Reviews:
"Main characters: Helen Layton
Main Bonanza Character: Hoss
Missing characters: None
Julie Adams...I cannot stand her characters! I remember her in "Nora" when she played on The Rifleman and couldn't stand her for what she did. Now she gets poor Hoss believing her words!
Hoss is a sweetie. He is so willing to do for others and love someone that it didn't take much for her to get him right where she wanted him.
This episode starts out comical between Hoss and Little Joe, and then soon turns serious when Hoss helps a widow in distress. Secretly, she has another problem that puts a wedge between Hoss and his family.
The episode was good, but I didn't like Julie Adams' character!" Written by mitchrmp on IMDb.com
"This episode finds Dan Blocker and Michael Landon traveling to meet the widow of an old Ben Cartwright friend. Expecting a senior citizen they are happy to find Julie Adams a beautiful 30 something. Hoss is in love.
But Adams is not all she seems and the hints are there, but Dan Blocker is just too blind to see it. And Lorne Greene doesn't want to hurt his middle son.
Adams is the worst kind of gold digger one with a gambling problem and the insatiable need for money that comes withit.
This one is Dan Blocker's episode. This story shows what a gentle giant Hoss Cartwright was and why he was such a beloved character. You hate Adams all the more.
This one is especially for Dan Blocker's fans." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com

She got off lucky. Every other woman that any Cartwright falls in love with ends up dead!
lol.. that ain't no lie
lol no. The most common way to get rid of them is that something bad happens and the woman can't stay in that area because it will remind her too much of what happened. If I had a nickel for every time one of them said that.
Would sure love to see this one dead as well! This was the worst
No they don't most of them just leave Adam had 3 that I remember only 1 died in that was the episode Sisters the next one left him to save his life and Laura married his cousin I don't know about Hoss and Jo as I only watch Adam's parts more then their parts
Dear @@linsqopiring6816
Exactly!
Best regards luck and health.
This for me is one of most memorable episodes of the whole series. Hoss getting as far as he did with a girl was extremely rare, and seeing how generous and forgiving he was was I think an insight into how lonely and desperate his character was quietly going a long in life and Joe and Adam always being the ones who had success with the ladies.
But the most memorable part had nothing to do with the plot. It was that line where she says to Hoss "Does Ponderosa look like this"? And Hoss says "We've been riding through the Ponderosa for the last two days". Lol that's a big spread.
Also the way he explained how they Cartwrights thought about the Ponderosa was really beautiful.
There's only two outcomes in this series.
1. She turns out to be a total scoundrel.
2. She's a keeper, but dies.
@@charlesvan13 I think the most common is something bad happens and she has to leave because staying will remind her of it.
She wasn't in love with Hoss she was using him
@@natvan29 That's right.
Those fancy big buildings were something back then. These Westerns have it all. City, Country, good storylines. Always good endings.
Don't know if this city looked like how they made it look at the beginning of this episode. There wasn't much here in 1861.
I just love this series ♥️ I'm under 30 years old and I'm from Germany and happened to see Bonanza on TV in August 2018. I was immediately enchanted by this series and i am so happy, that so many other people love it too. That keeps "Bonanza" alive. "The Courtship" was one of the first episodes I saw.
Thanks for uploading ☺️🌹
It was one of my first too, I'm relatively young as well (being 31). Nice to find another young fan
@@NightridewithNikki 30 here and I’ve been watching Bonanza reruns since I was 9 years old! So glad they’re still available.
Ich bin 61 und habe die Serie als Kind regelmäßig geschaut. Jetzt schau ich sie wieder und schwelge in Nostalgie😂 Es gibt emotionale Zeitreisen. Was war das doch auch eine sorglose Zeit als Kind.
I'm 28 and I love this show. It's a comfort show along with rawhide (another western series), the waltons, and I love lucy 😊 I love seeing other young people enjoying these classic shows along with me
Hoss’s heart ♥️ is as big as his horse
Poor Hoss!!! Bless his heart he keeps trying and he keeps getting screwed!
