Good Ole Claude Akins. Character actor who nearly always played the heavy, but had the reputation as one of the nicest and easy-going actors in Hollywood.
Man I love Ben he was the only father I had growing up,an just so protective an smooth it will never be another Ben Cartwright they need to make a remake modern Bonanza it still should be a western of 1800s but just modern like Django and Good Lord Bird
Claude Adkins was a phenomenal actor. The Ezekiel character was meant to be very literal, obsessive, and mad. Not just any actor could pull that off like CA did here.
I remember back in the 1990's when guys were jealous if they caught you talking to their wives. Times are a lot worse now; Guys get jealous if they catch you talking to their dog.
Thank God he does, what of it...you better hope you will too when you get old. His friends are miles away. Let's only hope when you need friends they will be close by. Let's hope you will be as good a friend he has been on this show.
theres an ep of gunsmoke with claud akins , hes a total schzo -nut who after a konk on the head is mr nice guy and becomes kittys "boyfriend" but then his true psycho nature comes out and matt hasta blow his head off
I enjoy watching Bonanza. How much better the show would have been if the Cartwright men would have married and children. According to the movie Bonanza Second Generation they did but the viewers never got to actually see it.
Commenters please calm down about this being a """bomb""" episode==just be content with the fact that the heros HATS NEVER POP OFF when fighting*falling off thier horses*jumping in the rivers*!!!!
We all are different which makes up a gr8 world if the negativity were not to knock others for their thoughtfulness. I liked Dan Blocker, Hoss. So you see, we are fortunate to have those we like. im waiting to see where they got rid of Pernell Roberts and how.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing. This episode is among the weaker ones. Respetfully, as for the man, Ben, he exists for the show. Humans, outside the parameters of the show, are as they are, for better, or worse.
Aww. Ben was a great friend 2 her,when u care 4 someone u want them happy. Her husband get those ideals in his head 4rm his help. Wish Ben could marry her.
That's what cowboys were about; gallop, shoot, fist fighting and herding cattle. The Cartwrights were a special breed though. They seems to constantly fall in love with almost every skirt too. Still... Adam is my man.
🙋♀️ So i know i just said i preferred Claude as a “good guy” 😬 _BUT_ he sure did do a *GREAT JOB* 😉 playing 🎭 a _CREEPY DUDE_ 🥴 didn’t he? 🤷♀️ Eww! 😝💦 Still love 💕 him though! 🥰😘
Very good, but the ending sucked. In reality, she wouldn't have left. They would have married and started a happy life together, on the Ponderosa. BUT, you can blame _Hollywood_ for wanting to keep him single. This way, they don't have to get out of their script-writing comfort zone...
@@brendanforester4601 Actually, it's standard practice with TV programs. They don't want any drastic changes in the family dynamics, or the lack thereof.
@@ladybird127 Actually, the reason he left is because he felt that the entire series was beneath his greater abilities. This unhappy perspective also affected the relationships with nearly everyone there, including his co-actors. Of course, as we all know, he later went on to have his own series "Trapper John,. M.D." www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/bonanza-adam-cartwright-left-because-the-actor-hated-him.html/
She should’ve stayed with Ben and his family she would’ve had a real man plus financial security but she didn’t care about any money she was a real woman that’s why Ben was so attracted to her.
Joyce: i saw him bending over me with a carving knife!” 🔪 Ben: Joyce, surely you must know that Tom meant no harm!” 🙆🏼♀️ OMGOSH WTF are you _talking about_ Ben?! 🤷♀️ Sure sounded *”harmful”* 😱 to me! Should be telling Joyce “you’re NEVER going back to live with that creep again! He may *KILL YOU* next time! 😤🔪 Ben’s guilt is clouding ☁️ his judgement i think? 🤦🏼♀️
Laurie Davis I must say my reaction was the same when Ben said that..... Bonanza's great, but it's always a bit contrived. They had to make Tom seem like a really good person who'd just been embittered by bad luck. My guess is he was always a creep.
🙄 Ok, @1:35 did Joyce almost call Ben “Adam” 🤭 or did she say “oh *uh* Ben ...”? 🤔 i’ve listened over and over but 🤷♀️! Help me decide?! 🙆🏼♀️ TY!! 🥰😘
I assume it has something to do with licensing laws. I could be wrong but it seems if you change something from the original then it's technically not "pirating." Responses from more knowledgeable viewers?
*SOLO ONE, ALL OF THE ORIGINAL THEME MUSIC APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN CHANGED, AS I MAKE THAT PUBLIC COMMENT ALONG WITH THE TIME-STAMP OF THE FAKE THEME SONGS ON ALL THE SERIES ONE AND SERIES TWO MOVIES THAT I´VE SEEN SO FAR. **2:35*
EXACTLY THAT! I was wondering why they even wanted to experiment with the theme song. Seriously??? That doesn't even sound like BONANZA! It didn't need "fixin." I stopped watching after Adam left. I couldn't really get used to Candy. Still one of my all time favorite Westerns.
i am not too crazy about this episode. first, the character of ezekiel is not really believable. nor is his ability to manipulate mr. edwards to that degree. and you cant trade another person, so that should have been said immediately. i also did not like the fact that ben went after a married woman. and that adam was okay with it. just not a well written script
@Willie Gordon you couldnt sell someone, unless they were already a slave. i dont think there were any white slaves in the usa. and in the episode about the civil war, it was mentioned that nevada was not yet a state, just a territory.
Yep you see I'm 63 years old I love the cartwrights and they've lived a Christian perfect life they had kill back in those days I guess you had to but still I live on the 85 Acres Ranch all horses and I still work hard Cowboy fucking up I love Bonanza frying up some rays with him when I was just a tyke
Bonanza is my favorite show
Same here.
U haven’t watched Batman yet ...

