No one ever mentioned that Joe probably saved a life preventing that mountain lion from jumping them!!
What a great episode. So many important life lessons contained in it. How the marrying kind of love is much deeper than liking someone or having sympathy for someone. And in the end, both Joe and Tessa came to realize that neither of them possessed that kind of love for each other.
Agreed. Great character interaction in this one. Also probably the closest the Cartwrights will ever get to being married. I can't imagine a scenario where they get closer, but I havent seen all the episodes yet.
And Ben was so magnanimous. He could have exposed her when he knew that she could see, but instead he gave thought as to what to do. He would have been justified in being angry at the deception and cast them out, but instead he continues to be kind and help them.
He couldn't possibly have hit her. He was shooting upwards at the cougar.
@@scootergurl48 Well no, the bullet ricocheted off the rock and struck Tessa across the temple. Besides, that's how the script was written. 😀
Yes, it takes courage and honesty to admit to yourself, and the one who loves you more than you love them, that you don't have the level of love and commitment towards them that's necessary for marriage.
That was a nice moment when Tessa and Joe were finally honest with each other.
A nice little tale about the befits of telling the truth, and the first of little Joe's many little romances. Seriously, nicely done. And to tell the truth, just a little sad, too. Grjngo is the very best!
I am quite sure that by Season 5, Little Joe has experienced many love romances .
@Joe Owens. I agree Joe. It's extremely important to always tell the truth. Look what happened when Tessa's dad lied to the Cartwrights about her having a fiancee and how her fiancee didn't want her anymore because she's blind. I think that increased Little Joe feeling guilty which caused him to be impetuous when he proposed to her. In my opinion, marriage should not be taken lightly. A successful marriage is based on the old saying "it's what's inside that counts." It's also based on unconditional love for each other. I'm glad that both Tessa and Joe realized that. I will admit that I do enjoy Little Joe's romances. This was an excellent episode.
@Joe Owens. I agree that the ending was sad, but at least Tessa realized that she didn't love Little Joe with the unconditional love that's necessary for a marriage.
Denver Pyle is in so many of these episodes. Great actor. Always a pleasure.
Uncle Jessie😊
I really enjoyed it when Denver Pyle played Briscoe Darling in "The Andy Griffith Show." He was awesome 👌!
@@lynettepalecek3141 I prefer him in these type roles rather than his hillbilly characters.
I do not remember Denver looking like that.
I'm just glad the cougar got away 😱♥️☮️
My thoughts exactly. I hate seeing animals mistreated or killed, even if it's just on tv.
Bro
That cougar was about to pounce on a wagon full of people. Now that it got away it's free to try again.
For a parent to use a child for their own gain is despicable.
Just like Joesph Jackson.
We see that everyday as parents use the welfare system to declare children Adhd just for extra benefits 😳
S.g. feuriger Stern
👍👌👏 Fa haben sie völlig Recht. Allerdings passiert dies in aller Welt auf diverse Arten leider sehr häufig.
Viele Grüße, Glück und Gesundheit.
you mean like ben does
@@jamesbrown-ow7xz no he doesn’t
Wow. Tessa's dad was giving her very bad advice when he told her not to tell Little Joe that she can see. I think that Ben should have told Little Joe that Tessa can see. I'm sure glad that Tessa did the right thing at the end by finally realizing that she didn't love Little Joe with the unconditional love that's needed for a marriage.
It's sad to think that he thought more of himself and his own greed than he did for his daughters happiness. But that actually happened a lot back in those days. Folks married out of necessity and hoped that love would come later, which it often did. Nowadays folks marry out of lust only to find it won't ever lead to happiness and love. It either ends in hurt and divorce or they continue being content in their unhappiness. And once in a great while two beautiful souls join and live happily ever after.
This is a year old comment I know, but I was also expecting Ben to break the news. I think he didn't because he didn't want to break Joe's heart because he had enough faith in the Tessa's character to believe she would tell him. When he first saw her, looking in the mirror I was ready for a customary scene of Ben calling someone out on their BS. I was pleasantly surprised that none of the Cartwrights, aside from maybe a tiny bit of Hoss, thought she was just taking them for a ride and marrying Joe for his money, which would be a plot point that would easily fit in earlier Bonanza writing.
How many blindnesses hold us back from completely loving ourselves, and the willingness to move on and expand into new adventures of our own scary as these adventures may seem?
