July 17, 2025Jul 17 comment_1022047 I'm losing my mind... In what episode does Joe walk in on Hoss building a house of cards and (little devil!) does he deliberately breathe hard enough to knock it down?? Report

Of my three older brothers (who actually behave a lot like these three!!), Jerry (6'4", a gentle artist and with a temper kept on a very low simmer until someone pi$$ed him off!) would have knocked him on his butt. LMAO. Report
July 17, 2025Jul 17 comment_1022066 You mean this moment? Definitely "Escape to the Ponderosa." And I'm pretty sure Hoss wanted to pop Joe one, if Ben hadn't come in before he could catch him. He tried, though! Report
July 17, 2025Jul 17 comment_1022071 I laugh so hard when Hoss finally caught Joe cornered behind Ben's desk and just held him there very tightly while Ben talked. Report

July 20, 2025Jul 20 comment_1022120 Here's one where Joe's got his feet up on his desk - though at least it's in his own room, and considering Joe's romancing Tirza this episode, Ben has bigger things to worry about! The Dark Star Report

July 20, 2025Jul 20 comment_1022128 I hadn't seen this one as I don't watch Tirza anymore. Great catch. Nice desk alcove. Hmm, could that be the peculiar window on the front of the house? Report

This one falls into the “entertaining but doesn’t actually hold together” category for me. Very probably rock bottom for Joe’s romantic interests. I have a theory that he spent Season One trying to rebel by romancing women his father wouldn’t approve of…then hit a crisis with Tirza when even she couldn’t get an objection out of Ben, so he spends Season Two chasing the perfectly appropriate daughters of family friends.

You make a great point about season one. I will watch that season differently in the future. I love all the insight I gain from talking here with folks! Report

July 21, 2025Jul 21 comment_1022149 @Tavia42 An excellent theory for Joe's romantic romps in Season 1 and 2. Anything to drive Pa to distraction and add a few more gray hairs. Report
