Reviews:
"Robert Culp and Dabs Greer join the Cartwright boys to make an excellent episode.
Robert Culp plays a retired gunfighter who killed the town merchant's (Dabs Greer) son in a fair gunfight that the son initiated. The merchant has a hatred for the ex-gunfighter and would love to see him dead.
There's also another player in this episode. A deputy who wants to marry the merchant's daughter.
The ending is so tragic and sad you can't help but to cry along with everyone else. Two people are very disappointing characters and probably end up living lives all alone because of their actions and the part they played in the events that ended a life.
This is an excellent episode.
Dead: 1 Main Cartwright character: Adam" Written by mitchrmp on IMDb.com
"Robert Culp's performance with an air of irredeemable sadness about it is the highlight of Broken Ballad. Some elements of Gregory Peck's classic The Gunfighter are in this episode where Pernell Roberts is the featured Cartwright.
In this episode Culp plays a gunfighter who has returned to Virginia City to settle on a small piece of land left to him by his parents. But as is in this western cliché, people will just not leave him alone. That plot gambit has been used in westerns of varying quality for decades. It has an interesting twist in the end though.
Dabbs Greer is the father of his first victim who leads some of the citizens against Culp. Greer's got fresh reason for concerned as his daughter Abigail Shelton starts seeing Culp. Ray Buckley plays the young punk who also likes Shelton and would like to get a reputation as a gunfighter.
Still Culp dominates this Bonanza episode and he's the main reason to see it." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com

I love this episode very much. Has anyone noticed how beautiful Pernell's voice truly is! Wow! 💋😘💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Yes I noticed Pernell's awesome singing voice in another episode where he tries to help a man who can't carry a tune get his girlfriend to want to marry him.
I loved Adam he is the only reason I watched this show in face I only watch the part with him they say he was in 202 eps that's wrong he is only in 167 of the 202
Adam wears his long shirts three quarter length. He is such a handsome cowboy.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No
Love hearing Adam sing. He has a great voice. Found a continuity error: at 40:56 the stones on the right have only four in number, while the stones on the left have several more. At 41:30 there are equal long rows on the right and left. A little while later, you see the mic slip in and out of the frame when Billy challenges Ed (Robert Cup) to the dual.
This was a real good episode what a master performance by Purnell Roberts and Robert Culp
I liked a lot having Robt. Culp and Pernell Roberts in a show together, two of my very favorite actors.
Pernel has a great singing voice when he joined in on the singing at the campfire.
So true, I was pretty surprised he had a really strong voice.
Dabbs Greer had such a long Career a solid actor in anything he did
A very well written and acted episode, one of the best I've seen.
This was spectacular, what an amazing cast, Robert Culp is so debonaire, and handsome has a class of his own. With Adam and Robert singing, this is definitely an original. Funny how the writers create such a scenario of death between men and boys over a woman?
Love Adam singing, beautiful voice.
There's a Culp Family Estate at the Gettysburg Battlefield. Being a Civil War Buff, I can't help wondering whether Robert Culp has an ancestral connection to that estate ground, hotly contested in the battle.
That’s horrible!😭😭😭 I can’t believe they’d have the sweet guy die!
Super thanks for posting the description of the episode-it’s sooo helpful.
Definitely my favorite Bonanza UA-cam channel !! 😇💙
I love them giving Ed grief for killing a handful of men, when each Cartwright has a double digit body count.
The reasons are different, though. ;)
When this episode aired, Robert Culp was eight years into a nearly six-decade career in theater, movies, and television. Best known for playing tennis pro/spy Kelly Robinson in the TV series I Spy (with Bill Cosby), Culp was also a four-time foil of Peter Falk’s Colombo.
I knew he looked familiar. I remember he was on an episode of the Cosby show as well.
One of the best episodes. Powerful scenario. Good characters, acting and atmosphere.

One of my favorite episode. So sad ending. Adam, again, lost one of his friend.
I liked hearing Robert sing he’s good and he sure had a good role I like!
Robert Culp was a great and multi-faceted actor. I miss him.
Me too.
This is an excellent episode. Great to hear Pernell sing.
Yes, great voice.
Beautiful voice Adam.
Beautiful voice.
Ugh that Billy guy is so annoying, if a girl doesn't want you she doesn't want you. And though is such a good and caring man who defends what is right, very sad that he lost another friend, seems the Cartwrights shouldn't get too close and love people or they will lose them, both friends and love interests. Great episode, just a really sad ending.
⚘This one did not end right!😣
Well, Billy just had to do it. But he didn't look too darn satisfied after he en done it. Notice that?