Tessa's dad don't care about her he's only in it for the money family is important
I suppose you mean family is not important to him.
Awesome actors
A beautiful movie. I loved Ben’s conversations with her and how she took every word he spoke, straight to her heart. The saddest thing about this movie though, one of the other comments I read. That if the circumstances had been different, they could have met and fallen, truly in real love ❤️
It's not a movie. It's a TV show
Another great episode and learning experience!!👍🏾👍🏾All well that ends well when truth can be faced!!👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾
No doubt! Check out this film as well if you haven't already: th-cam.com/video/neVv7mHJ_5A/w-d-xo.html
46:43 I love that brilliant blue cape, or whatever it is
These are the types of programs we urgently need to revive as it teaches decency which is a virtue that we as a society are losing rapidly.
I miss shows like this....and when I was young, I thought, 'so hokey'...well, live and learn.
It's funny how kids think everything hokey is so cool. Then when they outgrow their childish stupidity, only then do the truly hokey things start to look hokey.
This was a painful episode to watch except for the outstanding performance by Marlyn Mason. She took some very hackneyed dialogue and rendered it gold. And Michael Landon and Lorne Greene played their parts well too. However, it was still painful to watch, knowing that an otherwise perfect bride for Joe would leave at the end. A very sad episode. But thanks for airing it. It was worth it just to watch Marlyn deliver such a fine, nuanced performance.
a woman pretending to be blind in order to shake down little joe is the perfect bride....according to this man hater...
and btw..this mason person stinks as an actress
Not sad to me. Awesome. Why? I married back in the 80s... when I shouldn't have. Same for her towards me. Love? Yeah... but not enough for MARRIAGE. At 24, I knew there was potential trouble, but me and my Christian self said, if I love this woman right, the LORD would do the rest. Wrong. Marriage takes two. Well, eventually divorced. Better to wait for the right one, for the right reasons.
@@kevc21 Sorry you had to go through that. And you're right; there is a love you can have for someone, and then there's the marrying kind of love. Also too, it would not have been un-Christian to call off the engagement. But I may be misunderstanding that part of your text.
Michael Landon featured a blind character on "Little House on the Prairie" Blind people, people with one arm are seldom recorded in shows
What happened to her in that opening scene? It was if she was on meth the way she acted in that part.
How handsome and what a sweet face Michael Landon has
The father blew it all up, Just because of money. I would never do this to my daughter
Another brilliant episode.
The acting in the opening scene was hilarious lol
Thank you! I was hoping at least someone else noticed. Amateur hour.
There's an episode in which Little Joe goes blind. They hire a teacher to show him how to function, then he gains his sight and doesn't need her.
What episode was that called
@@bethanyharris4543 Hey. It's "The Stillness Within". Season 12, episode 24. It's an wonderful, touching episode.
Did a blow to the head cause him to regain his vision like in this one?
Marlyn Mason did a superb job playing a blind woman! 👏. I don't know how many of you know this, but Melissa Sue Anderson who played Mary Ingalls in "Little House on the Prairie" wore special contacts that caused her to literally not be able to see anything when she played Mary Ingalls. I don't know if Marlyn Mason did that in this episode of "Bonanza" or not.
Probably, she had the same look. And it would have been likely for Landon to use the same tricks he learned on Bonanza for his show. Strange though, that the Ingles being dirt poor took Mary to San Fancisco to see a specialist but the Cartwrights didn't even try that.
Wonderful episode!!.
I love the relationship between Ben and Joe. They were affectionate towards each other. Ben didn’t hug his other boys like he did Joe, with the exception of Jamie some years later.
Little Joe always was Pa Ben's spoiled boy. He loved him best
There's an episode in which there is a tearful embrace with Adam. I think his fiancee died.
Lorne and Michael I believe as well as Dan were all close friends off camera. They didn't like Parnell much.He was always complaining. They were glad when he left the show.
@@sandrawilson6031 That's not true. They didn't dislike Pernell Roberts.
@@sandrawilson6031 Can you please show me the reliable source you got that info. It’s very nice for those well educated audiences to know the fact rather than from fake news. Thank you very much.
Interesting to see Denver Pyle in other types of roles. The first time I saw him was as Mad Jack in Grizzly Adams in the mid-70s.
I remember Denver Pyle as Briscoe Darling in "The Andy Griffith Show." I really liked him in that show.
