Is it just me, or after well over 50 years from the original broadcasts of Bonanza (and multiple viewings), the episodes not only stand the test of time, but get better with age?
Big ol Hoss looked an Angel to that fever ridden little cutie, she was such a pretty little angel herself, and big ol Hoss simply felt his great big heart reachin into her heart and making her better with his heart and words of encouragement and love. And wouldn't cha know it, Hoss's words of encouragement a love worked that ol fever away and brought the tears of joy from the sky. Great Bonanza the home of the loving Cartwrights.
pity they did not have Micheal landons mom on the show- Peggy O'Neil.- Micheal says she a wild one growing up with in new york city. She problly taught Joe Cartright too punch folk in the shows.''
👍👌👏 Another great and really touching episode with and about Hoss. I swear that someone was peeling onions behind me. Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing this old series. Best regards luck and health.
If your reading this before the episode is finished, make sure you have some tissues for the end..! Another awesome episode..! Stay safe y'all n God bless.! Thanks Grjngo. 🤠🍺🍻🙏💪👍
I've been watching some of the early episodes again that I watched in the early 60's. Dan Blocker was always my favourite. I knew that the sheriff would tell Ben that the temperature on the thermometer was 98 degrees. I remembered that from 1963!
Dry weather . Hot climate everywhere. This hot weather made a devastating effect everywhere. This story is about artificial rain making. After a long awaited time rain came. Korbe Green and Dan Blocker gave outstanding performance. This story touched my heart. Fantastic story. Western Classics.❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
What makes this series so great is the amazing characterizations. The family are played so well, and so consistently, that you can't help but believe they are real. And this is a credit to the writers as well. I have no doubt that even with a pile of different writers, Blocker, Roberts, etc. probably modify every script, to make sure the characters play consistently for every episode.
@@PointyTailofSatan He got tired of the banal social irrelevance of trite scripts . Have a wikipedia read to see how angry he became with Bonanza. He was too much of a serious actor for this sort junk TV.
Phil Selzer's remark below is just perfect! Ben always knows the right path to take. It frightens me how primitive medicine was in the West of the USA at that time: in Europe, medicines for typhoid and other high fevers were already becoming known in those same years.
@Joe Owens. I'm impressed Joe!! You know your history. It is too bad that Europe was ahead of America for having medicines for Typhoid fever and other fevers. America also took a very long time to have medicines for rare diseases. I'm glad that I didn't live back then because if I had I would have died at a young age. You're right about Ben Cartwright. He instilled moral values in his sons which is why Hoss took Mary Beth without hesitating to the ranch house to take care of her immediately. He knew enough to quarantine her and him in a room and have Joe bring what he needed by a contraption where Joe didn't get near the little girl. What you said was well said. Hoss had such a big heart ❤! That was such an awesome ending. Ben was exactly correct. God is the real rainmaker.
As I remember, this show was programmed on Sundays. Perfect time slot for late Sunday school. The themes espoused on many shows had a bit of G-D connectivity.. "I believe in the Rainmaker---the one you PRAYED to last night to help Mary Beth." The power of prayer. And angels come in all forms. When Mary Beth asks Hoss: "Are you an angel." How did she know, and have the humility to thank him. On the other hand her father was too proud, and transmitted this feeling to his son..."we're hill people and take no charity." I remember something about the "proud before the fall." Charity is man's ability to help one another...doingG-D's work. With such themes, with a good-hearted family, writers, actors and production people is is NO wonder that the show enjoyed a very long on TV. The values, Good Old American-Judeo-Christian values, seem to be lacking in the products coming out of Hollywood these days...note the declining viewership of the various self-congratulatory awards shows. And some of the actors/actresses of today seem "too proud," have the hubris that they, that we can affect "global warming, global cooling, climate change..." They said that melting artic ice would cause a rising of the seas, etc. Phooey, recent scientific data has shown that the ice pack has increased!!! Who changes the climate?? G-D does. I believe that the rain came before Adam's water wagons. Thanks Grjngo.
not only did the rain come before Adam's water wagons, but the ponderosa has a miles long access to Lake Tahoe. I've never heard of Lake Tahoe drying up in recorded history.
Little Girl: Are you an angel? Hoss: *shakes his head* Little Girl: I guess you’re not an angel. Angels ain’t got no whiskers. Me: He stayed up with her without shaving. So you’re wrong. He *is* an angel!
Where have the people like Ben Cartwright gone? The people who display logic, understanding, compassion, humility, confidence, self awareness, reasonable and kindness? People that used to exist in greater numbers. There definately aren't many left. When you are one you often walk alone and I feel more alone than ever. I learnt long ago that there aren't many left, but with the World gone crazy, we need people to start thinking about bringing these things out of themselves and take a hold of reality, not some percieved nonsense that so many are making up in thier heads.
You mean the Ben Cartright who during this episode seems to have forgotten that his ponderosa shares a 30 mile border with Lake Tahoe and that all he had to do was go and get water out of the lake instead of sending Adam somewhere to get wagon loads of water?
@@bluebird2604 No not just the parents... We our chosen society teaches all of us to be selfish. Selfishness is a very marketable commodity nowadays. And many nowadays have made fortunes off of it.
A HORSESHOE & A HUMMINGBIRD? I TRULY BELIEVE IT. DAN BLOCKER HAS BEEN THE CORNERSTONE OF MANY POIGNANT MOMENTS IN THE SERIES. TRULY A CHARACTER LOST TOO SOON.('72)
That is some poetic writing if ever!!!!!! So beautiful! Thank you for bring that out! I believe it fits his true person when he was alive. Just think when we go to heaven and in the new Earth everyone there will be loving and kind like JESUS.
