Storyline:
"The Colonel" is habitual liar Frank Medford, an old friend of Ben Cartwright. Now a poverty-stricken travelling salesman, Frank is determined to convince everyone that he is as successful as Ben.

It takes the love of a good woman-to be exact, Emily Colfax (Hellena Westcott)-to cure Frank of his chronic prevarications. Written on rottentomatoes.com
Reviews:
"An old friend from the army John Larkin arrives in Virginia City and Lorne Greene welcomes him. Larkin also gets a warm reception from Helen Westcott a well to do 30 something woman.
Larkin is nothing more than a traveling salesperson, but he's in the Harold Hill tradition and blows a lot of smoke. He inadvertently creates a lot of ill will toward the Ponderosa with his tall tales.
Larkin and Westcott are a fine romantic pair who prove in that line from the song, 'love isn't just for the young'." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com

We need people like Ben and his sons in this world. Another great show.
Bonanza was family time around the TV when I was growing up! 50 years later, I still love watching it.
I remember that family time watching Bonanza. I still love it.
I’ll never forget hearing the news of Hoss’s death in 1972…….I was sad for days!
@@MrSapplease So was I, Dan Blocker was a favorite of alot of people!!!.
@@MrSapplease Wow hard to believe it was that long ago.
I never ot to watch Bonanza when I was a kid,after Walt Disney was over, we kids were shood off to bed. We tried peeking thru the bedroom shade over the bedroom door but got caught
Every episode is like a little movie. So much quality entertainment.
One of the rare episodes where Bonanza shows one of life’s aspects without violence nor firing a single shot.
.....or saloon brawls.
The dramatic episodes w/o loud gunshots are truly wonderful
I want to know if Adam got one of Hop Sings Apple pies.....after all he was out driving cattle.
And no dead fiancees
It almost came to gunplay of asa
i liked how ben said..his wealth is his sons
And half Nevada territory.
I always liked this episode since the first time it aired when I was a child. John Larkin delivered such a nuanced, superb performance as Frank Medford. This episode is well-scripted, acted and directed. We learn a little bit more about Ben's past and his many friends and acquaintances. All in all, another fine episode. Many thanks!
The cartwrights were a FINE family!! Upstanding and loving to each other. It was so believable because of the fine acting, writing and directing.As a young kid I loved the beautiful way a program in color looked! At the time "Bonanza" was one of the few that were in color. Although I had to go to my aunt and uncle's place to watch the show they had a color tv!!!!!
I too was a child when we watched it. I have 3 older bros so esch bro identified from my dad ben and oldest hoss. You know where that goes so I asked what about me a girl they said i was Hop sing
John Larkin is outstanding in this role. I’ve seen him in other programs but he’s really touching in this episode of Bonanza.
Ben was such a likeable guy, he had thousands of old dear friends 😆
It’s written in the scripts
Ha, I was going to say something similar. The first words of the episode are "We've been friends for such a long time Ben", and I'm thinking yes here's this episode's person who's been such a dear close friend of Ben for such a long time that we've never seen or heard of them until now.
@@GOLDVIOLINbowofdeath Don't be an ass. We all know that is in the script.
Well, he sailed around the world as a kid. I like to think he has so many friends just because he's lived such an adventurous life.
these happen-stance Jack-ass meetings of Ben and who-have-youis a running joke
What a tearjerker! This has become one of my favorite episodes. We all need hope and even a little fantasy in our lives. This guy had it in spades, I'm glad he fessed up to his exaggerations and found hope with a good woman.
The lesson's delivered by this whole crew are heartfelt and immortalized through our 21-century tech., who'd ever imagine 20 years ago we'd be watching Bonanza on UA-cam? Great episode and the comments are well received, great script, acting and the antagonist assuming he was being cheated was interesting, and then Ben realizes his role well by encouraging understanding, enlightenment about what courage and forgiveness look like from other angles.
Richard - lessons
OK @@jonhohensee3258
It's the crux of the biscuit.
@@AndrewVelonis - I didn't know biscuits had cruxes.
Or on tubi
Ben : ""Three sons : they are my wealth""
For a second I thought Hoss was BBQING. HAHA
"Oh what a web we weave...." but confession of the truth always saves, and of course, Ben is there, as always, to give courage to his old friend. Well done!
I thank the Lord for this Show Bonanza!:) I try to watch Bonanza, with my husband every day. I do thank all the people and actor's, that put this Bonanza Show, together. God continue to bless you all, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. Prayerfully your's, Prophetess Sister Sarah Mutchler!:)🙏🙋💪💃💪🇺🇸🙏
It's just a show don't be such an extremist!😃😃😃
The Old Wild West wouldn't have been that exciting and glamorous if it weren't for the likes of Bonanza, Louis Lamour, Clint Eastwood,John Wayne etc etc. I salute them all. yeeehaaa !
Aldrinin Marvo Lamin Don't forget Lonesome Dove, Gunsmoke, and the Virginian as well!!!.