I had forgotten he was on Grizzly Adams. He will always be Uncle Jessie from The Dukes of Hazzard to me. He played so many great characters on Gunsmoke as well.
@@jabbersheart Don't forget him playing Briscoe Darling in the "Andy Griffith Show." He was awesome in that show!
@@lynettepalecek3141 Definitely didn't forget that character. Loved when they would perform with Andy.
@@jabbersheart Yes, I did too. Of course, the Darling boys were a real musical 🎼 group called "The Dillards." In real life Maggie Peterson who played Charlene Darling performed with "The Dillards." She died.
I heard that no one ever gets married, so I knew it would end without a marriage
There is a marriage in Season 14.
@@CathyKitson SPOILER ALERT!🤤
Not true, there were 2 episodes! 1CARTWRIGT son got married, it was little Joe! End of program for good.
Loved this episode!
A powerful episode. As always, many lessons involved.
Getting married in front of those gun racks. Is that what you call a shotgun wedding?
No, a shotgun wedding is a wedding arranged in response to pregnancy resulting from premarital sex.
WOW!
This is the only episode with only 1 gun shot!
What? One gun shot? How about a knock down, drag out, knock the tables over fist fight? Any of those there?
Another fine episode.....Thanks for uploading it.
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it! 👌🎬😀
Briscoe Darling without the hillbilly accent ✌🏾😎
And Briscoe Darling was a much better father than this guy!
The brother and father are freeloaders.
yes.
Notice that, did you
Always blame the man when the woman was doing the same thing.
Adam and Joe should never go hunting together. Reference: My Brother's Keeper
What a wicked greedy and selfish old goat.
Uncle Jessie!
Yep, also Mad Jack from Grizzly Adams.
Deep chapter, anybody could be at the same situation..its better to be humble
I feel bad for little joe he didn’t mean to blind her he was after that cougar
A cougar that changed colour, clever cat!
@@pernellgirly8064 🤨🙄😒 whatever
44:53 , but I wish she had spoken out like two days before the actual wedding, or even earlier.
I miss tv show where men were gentlemen just because it was the right thing to do.
I miss those shows too.
44:02. .... ....... Yes, dear Little Joe, my Papa is a real con artist. !
Thanks Gringo!
28:16 approximately, the perfect time for her to blurt out , *Little Joe, isn't it wonderful, I can see" . . . ?!? Hmmm
As soon as he walked in the door, she should have run to him and told him she could see. Honestly, the writers wrote everything out so horribly sometimes. It was so obvious that they were filling time to make a show.
But she was caught in that dilemma, she was being pressured by her father and brother. I say it made the episode even deeper and the character's decision more challenging.
a real sleazy family...the daughter is temporarily blinded and the father only cares about how much money he can get...then the daughter recovers her sight and goes along with the con...
It's sad that the father and son wanted to use their daughter/sister to gain what THEY wanted and "guilted" her into it. Sad she wasn't strong enough to say, "No" to them.
She eventually found her strength. Ben really came through with that talk he had with her: didn't lecture, didn't reveal that he knew the truth, didn't tell her what to do, just expressed his faith in her.
Yes, but like Ben said at the end about her family using the Cartwrights: "Oh Tessa, your heart was never really in it."
How could Pernell Roberts have said that the script's we're light weights? This episode is about as deep as TV gets
Well nowadays maybe
Parnell had no range, everything he did was subdued, a half hearted attempt at acting. From his facial gestures to his manerisms he was generic at best.
@@johnbipper4601 Pernell's performances were very poor, they had no action, it was very bland, I watched the series when I was little and I didn't realize those things but now that I'm older, hehe, I see everything differently and God rest his soul, but Pernell I don't like anything I don't know, I see it even ugly, if it doesn't come to be for Lorne, Dan and Michael I don't see it again these three wonderful people
@@johnbipper4601 That's right, I've always said they could have gotten anyone to play his part the sleepy way he played it. He didn't enjoy the role and it showed.
Tesa getting her eye sight back falling down the stairs is just like Eddie saying "falls in the well eyes go cross get kicked by a mule eyes go normal I don't know"
Isn’t this joes 4th engagement and wedding plans?