The kid won't accept charity but he will break into his barn and threaten to kill a man? Nice values you have kid... not! Nothing wrong with accepting charity. Sometimes people need help they will never be able to repay, and there is nothing wrong with that.
The boy was a little brat and I'm surprised Joe was able to keep his patience, especially when he started insulting Hoss. He should have taken the gun from him and kicked him in the arse. You get this quite a few times in Bonanza. "We don't accept no charity, but we're perfectly willing to steal from you." !
@@CathyKitson not so different from now.. Societal standards, pride then, virtue signaling now. People wanting to appear up to snuff, whether the society value is entirely real or not. Some people are always in a mask, many are. They have a choice of what face, what mask to put on. And some public faces are less bad than others. Self actualized ones drop masks. But at times they still retain manners, which is almost another type mask - at least a societal contract.
Typhoid fever And Diptheria (I Remember Watching An Episode Of My Three Sons Where One Of Robbies Classmates On The Wrestling Team Had Diptheria Everyone Was Quarantined Except Steve And Mike I Guess Hoss And The Little Girl Had To Quarantine Their Selves So She Can Feel Better
Joe is so patient, that boy is getting on my last nerve and when he talks about Hoss like that, I want to get his behind😄talking about..we hill people, we don't no charity but rolled up and planted theirselves in someone else's barn..ugh that boy!
Oh, tell me about it. I thought I was the only one. If I'd been Joe, I'd have spanked that boy flat. There's his brother, risking his life to save that girl, and the boy's threatening everyone with a shotgun.
My guess is there are Ben Cartwrights everywhere they just don’t get any press. And yes through all of the mess that we all have been brought up in has lowered the spirit of so many people. But when I read comments from many of the shows and movies that carry the honor and compassion for life tell me that there are more people with these precious qualities then we are led to believe. When the world starts up again we’re going to take off where the 50s left off. But this time we’re gonna get it right.
But you can tell that he’s living in a fancy that he thinks that he can try and force it to rain but in reality you can’t make it rain as hard as you try you can’t make it rain
yes. you don't need the water wagons because your ranch has 3 miles of lake tahoe beach. It's a fresh water lake. Good drinking water! Good water to make grass grow for the cows.
In so many of these shows Adam has virtually no role. He shows up at the beginning or the end. I wonder if this was his way of phasing out of the show.
There are enough episodes with not all four of them. Everyone of them had episode were 1 is the hero. This one is about Hoss. There are also ones with adam the cruisible the jack knife a knight to rember the toy soldier ect.
He left cause he thought three grown men being treated like young kids by his father made no sense. His words from an interview I did read looong time ago.
I am sure they did their best. Bonanza was made in an other time. It was even produced in color to promote the sale of color televisions. Hard to comprehend today ...
I know the hill folks were ignorant ;but it just annoyed the heck out of me how ungrateful to the Cartwright's the mom and son acted.It's an example of how sinful self-righteous pride can be. If Hoss hadn't been so assertive and demanding about caring for the girl she would have surely died.
Rainmaker played by John Anderson. I'm sure it's not the same guy who campaigned for the US presidency back in 1980 versus both Carter and Reagan, scoring ZERO electoral votes.
The obvious initial solution rather than spending money on charity was to pay him half now so that he can take care of his family and half if he makes it rain, but then we wouldn't have a story... Ben knows enough to isolate the girl but not the rest of the family because it would interrupt the story.
Funny, that as we grow, age and change- how different brothers come to appeal to us. Kind of soft on Hoss now- so sweet and kind.
I think that way also. Have a soft spot for Hoss. I paid more attention when I was 7 to Adam and Little Joe,especially Adam❤❤
Is it just me, or after well over 50 years from the original broadcasts of Bonanza (and multiple viewings), the episodes not only stand the test of time, but get better with age?
Judging from the amount of people who watch and comment, it obviously isn't just you.
@@AndrewVelonis Right. It's just that I found myself watching these episodes several times. That's rare for me.
I'm 39 and have just started watching bonanza in the last few years and all I can say is I sure wish life really was like this show.
@@ModernAdventures-w1u That's the truth right here👍🏻
Just like wine! (In Haus accent)
Hoss put tears in my eyes with his kindness every time.
Ben might have been the patriarch but Hoss was the boss.
This episode made me think of how it is today-everyone so ready to believe in anything but God.
Yea i believe God did send that rain not that guy!

John Anderson, who played the Rainmaker, was such a good actor and played a great part in this episode. Many thanks for for sharing this 🙏🏻
Keith Davidson Wasn't he the Rainmaker, in Gunsmoke too?
I saw John Anderson play bad guys in westerns often.
He played a lot of characters in the Rifleman.
I love the ponderosa at night especially with the lights on
I sometimes wonder if the Ponderosa scenes are filmed in a studio.
Why? With lights on?

Even at high school, Dan Blocker was 6'4" and weighed 300 pounds. His schoolfriends said he was very good-natured. So quite like Hoss, really.
So there is a drought. Everything is dry, dry, dry. So, yes, lets set off fireworks to bring rain. Great idea.

The cartwrights had plenty of water coming out of that pump and even cold lemonade!
I sure miss the old days where man actually lived in the real world and associated and did things without technology.
If they wanted it to rain why didn't they just wash their horse?

In so many of these shows Adam has virtually no role. He shows up at the beginning or the end. I wonder if this was his way of phasing out of the show.
He thought he was too good an actor for TV shows.
So right. I hardly see him. Only now do I realize that Michael Landon was made to be the Star.

@12:50 good to hear Hoss's theme, even if it was only 2 bars long. Was Hoss the only character on Bonanza to have his own theme music?
