Episode Discussions

Possibly a long shot … but, can anyone think of an episode where they got a good shot of Hop Sing’s bedroom door? (Thinking of a pic for if I lengthen and post my Pinecone…)

For the next seven days (from October 25 through October 31, let's share our favorite Joe moments when he's: laughing crying kissing fighting biting his lip rolling his eyes bleeding/hurt receiving comfort or giving it to another Post a screencap and tell us why that moment has become a favorite.

Any idea what Joe's eating? They look like sandwiches. Ponderosa Matador

We all have our favorite lines and or scenes. Either by one of the Cartwrights, their neighbors, their friends, the villains. Which one is yours? Mine is from Prime Of Life: The very last line when Barney says "Welcome home, Ben." When Adam, Hoss, and Joe failed to get their pa out off his backside and to stop blaming himself for the death of his foreman, Barney knew how to get Ben back on his feet and motivated, again. I don't know how many of you picked up on this, but Ben Cartwright and Barney Fuller are, in a way, friends. You can sense and see it in the opening scene, when they greet each other. You can hear and see t…

These three "villains" sort of remind me of The Three Stooges. Any Friend Of Walter's

Tomorrow I plan on binge watching season 1 episodes 1-5. Haven't been able to watch them at all this week. With the exception of the westerns, on MeTV, there's nothing good on any of the six channels that we get. Today, it's Enter Mark Twain.

If any of you were wondering about the song that Miss Lotta Crabtree/Yvonne De Carlo sings, I found the lyrics. https://genius.com/Peggy-seeger-all-of-her-answers-were-no-lyrics

Monday is the final Bonanza episode, The Hunter, on MeTV Tuesday is the first episode, A Rose For Lotta

Was it ever mentioned in any of the episodes if Joe was allowed to quit school when he turned 16? If so, which one?

In the episode Thanks for Everything Friend I always thought it was peculiar how Adam wrapped himself in the blanket while waiting for his clothes to dry after Tom rescued him from drowning in the river. Normally he was not reluctant to be bare chested and often was. Any thoughts?

Tuesday May 14 -- Pernell's funniest moments. Post a screen cap of any scene which showcases Adam lighter side ... but not before May 14!

Thursday, May 16 -- Adam courting. Post a screen cap of any scene in which Adam woos a damsel ... but not before May 16!

Monday, May 13 -- Adam as a parental figure. Post a screen cap from any episode in which Adam interacts with a child ... but not before May 13!

Wednesday, May 15 -- Pernell as the advisor. Post a screen cap of any scene in which Adam counsels/advises a brother ... but not before May 15!

During the week May 12 - May 18 we will ask you to post screencaps of your favorite scenes from episode(s) that follow the day's theme. May 12 -- Since it is Mother's Day in the US, the episode is "Marie, My Love." A new theme will be announced each day of the week.

A staple of the series was the visitations of Ben's friends from his past turning up on the Ponderosa. Who was your favorite?

Free Pik In this thread, discuss Season 3, Episode 11's "The Day of the Dragon": What you liked, didn't like, thoughts on the story, acting, guest stars, etc. Feel free to post screen caps from the episode.

I'm trying to find a particular episode, so hopefully someone can identify its title. It's where Little Joe's friend comes to the Ponderosa, and the friend persuades Little Joe into joining him. So Little Joe leaves the Ponderosa. Can anyone identify the title for me?

Thanks to everyone who responded. All of the info was provided to Andy Klyde who was guest on a recent podcast/YouTube video. YouTube: https://youtu.be/sajPcU4-MeM Podcast direct link: https://www.podbean.com/ep/pb-78nc8-151cbe4 Enjoy!!

You're talking with a relative newbie to the world of Bonanza. What episodes would you recommend they see for them to understand the show, the characters, and the family dynamic both internal (within the family) and external (with the townsfolk)? Answers needed by midnight PST December 3.

We've seen a noose around Ben's and Adam's neck, but I don't remember any episodes where a noose was placed around Hoss' and Joe's necks. I know they were a couple episodes where they were charged with murder, but I don't remember a noose being put on them. In The Gamble, Joe prevented his pa and brothers from being wrongfully hung, but no noose was placed around their necks.

There are times when I wonder if Lorne, Pernell, Dan, and Mike actually fell asleep whenever Ben, Adam, Hoss, or Joe was supposed to be unconscious or sleeping. Especially when they had to show up for early morning or late night shoots.

Death at Dawn Plot: Sam Bryant and his men terrorize Virginia City. It's up to the brothers to see justice is served, even after Ben has been kidnapped and threatened to be hung if Farmer Perkin's sentence is carried out. First Aired: 9//10/1960 Director: Charles F. Haas Writers: David Dortort (creator), Laurence E. Mascott You've watched the episode . What are your thoughts? Would you have changed anything? What are your feelings for this episode? Do you have any behind the scene tidbits to share? What were your favorite / least favorite scene(s) from this episode? PS: When commenting, please be respectful of …

I don't know how many of you know that the Cartwrights made a Christmas album. I'm going to order it through Wal Mart. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7E1gVZZa99g

Every time I watch The Toy Soldier, I get to wondering if Dan and Mike actually did drop Pernell in the trough. It would've been too tempting for them not try. And we all know that hijinks do occur when filming a movie or TV show.