Watching this episode for the first time, when Adam walked through the door seemingly out of nowhere I was guessing that *he* would be the one to find out the truth. I was surprised that it was Ben. And then when Ben told Hoss, who also showed up seemingly out of nowhere, I was guessing that *he* would tell Little Joe. Just goes to show how well this episode was written.
Around 15:02 ..... "Oh, Little Joe, umm .... Actually, my father was _lying_ to ya'll. .... That was just a lot o' blarney ....."
Tesa is quite a lovely name .
I was disappointed because Tessa and little Joe had the beginnings of what can turn into the marriage kind of love. They just had a lot of outside selfish influences around them that were neither of their faults. This would have been a great Turning Point in Bonanza for Little Joe and Tessa to continue their relationship. But apparently the producers and writers just thought on to the next episode rather than develop this out.
25:17 "oh, my daughter, it's not that easy, . . . Don't you see, we must lie to them . . . It's not that easy" !
Boy I am glad it turned out the way it did.
At 4:37 you can catch the microphone as she walks down the stairs. It dips down right at the deer head's antlers.
Small and dark grey; nice catch
Maybe the Cartwrights were trying to secretly record her to find out the truth about her intentions.
Love is blind.
People in this show knew right from wrong, had high moral standards like the bible teaches. Not like today, in this sick world.
Great episode. ! Not sure who was blind here. Tessa, her father or Lil Joe !
Notice the look on Adam's face at the ceremony? He knew she was faking.
you should timestamp a comment like that
26:55 "daughter, all my life, I've been waiting to win the lottery, or have a fortune fall into my lap just out of the blue."
I should of counted all the whirle wind romances they have.
Absolutely! But, sadly, it happens a lot..more now than ever..in some cultures, they actually MEET at the wedding..
. So many feelings can masquerade as love.
Great actress!!!! The best ever seen.
I seldom like the young many actresses who acted with Joe esp those who played his girlfriend.
But I like this actress..real sweet pleasant looking😍
Denver Pyle's character as the father was so manipulative and selfish.
He cared about his family and wanted to provide a good life for them. It was his daughter that was selfish not being willing to do what needed to be done.
Funny how Ben cartwright seen her looking n the mirror lil Joe always rush dosing listen good episode
13:28 the daughter has a conscience. ......
At least she didn't die
Every time now meets a girl he wants to martyrdom lol
"See you later papa."
There is no love there thats why she lived
I thought Denver was born old.
Entering aint the only the hustle out here that can make you good money. I think yall just really want the attention & be like by everyone more than anything. & thats a problem. Imo
Denver Pyle sounds so different in this role, compared to Uncle Jesse or Brisco Darling ..
She should've married Little Joe.
After the incident with the wolf, Joe is either very stupid or very forgiving to go hunting with Adam again!
Little Joe shot at a cougar- not a wolf.
I am referring to the incident in My Brother's Keeper.
@@danadowling1706 Okay. You didn't say that in your first comment.
denver pyle was on another episode when he was taking prisoners to prison and thew hoss in the wagon with actual prisoners
Hoss Cartwright brother middle first wedding
Adam Cartwright brother old wedding first
Joseph Cartwright little joe marry Tessa wives
Ben Cartwright son Joseph happy
Ah O shrapnel
Adam Cartwright son1st old
Hoss Cartwright son2nd Middle
Joe Cartwright 3rd son shot girl
Isn't Joe supposed to be a great shot?
I wished they got married
And then they could go off on their own and live in a little house...on a prairie.
@@AndrewVelonis then he became an angel and helped people
Oh give me a break!! Joseph, Is a better shot than that. 30 seconds into this episode
Well now, if Joe had shot the cougar the whole storyline would've been different! 😏
@@billh.5360 exactly. Lazy writing.
13:44 I like her western skirt 🙂
40:40 some of them look as somber as a funeral, or some other uncomfortable scenario.
The father is a selfish disgrace....
He was a caring father and thus wanted to provide a good life for his children and this is the only way he knew how. In reality it was the daughter that was selfish and lazy for not being willing to do what needed to be done to make a better life for their family. But by all means, blame the man. The man always gets the blame.
I don’t care about her
Oh , hw i hate such people 😠😠😠😠 👍👌😘🥰😍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

michael landon was such a bad actor....
So overrated. He was a real A hole in real life‼️
Says who.? No wonder he made so many shows like little house on the prairie etc……..I don’t think. It was because Mike couldn’t act do you ?
?? Why do you think so?