@@mikeweizer3149 The rifleman. The lone ranger.
Well, that was a close one! As always, thanks for these episodes.
What I like about “ Bonanza” is that every episode is different and one learns a lot of life lessons in these episodes ! It’s sad to thank all these actors are long dead now !
That rifle cabinet is my favourite part of the ranch house.
I've admired it since I was a Little Guy in the 1960s.
The big fireplace is mine
@@belbal5004 Good choice! 🤠
As a boy that cabinet fascinated. There were also mysterious books beneath them...
I liked the guest room
love these shows .
Ben Cartwright knows everybody
Bens character is so warm friendly and inviting .
A man would have to earn my trust .
His voice was powerful
Yes remember those days when family set around the TV watch bonzana still do on UA-cam and movies
On you tube and Tubi
On tv Land
Today MeTV tv Land you tube Tubi can get Bonanza on
what's "bonzana"?
It's Bonanza
I can tell when the story is centered around the colonel the liars music starts playing
I ❤ love bonanza..im glad you tube has full episodes i know it takes data on my mobile the show is also on Tubi
Very nonviolent episode of bonanza.thanks.
Lying is never a good thing. It's better to just be yourself. It's a clear lesson. People will respect your more.
Sooner or later the truth always comes out. Great show. Thanks for posting it. Bonanza is the best.
Had the colonel been honest from the outset, he still would have married the redhead, AND he would have had a much better reputation with which to kick-start his new life in Virginia City. Goes to show you the real value of honesty.
Who could resist when Ben Cartwright says please 😍
Beautiful piece,just beautiful 👍
That picnic scene has been seen in many of the Bonanza episodes.
I was looking for this comment🙏🤗
Nice episode. Colonel Frank is just a fabulous man. And his love Emily is just a beautiful and wonderful lady. A slight misunderstanding became the obstacle between them, but Ben Cartwright solved the problem wisely and they got each other and got married in the climax. Wonderful episode.Western Classic. One of my favorite.❤❤❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹😍😍
Asa was from time frank came to town suspicions of the man in end went berserk
A real love story.
Poor guy created such big lies almost costing him his life.
Good movie!
Gun taken to one for lying? Asa was that mad
@@LindaMerchant-pm8vn Yea if he had lost his life it would have been Asa's psychosis that took it. You don't murder someone because they lied
Another great episode.
The Ponderosa has the biggest single front door on any private house I've ever seen .
The windows closed at night when the cartrights were having dinner
It’s all about Love.
I never knew railroad building required farming plows
👍👌👏 I'm still not able to resist a red haired woman. If she even has green eyes and wears green clothes, I'm even more lost. 😁 :-)
Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health.
She would sound Irish 😮
Dear @@LindaMerchant-bq2hp
Years ago I learnt that Scotland has the most red haired women! I always thought that it is Ireland.
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
Ben was such a good man I'm sure after he passed he went to the "great ponderosa"
"Thank you, Ben." Great ending!
"Martha" had a guest spot on MASH , and was a nun in Sister Act 1& 2
Wasnt she i the other bonanza episode enter thomas bowers minnie Watkins
Very good western well plaid by you All
Ben Cartwright...... the matchmaker!!
LOL
When you love someone after 2-3 days how could it possibly go wrong😂😂😂
Sometimes worked out in a world where commitment was key.
So so good...
.
Have you noticed all the stories and adventures that Ben have been on and explored. How did he make his wealth and built the Ponderosa? It almost seems like it was so impossible to accomplish.🥰👍
Maybe they got so wealthy like most of the people back then, re-invest and live off the land. Some of the richest man post Civil War bought a bit of land or stock and reinvested every cent into new land or stock while living off the cheap land. The only luxury back then was equipment, food, wood etc. was plenty, especially when it was your land.
People moved very frequently if they failed at something men like Rollo 800s-900s by most accounts started with very little if not nothing as he was not a son of gentry but he founded Normandy & sired William the Conqueror who would conquer England & the sons of Tancred (Normans but not Rollo's descendants) took Italy in the East. That is his legacy, but he didn't settle in Normandy until his 50s.
Homesteading and then selling some of the resources on the land to get started, like pine trees, and mining
It's a show! Fake!😃😃😃
@@marydavis7978 this show is based on the real storys of ben cartwright and his sons on ponderosa
My son Eric everyone calls him Hoss
It's rare for Hoss to be introduced as Eric.
The first wedding crasher...
I have only heard it said that love and happiness could transform a plain woman into a beauty and I saw it happen today. (of course make up doesn't hurt either :) Such a very fine episode. A winner.
Good
Sorry about that, Chief.
outstanding!
Glad you like it! Thanks for tuning in! 🤠👌🎬🍿
Every time he tells lies that harmonica plays on and on
The harmonica so condescending the liars music
A colonel without a horse
That harmonica is patronizing
Amen!🙂❤️
Great episode
É impressionante, mas eu sinto uma falta terrível do Adam quando ele não aparece nos episódios.