They all get screwed over chick's. Lol
The problem of addiction is the underlying theme of this episode. And Hoss' romance and pending marriage is the conflict. The widowed woman tells one-side of the story that benefits her, and sucks Hoss into her web. Adam who was off in San Francisco, come back and gives the other side. Here again, we can fast forward to our time and see that negative addictions tend to destroy relationships, unless harnessed and halted. Hoss is in love with the widow and won't here of her negative side. Adam and Little Joe cook up a means to show Hoss the truth. Hoss is so easy to help anyone, any animal in distress, that it hurts to see him being taken advantage of. Julie Adams' plays her selfish, gold-digging character well. And the Gentle Giant is his lovable self. A Dan Blocker episode.
SHE is not a selfish gold digger...she is addicted to gambling......totally different thing
@@jadezee6316 Her addiction leads her to the negative character traits. As all addictions do because the addiction ends up running and ruining your life, not to mention how the addicted destroy anyone they interact with.
I Agree I like How Adam Tells His Half of the Story
Rather nice summary, mate.
@@user-pd7il3xz5j You hit the nail on the head!! I agree!
If you're going to have a gambling addiction at least be a good player. I never saw her win a single hand. She just sits there and gives away money.
And looks so adorable all the time too. Guess degenerate gamblers dont get there by being any good at cards.
I was thinking the same thing
Pernell Roberts was one good looking man back then!
Good looking and smart.
Oh yes he was ❤
era feo calvo, dientes de caballo, nariz muy abierta boca feo y dientes de caballo . ojos caídos y perfil plano, y de inteligente en la serie.. en la vida real el mas inteligente y mas guapo fue sin duda Michael Landon es decir Joe en la serie fue el único que aprendió a escribir guiones a ser director, productor y un buen actor todo lo hacia bien, lo único que le faltaba era un poco mas de altura. pero eso no me importa ya lo dijo la mujer de Dortort el productor de bonanza que parecía un angel
@@shirleymonroe110345:00 Yeah but Adam & Joe shouldn't take too many more of these...
Really! He was a handsome man.
Great episode. This was not just a story. It happened to me--unlike Hoss, I had to suffer this alone.
38:20 Hoss has such a tender heart.
Hoss is a fish out of water, I know this is true. At one time or another we are all that way
Hoss was the heart of Bonanza. When he died, Bonanza died.
Yep, Hoss had a tender heart. But in this episode he let what he thought was love cloud his judgement. Of course that happens all the time. Which is why we should listen to others when they're trying to warn us about a serious character flaw in someone we think we're in love with.
@@gracealexandre3381 agreed. The last season was odd without him.
45:00 At this moment, his heart wasn't so tender with Adam & Joe.
Ben should have handed the gambling marker over to Hoss and said "Your new fiance spent this... I expect you to pay me back".
Ben didn’t want to break his heart so he quietly paid it!
@@janinecox256 True, but how does that help Hoss in the end?
Adam's subterfuge showed caring about his brother in a more obivious way.
The marker was ripped up!
Sorry but I think it better to hurt Hoss then have the family go in debt over some stupid woman. So I would have given the bill to hoss
@@natvan29 I would have done the same. 5,000 Dollars back then in the 1860s was the equivalent of about 188,000 Dollars today. You don't forget a lesson like that.
At the last bar scene when Hoss hit Little Joe was one of the best stunt works of the series. Imagine today actors doing this. Instead they cut in and change camera angles about every 2 seconds for stunt men to work. These actors were so overlooked for their athletic abilities.
¡
HEARTBREAKIMG to jump into a relationship so damn quickly , that can destroy anybody's life .
Hoss is too gullible. Poor Hoss
They don't get any better than this. It's amazing how Bonanza's still popular even to this day.
Hoss was an angel on Earth. I love Hoss.
45:00
A very short engagement. The Cartwrights certainly know how to pick em. The 5 grand was a lot of money in those days.
It was $20,000. in total.
@@lysmykyta1199 It was only 5K, the last game was a set up, not real. You see him tearing up the IOU.
That actress played a manipulative creep in EVERYTHING I've seen her in.
