I've watched season one of "Bonanza" several times, and for me, these are the three moments that really stand out.
#3: "A Rose For Lotta" (Episode 1, 1959)
#2: "A Rose For Lotta" (Episode 1, 1959)
#1: "Enter Mark Twain" (Episode 5, 1959)
I neither own nor claim any rights to this material. Just having some fun with it. Thanks for watching! - Zábava
Amazing! My favourite memory as a child was that Bonanza was always on past my bedtime - and my Dad always let me stay up to watch it 😁👍 I still love Bonanza (and Westerns) to this day
Sunday night, 9PM!
I can relate..Sunday's at 10pm after Bonanza was the only night my sister and I could stay up. We went to bed pretending to ride a horse and be our favouite Cartwrights. I was Adam, my sister was Hoss ( she was a chunky kid), my mom was Little Joe and of course my dad was Ben
When I was growing up, back in the late '80s, one of the local stations ran reruns of old shows after the 10:00 news. It was usually one episode of the original Star Trek, followed by back-to-back episodes of Bonanza. I would wait until my mom was asleep and sneak down to watch them all. Fell in love with this kind of storytelling. So many good memories.
Pretty sure she caught on to what I was doing pretty early on, but if you're a single mom, isn't having your teenage son staying up to watch that kind of TV better than a lot of other things he could be up to?
BTW -- Don't worry; I turned out OK!
TV was cool once
Now all action films and corona
Or twice. Rifleman was just as good.
Before that dummy trump
@@bekabeka71 what?
You said it . They were actually getting rough . Lol , it was great 👍
The seasons when Adam was still with the family are my favorites. Together they were an unbeatable force.
I hear you, Oliver! It was a different show after Adam left.
Mine also, and I wasn't a big Bonanza fan. My grandfather was.
Love how Hoss throws grown men around like ragdolls!
I have a friend it was an old cowboy and suffering from Alzheimer’s on his good days he says he remembers bonanza but on his bad days it’s a whole new exciting show I’m so glad your TV show brings him comfort
I got a flair for women everywhere Bonanza
He'll forget the "comfort" in 5 minutes, so don't waste your time. Just change his diaper.
@@chrisegnatz3668 You mean a flair for prostitutes.
That wasn't nice! 😡
Watchin' Hoss make peace between Adam & Little-Joe is worth the watch ... Thanks for sharing ... :)
The Blockers were our friends & neighbors in the 1960's 3 doors down. Dan was a GREAT guy...
Everything I've ever heard is that the Blockers were great folk. I'm glad to hear another bit of truth to that effect.
I was born 1970 and Bonanza is the first show running on german TV I could remember. How could I not leave a thumps up?
And everyone needs a Hoss in his family with hands as big the he could put out wildfires with ease :D
Even in my little country Austria 🇦🇹 we loved Bonanza and as Boys we played Cowboys and red Indians. In school we always spoke about it. Many Greetings from Linz-Austria🇦🇹🏔⛷🛶🥨🍺😎👍🐺 Europe!
Greetings, er, uh, I mean Howdy! from Texas 🤠. Same here.
cowboys and red indians ? racism is a thing in austria, what a ..er... shock
@@VINvIN344 Grow TF up, will ya ??? I am part NA (Native American) and I don't see a problem with it, as there was nothing racist about it. All famous civilizations conquered someone else, and we celebrate them, even though tragedies were always involved. Why should America be any different ???
NAs migrated to this country too ... a little father back but it happened. It's easy to judge history from afar ... when you didn't live it. I played those games too. It was fun, and a fun time to be alive. Let's stop calling everything racist, shall we ???
@@VINvIN344
You iust had to say it didn't you? You poor, perpetually offended, delicate little twit.
@@wutntarnation I like that !!! That kind of says it all ??? Yeah, and I've thought about that stupid comment for a while, but then forgot about it. Now, I remember, WHY he said "red Indians" ... was to differentiate between us NAs and people from India. There certainly is no shortage of ignorance in this country, hmm ??? "God Bless 'em (the best cut) !!!"
I watch this show every day during lunch hour.