Great episode. I find myself commenting on most episodes I see. Great show.
Love Robert Culp in just about anything he did.
And his distinct voice
Robert Ryan
Oops it is Robert Culp

.. .
Great actor, he and Pernell where amazing in this episode.
Loved this episode, I find the episodes that focus more on Adam were very interesting.
I wish I knew how to get the list of all the six years Pernell (Adam) was in the series as the main lead in whatever story he acted in. Hoss was in a couple very good stories, but Adam is by far the best actor and everyone that he is the subject in, he did a five-star performance.
His stories had more depth I felt, like The Crucible, The Ride, Voice in the Dark ect.
@@NightridewithNikkiThe dark gate is another episode with more deep but dark story line that deals with mental illness and domestic violence (though Adam loses another friend in it), I really like some of the episodes that focus more on Adam I feel they have more debt in them, that could maybe be because of his acting too.
I agree. They had more substance to them.
Reverend Alden sure had a mean streak in him in his younger days.
Brilliant episode, love your singing adam
Adam...you are so cute.❤❤❤
The directing and writing were like an epic movie!
That boy they called Billy is the same "Billy Boy" from a while ago! I was so excited when I saw him!😁😆
Billy should have moved on. It was quite obvious Sally wasn't really interested in him.
Yeah, I noticed it too. He's a very convincing young cowboy. Too bad this was the last of his only two appearances on Bonanza.
Same actor played Billy in Blood on the Land.
Robert Culp, a very nice surprise. The man asks Adam where he's going and Adam replies, 'Where ever I want.' Great come back. The Priest from Little House on the Prairie. A lot of the character actors that passed through Bonanza were hired as full time character actors on Little House on The Prairie. A very good episode. I don't know how the Cartwrights never went broke, always doling out money to folks, who die.
Dabbs Greer was the storekeeper on Gunsmoke for nearly a decade starting in the mid-50s.
Where are you going Cartwright? Any place I please; any objections? I love it when Adam gets 'snappy' .😘
Me too.
Me three.
Me 4

Love bonanza
Adam saying well if you don't know can't explain it to you find is the best line in the show
Wow such a great show. EVERY one did a fine acting job as usual! I am 70 and watched these shows with my family. I had a little vest and skirt, fake suade with fringe, cowgirl boots and a pop gun. I was 8 or 9 years old. I wore my outfit in the woods and around the lake collecting rocks. 😁🐴👍🐮😁 This particular show had an ending I did not expect. Very sad 😢 However I understand why. The shop owner, and the kid needed to change their way and do some real thinking about revenge and jealous angry behavior. They will of course know the gun slinger could have won. But he took the bullet. ,💔
Thanks for the uploads as well. Enjoyed every bit of it
13:49, one of two episodes where Hoss is reading a book.
11:35 Ben asks, "Do you know how many years we've been trading with Will Cass? "
Except this is the first time he's ever appeared in the show and probably the last lol.
Plus, Will Cass turned out to be an unreasonable jerk! 😒
@@billh.5360 Ben too
@@BlackangelKatakuri Exactly, I thought that it was so unfair for Ben to not give Adam a chance to explain, what's the sense in saying that he would give him the chance but actually don't? makes no sense whatsoever. Sometimes Ben actually gets on my last nerve, too overbearing, too authoritative and talks to his sons as though they are little children, especially when he tells them to get upstairs and go to bed, absolutely ridiculous 😡
That's the Youngest I've Seen Robert Culp.
Remember watching saddest episode feel sorry for Adam lossing another friend
Great directing!
Only about my 15th time watching this great episode
Whoa... didn't see that coming
The carwrights before dinner say their prayer , But forgot to wash their hands
Just wanna mention the actor who played Billy the Douche was great!
Same actor was in another Bonanza, and he was Billy the Douche there as well. lol
@@MisterMasterShafter1He pretty much played the same character twice, I was bit confused first lol.
@@teijaflink2226 it’s true, and he was nearly a identical character and his name was Billy and was a prick in both. Blood on the Land is the other episode .
An unexpected ending. Thanks.
Robert Culp was the main star in Trackdown a 71 episode series about the Texas Rangers. He was really versatile as an actor.
thanks for the upload!
Our pleasure!
Love Robert Culp as the villain in many Columbo episodes
Muchas gracias AMIGO 👍🏽👌🏽
this guy played two different Billy's on the same show haha
Culp looks like a Young Randy Travis.
He doesn't sing like him, though.
