same show when it’s blurry or sound is bad or off
35:03 that annoying piano music, is just a reflection of her troubled soul
Was the music added by someone else or was it part of the show, it is jarring, ruins the over all experience.
The girl is no good... What happened to the second horse on the buggy after she arrive and the saloon! They carry on to the ponderoza as if they never had one...9:30-12:30? 😂😂😂
Complainers, go elsewhere. You can't get the moral of the story. Your loss.
I agree 100 percent.
37:39 $200 back then was worth more than $2000 (?)
45:09 Mace is a pacifist! Wow
42:44 .... Oh, _now_ you tell me!!!!
Pasenlo al castellano x favor
Great story but definitely the worst, most horrible piano playing I ever heard (way too loud for background music too)! What kind of bad movie director did put this in!? Nevertheless of course: Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing this old series.
Best regards luck and health.
28:27 Does anyone know what is edited here?
Great episode shame about the crazy piano player! totally out of place.
What's the name of that person who works at saloon
Sorry, but the piano music through this episode was awkward, out of place and flat out annoying. It contributed to the program like mustard "contributes" to chocolate ice cream!