60+ years of nostalgia. Thank you.
These were the best episodes of Bonanza..loved the original cast and theme song.
Absolutely, never the same without Adam he was so part of the family. More effort should have been made by the producers to keep him even if he appeared less.
The fighting scene between the brothers was hilarious. 😂
The cleanest western I've ever seen
Literally. I always considered the sterile "cleanliness" (not a speck of dirt in sight unless they want it for effect) of the scenes to be one of the drawbacks of this show. Otherwise, I really like the writing and acting.
@@bobpourri9647 Whine about this, whine about that.
@@johnnylightning203 Just analysis: The Bonanza sets are - for the most part- unrealistically clean, which for me impacts the illusion of reality I enjoy in TV and film.
@@bobpourri9647 The cleanliness probably wasn't too noticeable on TV sets in 1959 given that very few TV sets could show color at the time. Bonanza itself was one of the first shows to be filmed and broadcast in color because RCA which owned NBC at the time wanted to push sales of color televisions to the public.
"You gonna die for sayin'that to me ,Old Man "...cool scene indeed ....Bonanza remains the greatest western tv show ever
You’ll never see television at this level of greatness ever again.
I have been very impressed by the 4 Seasons of SEAL Team that I have watched all the episodes of.
Between 2004 and 2011, I spent a bit more than 5 years total, in theater (Middle East/Afghanistan), as part of a 28 year career.
From scenes in combat, training, physical therapy, parachuting (including HALO and HAHO), even scenes at the VA, and in CONUS it is Extremely well done, and remarkably accurate. They portray some controversial elements, including combat against the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Quods forces, Russian mercenaries, and other situations. Several things they depicted, similar incidents occurred After they had filmed an episode.
I strongly suspect I know at least one of the advisors for the series.
Great scene selections, Bonanza was in a class by itself. There were many excellent Westerns on TV, this one is exceptional.
EXCELENTE, LOS AMO Y EXTRAÑO. Q GUAPOS ERAN.
Adam and Little Joe dissing each other's dead mama.
That's cold y'all!
Leading up to the Civil War - Adam was a Yankee, Joseph's mother was southern. But they worked it out - decided family was more important than politics. Wish the rest of the nation had figured that out!
My grandfather grew up on a farm in the 1890s; I think he loved this show just to see the horses and wagons!
Everybody is a badass intil Hoss shows up on scene.
No doubt! the first season is the "real" Cartwrights, after that they emasculated them and Ben became Confucius, they all had to act like Eunuchs
I liked the pilot and season 1 best too. They were at war with the townspeople, timber companies, railroad and miners. Then they got retooled as wise, dependable town fathers.
My favorite Hoss episode snc scene though was the girl he pined for that married a flashy city man instead. He ruined her, abandoned her. Hoss came to find her, and she died giving birth. The man showed up that night to extort money from Hoss if Hoss was going to take the baby home to the dead woman's father.
He pulled a gun. Hoss just walked over and nailed him with a downward fist like squashing a roach. Great scene.
@@STho205 They had a few historical people who visited Virginia City in season 1 also I think the pilot episode is the best
No, Adam was the gunfighter. One shot, one kill.
@@formwiz7096 Yes, and Hoss was the one punch, one k.o.
I have always loved this show. Especially with all 3 brothers on screen.
I love ML fencing! He had style and swag..and that fight between Joe and Adam..one the best..ML loved to leap into a fight..Hoss's backhand slap to Adam's head..a real bell ringer..lol..they were the baddest guys in western tv!
Did not grow up watching bonanza because I was born in the 80’s, but found it later in life!!! I really enjoy the show!!! I only have seasons 1-7. Wish I could complete my collection. Hoss and Adam were my favorite. Didn’t care too much about the womanizer, but he was an important character.
During WWII Lorne Greene was known in Canada as The Voice of Doom. This was because he worked as a radio announcer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and during the early years of the war he had only bad news to report.
I loved when Joe gave Hoss his best punch and Hoss ignored it.

One of my favorite westerns,I liked that show so much, my wife and I went to see the ponderosa movie set.One of the best trips we ever took.
