Hi, my name is Lori and I live in Canada. Northern British Columbia to be exact. I am a newby when it comes to Bonanza as my first time seeing it was about 6 months ago. I am a Adam/Pernell Roberts fan, but I love all the Cartwrights. I will admit I have only seen the first 6 seasons. I am going to try watching the rest.

Welcome to BonanzaBrand @McHopper.  We have a great bunch of Bonanza fans at this site.  Brand also houses an extensive Fanfiction Library  for your reading pleasure.  You can use the same username and password at both sites, they are two different programs so separate logins are required.

 

Check out the announcement in the announcement banner, the final seasons are coming out on DVD later this year.

Hi, McHopper! :welcome:  Always happy to hear that a new person has discovered the joys of Bonanza! 

 

I'll reiterate what BluewindFarm mentioned above about the fanfiction library here. When I was brand new to online Bonanza sites, it was several months before I looked into the fanfic libraries. This is going to sound pretty silly, but I honestly had no idea what fan fiction was. So I asked someone what the fan fiction library was, and when they told me it was stories written by fans about Bonanza, I still wasn't interested, because I thought, "Oh, gosh, that has to be awful." (Not only was I a newbie, I was a clueless newbie.) A couple more months went by, and finally, on a slow afternoon, I tiptoed in to see what the fuss was about. Oh, wow, what a discovery! I found writers there that could hold their own against writers selling novels. In those early days I devoured every story that was posted. It was such a fun way to "see" new Bonanza episodes, or to delve deeper into actual televised episodes. 

 

There are hundreds of other entertainments here, of course, but I always like to tell people about the fan fiction so they don't miss out like I almost did, lol.

I also accidentally stumbled across the fanfiction stories here a few months ago. I didn't know that something like ff Ssories even existed and was pleasantly surprised by it. There is something for every taste!