Should have named this episode: ‘Insecurity is an open wound” leaves you vulnerable to all kinds of human pestilence.
Great channel ! Thanks for uploading these priceless classics 🎤🇺🇲💯
One of my favorites. Wish she had stayed with Ben but she really needed to get away.
Thanks.
Claude Adkins was a phenomenal actor. The Ezekiel character was meant to be very literal, obsessive, and mad. Not just any actor could pull that off like CA did here.
Damn. Adam looks good all sweaty and stuff.
Ohhh, your a sly one, I know about you bright boy!! Adam: How would like to shut your filthy mouth!! Priceless.....................
Craig Roberts what is your problem?
Adam is fine sweaty or not. I can say what I want to.
@@genettalacey2627 Its a line from this episode! I think you took it wrong................
Craig Roberts , then I'm sorry. I get out of joint when it comes to Adam. If I took it the wrong way then I apologize.
I remember back in the 1990's when guys were jealous if they caught you talking to their wives. Times are a lot worse now; Guys get jealous if they catch you talking to their dog.
The carpentry on that wheel etc was amazing. Love one in my back garden. A real work of art.
🙆🏼♀️ Aww i like Claude Akins better when he’s playing a
_”good guy!”_ 😬 But sadly that doesn’t happen often enough!
🤦🏼♀️😢😘
Adam was an engineer!
Adam was a Poet, Romantic and humble logical BadAss.....
Yep!
@@BigBand1942 Adam is a Poet, Romantic, Humble, Logical, Bad-Ass _Gentleman._
He was an architect.
I think Adam was supposed to be an architect.
This is one of my most favorite episodes.
Lady who plays Joyce couldn't have been a better choice. Hey, that rimes!
it makes me wanta puik
I think Ben may have been overstepping his boundaries on this one.
How many "old friends" does Ben have? He seems to have one every episode.
I thought that
Ben got around.
Thank God he does, what of it...you better hope you will too when you get old. His friends are miles away. Let's only hope when you need friends they will be close by. Let's hope you will be as good a friend he has been on this show.
@@patriciapetersscott5328 Ben's a good friend. But his friends aren't very good friends to him.
IKR?
IMO, the kissing scenes were well done on this one for sure!
Haha Ezekiel plays a great creep
*EDDIE P, EZEKIEL CERTAINLY DOES APPEAR TO BE A POS!*
He really does. By the end of this episode all ya wanna see is him hit the deck for good!!
Por fa pasen las en español no espikin inglish plis
theres an ep of gunsmoke with claud akins , hes a total schzo -nut who after a konk on the head is mr nice guy and becomes kittys "boyfriend" but then his true psycho nature comes out and matt hasta blow his head off
You know he is bad when you see his evil smile.
I enjoy watching Bonanza. How much better the show would have been if the Cartwright men would have married and children. According to the movie Bonanza Second Generation they did but the viewers never got to actually see it.
Claude Adkins- BJ and the Bear. Series from the early 80's
Akins, not Adkins
Sheriff Lobo
Love the brawl between Ben and Ezekiel ever since i was 7.
Why? It’s such poor acting.
🎶”My best friend’s wiiii-fey!”🎶 😉 ... BEN!! How _COULD_
_YOU?!?_ 🤷♀️🤦🏼♀️
Ben always breaks out the booze when the women come to visit.
Commenters please calm down about this being a """bomb""" episode==just be content with the fact that the heros HATS NEVER POP OFF when fighting*falling off thier horses*jumping in the rivers*!!!!
They should have milked their relationship for a couple of more episodes.
33:42, Ezekiel's laugh.
Look at me, I'm the Mr Edwards now.
Didyou know that Claude Akins was one actor Dortort originally considered to fill the role of Adam?
Thank heavens Pernell Roberts got the role. He was perfect in the role.❤❤
He bet his wife like a merchandise!
"Oh, let me kiss you !"
that part was weird
Im in love with Ben. Such a kind , gentle man. Wish i could find a man exactly like him, with the same looks. I think this episode was badly written.
Badly wrtn? Y u thnk tht?