How fun!!
When that judge threatens the Cartwrights Hoss simply says "You sit down!" and he folds like a metal chair.
Bonanza was one of my favorites!
Thank you.
I love how little joe lands in a chair and just sits there
... and then that wicked smile appeared! 👍👍
Ahhhhhh, THE GOOD OLD DAYS!
Ah yes. Polio and diphtheria were great
@@zapkvr , unlike today we never even locked our doors at night. No need to as people respected and knew all their neighbors.
@@zapkvr I bet hardening of the arteries and type 2 diabetes, fatty liver (non-alcoholic variety...really on the rise last 20 years) were unheard of, as well as the myriad of problems arising from obesity. X-ray machines and a full understanding of germs would be nice, I admit.
@@zapkvr No AIDS/HIV back then.
Bonanza is my favorite western. I always compared the Cartwrights to my family. Dad was Ben, I was the oldest brother Adam, younger brother was Hoss, (we called him Chief) the biggest and strongest. Baby brother was Little Joe the hot headed Romeo. Mom was in the kitchen like Hop Sing.
Yes, Sunday night. My Dad's favorite.
The only time we might be allowed to eat in the living room, we got the floor and they used the "T.V. trays". Even better when we got the color T.V.. All three channels.
Three channels. Pure extravagance, I tells ya!
@@BuriedFlame It was then! lol
we had 5 channels with our rabbit ears....the normal 3 and channel 17
and 11 wpxi NY...i grew up in Levittown outside Philly, what a town to grow up in in the 60's, 70's and 80's. people looked out for each other. some of my friends parents treated me like one of their own kids. i wish we could go back to that time because right now, people have lost their damn minds and morals
@@BuriedFlame we had color come in during "The Ted Mack show" in 65 i think. i was a child and i loved the peacock
@@joeclayton2121 You are so right and it doesn't look like they'll ever experience even a little bit of what it was like to live then. Even sadder, I'm not sure if they even care to.
It was a fun show. I never got Ben treating these 30-something year-old men like teens, but Hoss was the best. I love the one where he fights the traveling champion.
Little Joe was supposed to be about 19-21 years old.
I always got a sick feeling when they played the closing music because I had school the next day.
Sunday nights at 9pm on NBC.
I wasn't allowed to stay up past 9 p.m., 'cause school the next day, so never got to watch it when a kid.
So very very true, and here I thought I was the only one that dreaded the closing music cause it meant bedtime and the next morning SCHOOL!!
@@veramae4098 i used to sit at the top of the stairs and watch when i was supposed to be in bed. that just brought back a flood of memories.
@@thomasbealy533 I did the exact same thing Thomas but mine was laying in the hall outside the living room. Great to know I am not alone.
Moved to Reno in '93 just to be close to the Ponderosa!! My Dad & I used to watch this every week without fail! He loved all the westerns. Cheyanne. Maverick, Sugar Foot, Bronco Lane, Wanted Dead or alive, Rawhide to name a few.
All my favorites too! 👍👍
With today's satellite tv, cable, high speed internet tv, countless channels and I always find myself watching Bonanza, leave it to beaver, the rifleman and Hazel
I am glad Hoss factored prominently in these. He was my favorite.
No person on Earth cares who your favorite is. We are not your mother and you have zero importance to us.
@@mikemondano3624 easy there "Francis"
Miss those nights with the family sitting in front of the TV watching a new episode from the cart Wright family. A long time ago.
Indeed, a long long time ago....
Enjoy now, and find joy from the past. Aroha from New Zealand.
Yep. Saturday nights it was Gunsmoke (until late 1967 when they moved it to Mondays) and Sunday nights it was Bonanza. A lot of memories.
Cartwright.
Boy, Howdy, don't you know it !?!?!?
Thems was the days of good film production and meaningful story lines.
Bonanza was my favorite weekly series, every Sunday nite around 7, if I recall.
I was allowed to stay up late on a school nite to watch it because it was good stuff.
I miss the old westerns.
Best western series ever produced; thanks for the clips !!!!