Actually she did play a great character, the nurse trying to give Rafe Hollister his tetanus shot, on the Andy Griffith Show! 🙂👍
34:00 Adam says "oh yes, I was surprised." 🙂
33:56
What I love about the older day, were the pretty dresses and how good the ladies look in them, now most girls walk almost naked just to want to be seen, or be I a relationship. I love those dresses it a actually showed the difference between a woman and a man. But times change
Damn, hoss fell in love quicker than joe
I like how Adam Tells His Side of the Story
Pernell Roberts who played Adam Cartwright was the best actor on the show. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
You are so right he was the best that's why after he left I stop watching the show I will admit I watched maybe 3 or 4 episodes after he one I watched only cause my favorite actor guest star in it
Especially To All The 'Older' Bonanza Fans. When I was 8, Little Joe was my hero. He fought for justice, quite literally with punch-up and so on, quick on the draw, a gentleman, honourable Son, always willing to help. Little Joe at that time was my Mentor. As an Older Woman Now Hoss is the Persona of an ideal Husband. God Bless The Actors passed and what they gave to so many in values & entertainment 🙏💜✌️✌️
Well said! I named my cat little joe after the youngest Cartwright and Adam is an ideal best friend but Hoss is truly the heart of an ideal husband. I never had a father but if Ben had been mine then I know I'd have done much better in life lol.
I like the older episodes better when Pernell Roberts was in them but while Adam loved the ranch, his father taught him that there is a world outside the Ponderosa and that he should take part of it and he did because he went to college and he traveled but still remembers his roots and he helped his father run the ranch!
Wich episode is that??
Poor Hoss just can't catch a break.
Hoss was a gentle giant with a big heart ❤️. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
No matter if you got a gambling addiction or not. if you're losing your money if you lose your ass you quit playing. And you don't go back. Almost like that Kenny Rogers song years ago The Gambler. I must have missed that one years ago but I can't believe a woman even especially a beautiful woman is going to do something so horrible like that to Hoss Cartwright. And then when the horse finds her addiction she just walks past and leaves him it goes off with another guy. How does a woman like that even live with herself. But like I said with Hoss's actions he never laid a hand on the woman he just walked away and moved on with his life. That's what a real true man is supposed to do. And Hoss Cartwright is definitely a real man. The other sad thing is that you knew something bad was gonna happen. The Cartwright curse as always. She was either gonna die or leave the Cartwright.
Julie Adams---what a cutie! I read somewhere that her mother would always accompany her to her acting assignments just to keep the boys away, back in her early days. No wonder.
I love it when Hoss call's Lil Joe big shorty..!!
I think that Hoss should have apologized to Adam and Little Joe for slugging them in the bar after Hoss saw his fiancee gambling big!!!
Lynette, yes that's true. But I like to think that Hoss apologized to his brothers after they rode off together to work on the ranch.
@@billh.5360 That's probably true.
That's the first time that poor Adam meets the full angry blow of that 280 pound hammer..... . Next time I think will be in "she walks in beauty"... I just wanna get him an ice pack....
@21:00 "to have enough."
Actually, we have "enough" when we are satisfied with what we have.
Indeed.
❤️ this ⬆️
To be content with ones own lot in life, is true success.
I disagree. There is more to life than mere survival.
19:19 yes, Little Joe says, "well, if I was hungry, I'd sell them"
... Meaning, some of her fine jewelry & clothes. Yep
I agree with Little Joe.
Awwww hoss always has a good attitude ☺️
She sees Hoss as a rich but somewhat naive pigeon! She took full advantage of it!
The thing I love most about hoss's actions was he never hit the lady. No matter how much a woman might break your heart or hurt you you don't hit the lady. And honest example of a real man is in Hoss Cartwright.
In the history of American television no other western ever topped Bonanza. I also feel, that remakes of old movies never live up to the original movies. For this reason when they tried to revive Bonanza with Michael Landon's son, as Little Joe, the show never had a chance.
I hate it when they sacrifice a characters integrity in order to further a one episode storyline. Hoss wouldn't grab his father like that and he wouldn't assume Adam is lying about such a matter.
Human beings are imperfect and this episode depicts that when Hoss's emotions made him have a momentarily lapse of reason
Love the antics and interaction between the two bros, Hoss & Joe 🤗 seen a lot of episodes but don't recall seeing this one before. Thank you 👌
And little Joe thought Mrs Lathem was a old goat, just to see his reaction was enough. Yet he gave his brother the honour, never cheated him out of the chance to be happy...that's brotherly love ..
I wish I'd had a chance with Hass. I've always been fond of him. 🤓
Such a sweetheart of a gentleman.
I just LOVE this dear sweet giant......HOSS. In real life he is the most biggest sweetheart in the world...LOVE your voice and LOVE your everything! HOSS foréver!!! 🍀
Why did Hoss keep getting all the ones that were messed up. All of them dropping him right away for another man.