Great😅
always confused why they set it in the 1860s pre the Civil War when the weaponry and feel is much more 1870s Golden Age of the West
It wasn't pre civil war it was at least during the civil war as a couple episodes ago the plot was centered on the civil war and Joe's bride who came from a southern family and the anger this caused with Adam and the fighting in the family.
The actress that played Emily was a very beautiful woman. With lips that were made to be kissed.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Why is everything always "back East", "from the East"....? All the people came from the East and moved to the West......?
Pretty much. unless trappers or disillusioned west coast gold hunters, things like that.
I heard the South mentioned being the American civil war was on
During the civil war north south and in the territorial states it was east west
Everybody came from the east. The only people who didn't were the Chinese.
What happens when we see another doing well, in d end we loose everything we hv, 👍👌😍🥰😘⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❤❤❤❤
Bens family first before his fame
I saw the episode the gift beautiful white horse with Martin landau
Erick? I never knew Hoss's name was Erick!
The episode that explains why he was named Eric and about his mother, is called " Inger, My Love."
So Hoss' name is Eric!
Hoss was very funny around 37:05 !!
You can love someone only knowing them a few days or weeks.
All those plows Asa suspicious then
They sure fell in love quick back then.
Few episodes had mail order brides even lol. They didn'td have much time for flirting back then!
I thought it may have been embarrassing for the colonel when asa told ben 'if hede been his friend, hede of run him out of town'
Asa got real mad over nothing nearly came to a shooting over lies
I was a fan of agent 83 and his wife number 6
He tried to build himself up like Big Ben Cartwright.
So Ben was a soldier of fortune in Nicaragua?
Lol he had so many pasts it's amazing he had time for them all.
How many older female friends does Ben have? Lol
One is too many
And his poor sons none at all.
What was Hoss cooking on the BarB? Probably steaks!
He was heating up iron. There is an anvil right next to him.
Dan Blocker often played a blacksmith in other acting roles before Bonanza and during. The two movies he starred in, he played a blacksmith. I guess being big and strong he fit the part.
Well not chuck wagon beans
Ponderosa or bonanza restaurants steaks
A whole steer. Good meat 🥩 ❤
Sad that Nicaragua is been lost to comunism now😢
Deacon John Larkin lent Paul Revere the horse he used for his ride.
The only thing I missed in this episode was the lack of watching the Cartwrights.
That's why I'm not into this one. I don't know who these characters are, and I don't care about their troubles. I can't get through this episode...
Ben is such a lovely man. I wish he were my husband.
They sure seem to be confused on what love is.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
There were times in my life where I was as broke as the Colonel. And like him, I found myself talking my way out of some very embarrasing sitations--not always with elan....I have been to some places where I had to chew the coffee.
Did Adam get his apple pie?
@@nadaprlic22 I don't see how Hop Sing could have baked a pie in the few minutes of notice they gave him when they changed the schedule.
Cartwright curse backlash
didnt know hosses name was eric
The colonel is a good looking man but has definitely dental issue to solve! What I noticed through all episodes many actors seem to suffer from the same problem; I wonder why : is the dental fees were so expensive at that time??
They didn't bother much about teeth back then. While I was a kid growing up, well after Bonanza finished airing, so many of my mates had vampire teeth and never bothered about it.
Haas's real name is Eric ? Who knew ?
RAYMOND Lemirand I did!.
Same here also Hoss is a mountain term that means friend
@@michaelweizer7794 Ditto!
I have watched the series multiple times and that is the only time they say his actual name.
I knew...bonanza wikipedia :) and, hours and hours and hours of bonanza
The map mysteriously lowers at the 36:02 mark.
Good catch!
Didn't the guy just straighten up?
@@ForgetMeNot2022
You're right. Thank you, Elizabeth!
Yep, the Colonel’s got a gun 🙄
What's the point in lying when truth is always revealed? How can you trust a person that easily? My mother's paternal grandfather was an army colonel but not a man of love. I've never seen a picture of him, only heard about what he did. Everybody disliked him. I wonder why he believed he was so great.
Isn't it amazing to live in a time one can learn so many indications of ancestors pasts. I had tried before, but finally other peoples' research made it possible and a window opened into a multifaceted/ multii dimensional story. Some good, and some bad, but not too much was boring.
Every lie he uttered the harmonica echoed
What was asa so mad about?? Alright run thevlying man out of town ,because its not cause enough to nearly shoot a man
There wasn't a kernel of truth in what the colonel said.. asa said if Ben hede been hede of ran him out of town on a railroad very one the colonel lied about
I didn't think they had hand gernades in the 1800's? At least not the traditional " pineapple" type anyway?! Lol
I'm sure they didn't have belts either in the 1850s, but that shore didn't stop them from wearing em anyway.
@@aaraar4055 Are you kidding? Belts probably go back thousands of years.
Jesus does he trust and gives a chance to all liers and sinners!
So Eric is Hoss's real name.
Is Martha Mary wickes ??