I first saw Bonanza in 1964 for the first time on a color TV set. I was 11 and in 6th grade.
We saw it in black and white in the UK untill we had colour tvs in the late 1960s Earley 1970s.. We were always a few years behind you Americans. But a great show I grew up watching westerns.
Definitely one of my favorite westerns. This is exactly what the world needs now. A western like this to show this generation what real hard work is like on a ranch.
Except they are never working.
Bonanza was , and is the BEST show that ever existed. The Cartwrights were so "kool", all ways able to do the right things in life. All ways a good " life's lesson" we can still relate to today.
Loren Greene said he would not be on the show if it didn't show a strong father figure who was moral.
@@ironwolfgaming9632 Probably couldn't get a job today. Only male bashing allowed these days.
"The BEST" only till Adam moved out....
The Rifleman was also a good family show. It taught good values but I wish the Rifleman didn't have to solve so many problems by killing someone.
Wrong. Gunsmoke is.
Hoss was definitely the coolest Cartwright. I was lucky enough to know the Dortorts, who created and wrote some of the Bonanza episodes. Real nice, down to earth people, always happy to answer my stupid questions about the show.
Holy shit. that is really cool
Here in Norway, Bonanza has been running on tv2 every saturday to sunday at 11:00 ever since I was a very young boy
To me, bonanza feels so old time, cause it really was. Even back in the 80's
I find it hard to belive those creators are still around, and yet here you are :-)
Loved Hoss! My favorite character on the show. Dan Blocker was far from being the all brawn little brain he portrayed. Graduate of Sol Ross, and was a teacher before getting into acting.
I never knew that. I loved that show when I was a kid in the 1960s.
@@wattyler9806 he had a master's degree. he really had the best acting range of all of them. but Adam had a great singing voice. (utube)
I don't see him being portrayed that way in the show. Yes, Adam was portrayed as an engineer and charismatic. Little Joe was straight up the lady's man, but outside of that, he was the most shallow of the brothers, Dan Blockers character definitely was more than kissing the pretty girls then finding a way to not make it work so the next episode he could kiss the pretty girl...
Sul Ross.
@@JDMatthias
Yeah really. Eric "Hoss" Cartwright wasn't portrayed as a hugely intelligent man, but neither was he a simpleton good for nothing other than heavy lifting.
What an idiotic OP. -smh
When Hoss was main the character in any episode I enjoyed it more.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane.. Much obliged
I loved that backhand to the head LOL thanks for the laugh.
BONANZA IS STILL MY FAVORITE WESTERN. BIG VALLEY IS UP THERE WITH BONANZA.
I like Cheyenne.
Mine too..couldn't agree more. They are legends of the TV screen and will never be forgotten. Linda Evans portrayal of Audra Barkley was the epitome of the perfect woman to me. Beauty..brains...loyalty...family virtues and tomboyish not afraid to get dirty and mix it up. Nobody could hold a candle to her.
The Rifleman, and Have Gun - Will Travel
I got into Westerns because of John Wayne. After watching this 5min video I'm thinking of buying the Bonanza boxset, looks like a well made show.
Your money will be well spent. Every penny of it is worth it. Watching this show is like an adventure for me.
I think I just discovered the
" Fountain of Youth ", quite by accident !
As watching these old clip's took me right back to being a kid again !
Where everything was different !
Somehow better !
I finally found something decent about the internet !
Excellent !! Loved watching my favourite for ever guys !! Great job ! Thank you
That first season they were hard assed, tough as nails and didn't take any bullshit from anyone. After the first season the writers toned the characters down a lot. It would have been interesting to have been in on the conversations at the studio/producer meetings.
Show writers do tend to do that. Water their characters down somewhat. Like on Big Valley, Audra was a younger version of her mother Victoria Barkley but over time she was watered down to be weak and needing to be saved always.
I hear that, first season they almost kill trespassers after that you come on property the give you some.
@@freakindawgen I remember that.
@@LBF522 Linda Evans stunk.
It'd have been better for me if they'd left it like the first season. being born in '62, I hadn't seen season 1 until about 15 years ago and was amazed. Some of ben was over the top, esp in first two episodes but, in hindsight, I think it made more sense for them to be more that way than goody two shoes. They even got the firearms right the first season!