Because the world is not fair and people who are not attractive have a lot of problems in romance.
Hoss is a big sweet teddy bear.
45:00
"and then you came along, and there were no more yesterday's, only tomorrow's"
- that was sweet
45:23 and then there were no yesterday's and only tomorrow's
She played Hoss like a fiddle.
To lose $20,000 in 1861, is a Heck of a lot of money.
Like a million or maybe millions today
About $600,000
People could save and make money in the past.
Adam didn't really lose the money. He arranged that game with the dealer who was a family friend. It was a phony game for Hoss's benefit to see what she was really like.
@@3Ddude101 That's right. Some people didn't pay enough attention to this video to know that.
Don't trust gold diggers
They will turn on u on a dime!
the cartwrights are like magnets to really weird woman
Ain't that the truth of it.
No. There are several times when the Cartwrights aren't magnets for weird women. I can remember when Little Joe fell in love with a very sweet and genuinely compassionate young woman. There was nothing at all weird about her. She died at the end of the episode.
Every time I think I seen them all another one pops up, so let’s get the gin out ❤️🙏🤣
vodka for me please.
Woooh. If I hadn’t read a thing or two about what might be happening, her sob story, oh poor me, might move me a little bit more. 😂😂😂😂
GREAT thanks for showing 2022
Julie Adams was great in this episode; one of my favorites.
House wins...eventually; ergo, play w/ toothpicks, pennies so no one gets hurt. ppl who bet paper money on cards like the squirrel who never gathered up for the winter or plum loco like Woody Woodpecker. Julie Adams is a wonderful actor
@@noahahlstrom3834 It's ok to play for money as long as you don't bet too much. It's entertainment and there's nothing wrong with paying for entertainment.
hoss punching adam and little joe was actually him wanting to punch her
Men, we have to think using what's upstairs--not downstairs 😉
A kind woman every good men must know to see what makes a good woman.
Excellent acting by the lovely Julie Adams in this one episode.
Gambling problem is one of the hardest addictions to beat
thank you for posting these. Will you be able to post all the seasons eventually?
I know that Michael Landon had a stuntman for this show but I'm surprised at how many of his stunts he did himself.
Julie Adams is the girlfriend of the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
She’ll gamble to have a relationship with him/it! 💕
I remember that old classic horror film. She also played in an old Andy Griffith episode and played the helpless female. I guess men love coming to the rescue of these types. We have all fallen for it one time or another.
The tub is so good 😊
21:00 .... I guess it would be almost like if I went travelling through sequoia forests and then my friend said "I actually own all this"
23:29 she knew she ought to wear something more rustic for this occasion. !
For a big man Dan moves fast. The shower curtin scene.
Athlete and decorated Korean war vet
I’m wondering how alimony worked 260 years ago. Everyone seems to get married pretty quick. Today there’s far too many methods to make money from home. There’s still greedy people out there.
260 years ago there was no alimony such as it is today. But the era of Bonanza was 160 years ago.
Beautiful way they care for the land. Wow . The truth hurts about ppl but its best to know . GBU all
No one expected Mrs Latham to be so young and attractive ..so because Hoss is such a gentleman, she knew just how to play the game...
Ben made a good point! Hoss has to decide for himself
Man I love Hoss
More private table, well I see it as a very public table. 3-12-2022
I can't wait to see the look on Pa's face
PA'S FACE 🤣 23:10
Big Shorty 😂😂
Nice job, Joe and Adam (heavy sarcasm!)
16:24 why are you being so charitable? . . . . "Why would I pound you ? I ain't mad at you."
The staircases were made to last back then. Dan Blocker weighed 300 pounds and he was sitting on the railing. If he did that to a modern railing, it would collapse because so many things aren't made in America anymore. A lot of things are assembled in America, but the products that they're made with are made in other countries. Sad.
I saw car lights in the background When Ben was telling us about the lady!
The actor Lyle Talbot was in a lot of episodes of "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." I have several episodes of "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet" on dvds. Lyle Talbot was the last actor in this episode that Helen went to when she left Hoss.
He is also the father of Stephen Talbot. Stephen is best known for Gilbert Bates on Leave it to Beaver
@@cdgates1 Thank you for that information. I didn't know that.
Nothing sexier than Hoss taking a bath!
did y'all notice Little Joe eating the raw potato peel...?