10:00 Oh man, half a dollar? You couldn't get anything in that box today for that, let alone the the whole box!😮
Robert Culp and Ryan Reynolds seem to be similar in ways.🤔
Yes their voices are similar.
Very good👍 👌🤩🤩😍🥰😘
Thanks 🤗
I thought once a man had paid his debt to society he had earned the right to live peacefully and undisturbed where ever he chose.
Not from what iv seen from this world, but I understand that's how the system was/is suppose to be.
Only if he is white and wealthy.
Depends upon the nature of the crime.
Consider sex offenders.
That phrase does not apply here. Everyone felt he had not paid his debt to society, since he had never been tried.
That’s true but it’s also about a man not wanting to admit his son was trash 🗑️
The knight! Adam kept getting accused of robbing the stagecoach! Haha lol it was hilarious 🤣 I laughed till I 😂 cried when Adam was in jail and he said, "What kind of insane asylum is this"? The Sheriff said, "Well it'll have to do till we can get you in a real one! "😂 lol
Different episode but great and funny one!
Sally should have told Billy I don't love you I never did and I never will
9:29, "No, I just brought you a little grub"
I understand using an instrument to bring light to the dark places of your mind.
Temporary,,, but it works
24:35 always cracks me up
This has a sad ending...It ended with me mixed up with pity sadness and hate.
Ben needs to support his sons a bit more. It seems like half the time one of them goes out on a limb for something he believes in, Ben is right there ready to tell them all the reasons they were wrong. I mean, come on! He didn't even give Adam a chance to tell his side of what happened. His actions were completely justified and Ben still took the word of the store owner over his own son! Ridiculous!
saddest episode i ever watched
I remember watching this one, a bit more on the reality of life in a sad way, although that was pretty much murder by Billy, I was wondering why Adam didn't shoot Billy when showed up or his hand.
You obviously hadn't seen The Crucible. The episode was heart wrenching!
I hope it's realized that that other man who shot the man his girlfriend liked didn't make him a hero. The guy that Adam befriended didn't really want the fight. He could've probably outdrew the jealous boyfriend. This episode didn't hit me one way or the other. Except that the guy Sally was crazy about was trying to lead a more normal life. Some folks don't want to give u the chance.
could have probably outdrawn, but yes.
Hey did Out draw him, Just didn't shoot, Then the boy, Sucker Shot him.
If I were Adam, I'd have seen to it, as an eyewitness, that that kid was indicted and tried for murder.
Could've of!!! he did outdraw the little punk, you would of made a sorry witness. LOL
Most definitely
will cass played on little house on the prairie as reverend aldon
👍👌👏 Great cast! Same old story since thousands of years. Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing.
Best regards, luck and health.
Very few gun fighters lived to a ripe old age. Even those that wanted to quit. Their reputation followed them wherever they went. From the moment they strapped on that gun, it seems that their fate was sealed.
Its every walk in life you die with what you choose to be. Only ones I can think of who died of age or not a gunfight were Clay Allison, Wyatt Earp and his brother.
Excellent movie
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching! 🤠👌🎬🍿
That’s right, in all of these westerns, they lived by the gun, first the store owner, then Adam gets involved with Ed and a go-between with Billy, an unhappy ending.
After I finish watching this I will go out and buy me some grub.
Very beautiful 🌹🌹🌹
Isn't the storekeeper Mr Jonas from Gunsmoke?
I know him better as Reverend Alden, but yes. :)
Dont like the ending☹.
Perhaps Adam not allowed to have a close friend in Bonanza...so must finished that friend off.
No friends and girlfriends for the Cartwright boys.
The opening scene was often used in other episodes. 13:58. Love the Cartwright library. So cool that the Cartwright family is a literate one. I bet Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket is on their book shelf. I will always think of Robert Culp in "The Glass Hand" of the original Outer Limits. I think his best work was in that marvelous Outer Limits. Culp died during his walk in the Hollywood hills. I hope I die jogging/walking here in Cebu.
Beautyfull song.......
Belo filme excelente😍👏👏👍
The father had a very warped viewpoint and just couldn't allow himself to believe his son wasn't holier than thou and anything but an innocent victim. If the father hadn't been so twisted and hateful he would've called it a fair fight and let his daughter make up her own adult mind of who she wanted to see. If he had any sense of fair play and justice he should've told Billy to leave his daughter alone and let her make her own choices. If she didn't want that punk hot headed kid that's his tough luck. The ending totally sucked and was one those unrealistic "would never have really gone that way" endings. Culp beat the kid by a mile on the draw but he held his shot. At that point he'd won the draw and it was a done deal, all over. But the kid still drew his gun and shot him down in cold blood. That was straight up murder, but he doesn't even get charged for it. There's no way in hell any man is just going to stand there and allow the other guy to shoot him down after he's already got the drop on him. In any on the spot fight for survival the will to preserve your own life is going to win out every time over "feeling sorry for the other guy" no matter what the situation is. You're gonna shoot first and think about remorse later. That's why the ending is ridiculous and completely unrealistic. Nothing but some writer's vision of an overly melodramatic conclusion with the girl running into the camera screaming.