I loved the episode when Hop Sing saved the Ponderosa when Ben was overextended in debt and Hop Sing had saved every cent of his pay.
I like the episode where Hop Sing was so busy in the kitchen without a break that he had an accident in his pants.
The setup was borrowed from the novel "East of Eden". The Chinese manservant always had money. He was the only thing that kept Trask out of the poorhouse after financial blunders.
Nowadays, Hop Sing would forward the information on the foreclosure of the Ranch to Chinese Nationals and take it over...
@@MartyInLa it never happened.
@@Invictus13666 Lol, got it, thanks.
I was 14 in 1959. I loved TV back then. Not now.
Just such a GREAT Show!
A ton of memories on the 'Ponderosa'.
Thanks.👍🐎
Everyman wants his own Ponderosa!
yup
Yup twice. McIntyre
12 notches....LOL, that's like one season for the Cartwrights...
That gunslinger actor looked too geeky to be a gunslinger.
That's how he lulled his victims into complacency!
With that many notches would he even have a gun left?
Surprised they all didn't shoot him. He said one was as good as the other.
Wish he had the dialog with the fellow after that. The one that said the gun slinger would do all of his talking. Ok, he's dead. Now what.
little joe had 163 confirmed kills by the time the show ended
The early years were the best, thanks
Thank you - from all the fans of Bonanza!
2 shows my Dad never missed when I was kid; Bonanza on Sunday night and Gunsmoke on Monday night.
Bonanza and gunsmoke were the best westerns on television. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I remember taking Greek in seminary, one of the words sounded like "Hoss" and the teacher mentioned Bonanza. I was one of the few that actually understood what he was talking about.
Greek is all Bonanza to me.
Hoss makes peace in the Cartwright house by cracking both skulls.... 😎
Excellent video! Thanks for these classic scenes from one of the greatest television series of all time! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Watched it multiple times!!
I’ve know a couple big ole farm boys like Hos and the one thing you never want to do is make them angry lol.
You bet Roy boy.....them big ‘ol backwoods types will poke ya, then poke ya again if ya get my meaning!

Thank you. I was a child when this was popular. Loved it!
Before Bonanza morphed into a soap opera.👍
1:40 the look of love. Those eyes.
when death finally comes , you will look with fondness into the eyes of eternity
Hard to believe this Series is now 64 Years old.
I remember watching Bonanza every sunday, And mark twain was the best of that first season
Lorne Greene had the most beautiful horse I've seen in my life.
COLORED TV was just new!!
Gunsmoke and Bonanza used that same horse for Ben and Matt Dillon
@@robinqm nope. Arness was 6 inches taller than Greene. No way could they share mounts.
1:37 Look at that guy just casually sitting the background with his legs crossed whilst he is in the line of fire.
I know! I was thinking the same thing. Lucky for him Adam was a good shot! 😂
I never knew that Adam was such a gun slinger…i figured lil’ Joe was the one with the fast hands! I stand corrected.
@@kingslaphappy1533 As a side note here, "Adam" was pretty much bald and wore a toupee.
That guy must have had supreme confidence in Adam's marksmanship.
@@im1who84u 20 years later, yes. But in '59, pretty just thinning hair on top.
I had a smile on my face after this man thanks.
Lorne Green - greatest Indigenous Canadian actor of all time.
I remember my old dad called Hoss “big horse” 😂😂. Bonanza was one of those shows that the whole family could, and did, watch. What shows can you watch as a whole family nowadays?
Uh....reruns of Bonanza, on CZcams?
Gunsmoke. Matt Dillon was awesome!
The test pattern?

I Hated when Pernell Roberts left the Show, it was the Perfect 3 Western Brothers, The Gunfighter, The Gentle Giant and The Troublesome Little Brother, It was the Perfect Western Show!
I totally agree with you. The show just became so much weaker without him.
Absolutely right. He was my favorite character - cool, serious, dignified and a bit aloof. I wanted to be like him.