41:24 oh wow
......... Ben pays it post-haste (what amount? A couple thousand at least, but that was in 1860s money.... ?!) , But then destroys the "invoice" ?!
Apparently $5000 in those days was worth like $104000
Okay, so $20,000 in those days, was like $404000 or something like $400,000 ....
Of course he destroyed the invoice. He destroyed the invoice because he thought that he was protecting Hoss because he didn't want Hoss to accidentally finding it. Of course that was the wrong thing for Ben to do.
Hoss is so naive.
More women should have a man like Hoss.
wow even back then women were just gettin off the hook without learning their lesson
Love hoss .I hate to see always getting ran over
Otimo filme obrigado ?
$20,000 equates to 3/4 of 1,000,000+ today wow
Hoss sure can pick em up
Hellion, rather Helen, like all addicts in the midst of her addiction was blind to her addiction.
Ben did not want to hurt Hoss but didn't consider that if she married Hoss and became a Cartwright she could of gambled away Hoss's share of the Ponderosa and ruined the family. Thankfully Adam mostly had his good senses to do the right thing that would of spared Hoss much more pain in the future.
Golddigger at its best.
You got that right brother.
Hadn’t Hose ever seen a woman before judging by his stare ?.
Honestly, what did Joe and Adam expect but for Hoss to beat the shit out of them?
God that happened to me back in the day. Got locked out of my hotel room with a tea towel around my mid section. The tea towel was way too small.
Ben kept part of his money at home, and part in the bank (?)
That was a smart thing to do. He could very easily have needed emergency money at any time like if one of his sons was kidnapped. It was also very smart for him to keep money in the bank in case he got robbed at home.
In every movie I've ever seen Julie Adams in, she's always playing the victim, the way she moves and presents herself, she's the seductress. The role is significant in that it shows the wiles of a coyote in the female vampire. A great role for those of us gent's that want a real woman as a partner, help keep in our living experiences. using her feminine mystic is a necessary essential that motivates our creative juices.
Ummm
The downfall of Men....
She was in an old Andy Griffith episode and her character was a victim, but it was on the up and up. She's one of the most attractive women I've seen. It would be easy to fall for her.
She played a lying and manipulative woman using seductive allure to acquire greedily. If a man wants to be wooed by that type of a woman, he deserves her. I prefer down to earth, honest, kind, and caring manners.
@@user-pd7il3xz5j Of course men don't want that kind of woman to marry. They are deceived.
So get this: 5,000 USD back in 1860 would be the equivalent of 181,228.92 USD today, and Ben Cartwright was willing to just fork over that kinda cash for a woman that quite obviously wasn't worth it; and for what, to keep his son happy? How "happy" would he have been had Hoss had to pay that out of his own pocket?
Noone else gonna mention the elephant in the room?
CLEARLY Adam and the Dealer had a plan
The
The lady lost every hand. To the tune of $20,000 then the moment she left the room, the dealer tore up the IOUs, it was a RUSE to prove how bad an addict she was, the $20,000 was only part of the setup
Such a contrast "little joe" on bonanza and "Charles Ingalls" on LHOTP! Joe was a rich cattle merchant cowboy , while Charles was a piss poor dirt farmer! Both are entertaining characters!
I hate women like this. I met a women and her friend in a bar once. I offered to buy them each a drink. When the bartender came by, they each tried to order THREE expensive drinks on my tab. I told the bartender to cancel the order and told them to get lost. They acted like THEY had been insulted. I'm sure some sucker bought them drinks all night and was used by them.
And if you don't want to get used, why go to a bar to meet someone who's a stranger.
@@user-pd7il3xz5j Ummm because you can also meet some very nice people there. I didn't give up after that experience... and ultimately met my wife at a bar 37 years ago...
@@rhymereason3449 Fortunate for you both, congratulations on your significant years of marriage. Your story is not the typical experience for what usually happens at bars.
I bought lunch for a woman who told me she lost her home in a fire. She proceeded to buy almost everything on the menu.
@@t.e.8084 You sound like one of the Cartwrights. Wrap it up that you did a good deed, even if she was lying.
And this Mrs Latham lies like a cheap watch
How she can tell Ben how she was miserable, and lived with a mad man...
When she was the cause of all of it.
Uggh
He handed her $300 ..... 30:10 equivalent to about $9300 or more back in those days, I think (?!)