Hilarious! If you look closely wth the blades on the wheel when they first drop it in palce, the wheel si on BACKWARDS...lol
I would stay with Ben have love and a great life
Love watching these but it seems like all they do is gallop and shoot, lol!
they shoot and gallop too
That's what cowboys were about; gallop, shoot, fist fighting and herding cattle. The Cartwrights were a special breed though. They seems to constantly fall in love with almost every skirt too. Still... Adam is my man.

More often than not, he plays the creepy dude. They sure got the ugly ones to play the villains.

That's the Rule of Status Quo known as the Cartwright Curse for you.
@@brendanforester4601 Actually, it's standard practice with TV programs. They don't want any drastic changes in the family dynamics, or the lack thereof.
@@bobbieschroder6231 I wasn't being entirely serious.
That's one of the reasons (Adam) Pernell Roberts left.

Plot twist; she’s leaving Ben to go to her childhood sweetheart
the no tell motel..
Ole' Ben gets duced again. Ben says, oh well, I'll just cower and head back to the freak ranch.
Joyce: i saw him bending over me with a carving knife!” 🔪
Ben: Joyce, surely you must know that Tom meant no harm!”
🙆🏼♀️ OMGOSH WTF are you _talking about_
Ben?! 🤷♀️ Sure sounded
*”harmful”* 😱 to me! Should be telling Joyce “you’re NEVER going back to live with that creep again! He may *KILL YOU*
next time! 😤🔪 Ben’s guilt is clouding ☁️ his judgement i think? 🤦🏼♀️
Just enjoy the episode! Your comments are not wise I have to say.

this stomach turner was bad enough but the end was too much , she says she loves ben , thats why she hasto go away ??? PROJECTILE VOMIT !!!!!!
Pretty lady
*6:50** BEN LEAVING ON HIS HORSE WITH NO COWBOY HAT! WHY?¿*
Cause it was hanging on the door. Brains 👉🤥
Cause everybody forgot to remind him.
As the blues.song goes what's the matter with mill
No way Ben Cartwright can beat up Claude Akins. No way.
Lousy title music .... 🤦🏻♂️
*1:25** SO HOP SING IS COOKING IN THIS VIDEO. GUESS HE MUST HAVE RETURNED FROM CHINA AND RELIEVED HIS 3RD COUSIN??¿¿*
Hip hop sing.......must have the most cousins of anyone in China LOL!!
It was his 1st cousin. But ig so😂😂
🙄 Ok, @1:35 did Joyce almost call Ben “Adam” 🤭 or did she say “oh *uh*
Ben ...”? 🤔 i’ve listened over
and over but 🤷♀️!
Help me decide?! 🙆🏼♀️
TY!! 🥰😘
I think that she was about to call him Adam. That is what it sounded like to me anyways!
No, I don't think so. She was trying to get a word in edgeways.
You've listened over and over? U need to get a life
AND?? You Jealous??
What is up with changing the original theme music? Did you believe that your music would be better fit for the Cartwright's? Well I don't think so.
I assume it has something to do with licensing laws. I could be wrong but it seems if you change something from the original then it's technically not "pirating." Responses from more knowledgeable viewers?