@@russellking9762 Yessir, And Don't forget The Rifleman!
@@russellking9762 So true! And Hollywood was less woke, so the values were more traditional.
Never mess with Ben's sons unless you got a damn death wish.
Shit don't mess with Hoss 😂
Thank you for sharing this with me.
When I was growing up, my family mirrored the Cartwrights.
Dad was the wise, caring father of three sons.
My older brother Ken was Adam, the oldest, most educated, and the smartest.
I was Hoss, the biggest, strongest, and most sentimental.
My younger brother Tim was Little Joe, the hothead, the ladies' man.
And Mom was Hop Sing, the cook. But she never really appreciated this!
I know what you mean. My Dad was Ben, I was Adam the oldest son , my younger brother was the biggest and strongest. We called him Chief not Hoss. Baby brother was the lady killer, like Little Joe.
How sweet! If you can relate to these three, you got a great family…
You know you punched a dude good when he flies over stuff and lands in a sitting position in a chair.
One of THE finest-crafted TV shows ever
These may not be my favorite three but I like yours too! Awesome scenes. Great show. Bonanza was (still is) the best.
Some of the best episodes was with Hoss and Little Joe. The episode of the leprechaun was hilarious.
I have seen polls over the years that "Hoss and the Leprechauns" was always voted peoples' favorite episode. I would add that I love "The Flapjack Contest" as another favorite.
Favorite episode.. Yoohoo...😆🤣
Hayburner and the ones with the dog are my favorite. Laughed my A off.
Nope! The most hilarious episode was "A Knight to Remember"!
I always noticed the furniture in the Ponderossa was built pretty stout (the house we lived in my dad told us we could kill each other at long at we didn't hurt the furniture!) I would bet that Ben had it built that way to deal with those three boys!
It was that lousy good craftsmanship
Ya - I would fight with my brother too - when stuff would get broken she would say, "this is why we can't have nice things!"
The good old days of TV!
4:19: I wouldn't trust that hitching post to hold my horse in a million years.
It could barely hold itself.
For some reason, the music played when they displayed the title of that week's show always got to me.
Loved the artwork.
Pernell Roberts and Lorne Greene were my fav's.
I liked Hoss, Ben and Lil Joe. Adam came across as a freaking racist. Not just in this ep but another involving a Black man who was actually free.
@@woodie62 racism can be found even in old reels of 1959 Bonanza re-runs these days! Hee hee. Pernell Roberts was from Waycross, Georgia, but he somewhat perturbed both Greene and Landon when he decided to march in a civil rights protest somewhere in the south back then. (Though more conservative than the then liberal Roberts, Greene and Landon didn't disagree with his participation in substance so much as just the controversial nature of it all when it first started...might hurt ratings?)
@@woodie62 " a freaking racist"? (Not just a plain ol' "racist"?) What show were you watchin,' LMALG? Or what were you smokin' when you were watchin"?
No, he didn't. After all, his lineage is caucasian, negroid, and native American (Creek tribe). Why shouldn't he match? Many caucasians did!
March!!
Bonanza went all out as very few TV shows were filmed in color in 1959. The vast majority of TV shows didn't see color until 1965 or 1966.
" Happy New Year Hayden Panettiere!! "
Ben: Hoss! Get in there and stop this, it's a disgrace!
Hoss: Aw, pop...they're just lettin' off a little steam, that's all.
Ben: (GLARE)
Hoss: Uh...I'll make 'em stop!
I always did like and watch that show. It changed a little when Adam left. But it was still real good.
Loved that show on Sunday nights!
Thanks for posting this. I guess I'll be streaming this show this weekend.
Yeah , taking a swing at Hoss ain't a good idea
Back in the 50s when we bought our first color TV, Bonanza was the first show that we watched. Amazing!!
Premiering September 12, 1959, on NBC, Bonanza was television's first full hour western series filmed in color.
@@kenwittlief255 Television's first full-hour series with continuing characters. Don't even have to quality it as the first hour Western!
Thanks for posting , really enjoyable.
Those overstuffed stunt chairs sure earned their paycheck in this one.