I don't think it was unrealistic.
But I agree Billy should have been charged for murder, as he was motivated by sheer jealousy.
I agree it was murder because the other man obviously wasn't going to shoot.
Well they didn't show of he was charged with murder or not, I would at least assume Adam would see he gets charged (unless he suddenly felt sorry for him and thought he learned a lesson but I think he would have done it for Sally).
Sally says "I'm not that much older than you are." Was she joking, or was that a mistake? She's younger than he is.
How do YOU know???
@@jonhohensee3258 because she was a little girl when he killed her brother, so unless he was a really little boy when they had that gunfight, she's younger than him.
@@jarrodbarkley9061 - How do YOU know how old they were when they had that gunfight?
@@jonhohensee3258 He doesn't... any more than YOU do. But YOU have to admit that what he says makes sense.
@@ApartmentKing66 - YOU don't scare me.
I want more about little Joe Lol
Watch the later episodes...they're mostly about Little Joe.
Meh
That's ole grease lighting himself
Fights between masses of armed men are even more senseless, especially when no side has exclusively rightful war- and peace aims. - JZ, 23.1.21.
So why did Pernell Roberts Leave the show? This Wonderful Old show was undermined by a heavy handed father. Not often was Ben a Dad of MEN but of Boys. He saw them only as his boys and it took the edge off 4 full grown men working and fighting when they had too in order so keep what they had.
The writers make those decisions - blame them. Pernell saw that his character was going nowhere, that the father-figure always had the last say and his "sons" weren't allowed to grow.
@@watchgoose so Very TRUE!!!!!!
I commented on that same thing in another episode
Ben treated him, Like he was 8 years old
Pernell didn't really want to leave the show, but he got his bluff called and the director was tired of working with him. Ben as the patriarch is a trope and is the least of things to complain about. Bonanza had much more sillier stories, ie the constant dying of their women, which is more ridiculous than Ben as the patriarch.
What a tragedy!😭♥️
ممتاز .. ربي يسعدك
Hate = Murder 😲 🤔😕 🙏
jealousy here too, on Billy's end.
Hmm... this actor reminds me of an actor in a Columbo episode. Can't remember which - but he seems familiar.
I think Robert Culp made a good decision to become an actor rather than a singer.
He did a pretty good job. I couldn't sing as well as he does!
Many kingdoms have fallen over the power of the V. Lmao
Power of the v?
Why duel with guns when there are so many other and not deadly competition options? - JZ, 23.1. 21.
That's what happened to her brother , 10 year before, A forced him into a gunfight
Why would you want a woman that wants somebody else, That's plumb Foolish
They all want somebody else.
Just one of the many pitfalls that someone can fall into, friend.
Will here on Bonanza plays Reverand Robert Alden
roy coffee, hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
37:14 That was a sissy throw. Isn't that Ron Carey (AKA Levitt from Barney Miller)?
That's Richard Rosmini.
No, no, no. 😂 LOL.
Well, the ponderosa just got larger
Not too sure, but I think the actor who played the Storekeeper father was also a regular in the 12 O'Clock High tv series.
Ah, now I remember, I think. Wasn't he the preacher on Little House on the Prairie?
This episode is a prime example of father thinking his son has angels wings but in reality was a piece of shit
Brought you some Grub.. How much I owe you? half a Dollar. FOR ALL THAT FOOD? TALK ABOUT INFLATION NOW DAYS THAT ORDER WOULD COST 60$
Billy might not go prison or hang but he’ll spend the rest of life being known as a coward I’m pretty sure Adam told everyone what happened the next day
That first song he sang was Great!!!
Anyone know if it's a real song ?
Por favor
Coloque legenda
Obrigada.
anyone know if theres a name for the song at 31:58 ?
I don't know Sally, this I must do.
i didnt like the ending. i didnt like the line about him being faster. and i think adam would have yelled at billy for shooting ed, after he basically saved his life by not firing at all, when he was way faster on the draw.
Wow was that a cheap shot. The guy is way faster than you on the draw. He holds himself back from killing you and you use that act of mercy to sneak a shot in.
