I, too, would have liked to have seen Tom Burns, the man impersonating Adam. But I do like this episode. The opening scene, with Joe and Hoss in the ranch yard, is terrific. Shows the age difference between Joe and Hoss, as Joe addresses the older man as Mister whatever his name was, but Hoss calls ...

I love Hoss' enthusiasm for the whole concept of flying. He is really keen to give it a go. And Joe, of course, with his well documented fear of heights, is adamant about not going up in it. Hoss plays a really cruel prank on little brother by sending him up in the balloon, so deserves the punch Joe...

I think that when any of the Cartwright boys were in love, reason flew out of the window. Hoss, in this episode, battering Adam, his best friend, as well as his brother, without really giving Adam the chance to explain (although I do think Adam enjoyed that kiss just a bit more than he tried to pret...

Loved it when I actually met Greg Walcott (lovely man) and he sang this for us. Adam's over the top oerformance at the end, when he confronts the preacher, is great to watch. He sounds as nutty as the preacher LOL And Joe and Hoss at the beginning, when they are woken up by Danny's singing, is so sw...

The original plan seemed to be to have the Cartwright family as an island fighting the whole world and that included Virginia City. They were the high and mighty Cartwrights who everyone disliked and it was considered unsafe for them to even venture into town, singly. And Ben appeared to have raised...

The Friendship is one of my favourite episodes. Very sad that this young man had been held in prison for so long, as he wasn't really bad, just a victim of circumstances. Loved the way he and Joe began to be pals and when the episode ends I like to think that friendship blossomed while Danny worked ...

I'm not really new around here, as I first joined in 2009, but I haven't been posting hardly at all in that time. So, I'm making an early New Year's resolution to post more often, in 2013 This is a great place to hang out and talk about the best show EVER made, without exception Merry Christmas to ...

Hi mightymight, nice to meet you :howdy2 I first watched Bonanza when I was a little girl, with my father, too Thought it was a great show then, and fifty years later, I still feel the same about it This is a great place to hang out and talk about our favourite guys Hope to see you around Little Joe...

Hi Ponderosawildcat, nice to meet you I am sure you will soon make plenty of friends here. Just like Ben, we welcome everyone who comes knocking at the door As you can surely guess by my sign off, I am a Joe gal, but I love the whole family and the stories I write mostly contain all four Cartwrights...

Hello Everyone. I am thrilled to join Bonanza Boomers. I live 2 hrs drive north of Toronto, Canada. Considering I am a boomer at age 61, my teenage years were spent watching Little Joe and every Bonanza episode from the beginning of Season 2. I never missed one episode after The Gift and wrote a li...
