Yes but the show was on the steady decline even before blockers death

Dan Blocker was not only an amazing talented actor, but he was also the most highly educated actor on set. A Masters Degree. His contributions to this series is exactly why it was continuously rated high among other TV shows of that era. All the main original actors were fantastic. I believe had Blocker not pass away and Robert's stayed on board, this show would've ran easily 6 to 8 more seasons. Making it historically the longest ever TV show in television history. Still, 14 seasons is no easy deal. Especially since its two most popular characters had to be written out. I love Hoss. How can you not love Blockers characterizations of his most famous character. The gee shux soft hearted big guy with a heart equally as huge. The man made this series work. Yet, all four original series characters really worked so well together, that by the end of season one, its as if they'd been together for 10 or more seasons already. Blocker smoked and was a life long Democrat of the old school type. He was the real deal. Generous beyond the very definition of the word. A great husband, father, friend. His legacy is indeed as big as the man was himself.

Dan Blocker was a true big hearted Texan and if I am correct was the largest baby ever born in DeKalb, Tex. Where he, his sister and mom and dad are buried. We visited their graves a few years ago...plain as plain can be. You would never know a famous man and his family are buried there. I would have chosen Hoss for my “Bonanza” husband...he was one of a kind.

When Adam left, I basically stopped watching. It's like his character had died, and was never recognized as doing so. I watched maybe a couple of episodes, but his empty chair at the dining room table was too much for this young fan ! Funnily enough, whenever Bonanza has been released on DVD, sales drop RIGHT OFF after the sixth season - Adam's last one - and few companies releasing them will keep going on for the rest of the seasons for that reason : just not worth the investment for the sales returns. I'm not surprised. Adam was way more popular than they'll ever admit to. :)

The actual final episode of Gunsmoke, broadcast March 31, 1975, was about a family who struggle to get their crops planted before they're evicted. Lead character Marshal Matt Dillon (James Arness) just barely appears. By this time, the show had slipped to #23 in the ratings but no one at CBS ever mentioned to the cast that the end would be a possibility.

I loved this episode of Bonanza. This episode showed Michael Landon's talent as an actor and as a writer and a director. He and Tom Skerritt played the scenes between the two of them very well in this episode. There are two things that I would have done differently if I were writing and directing this episode. I would have had one more fight scene with Michael Landon as Little Joe. Michael Landon's fight scenes on Bonanza were the best. I would have had one more to remember him by as Little Joe. And, I would have found a way to put Lorne Greene as Ben in the final scene. I would have loved to have seen one more Pa and Little Joe moment. Otherwise, this was a good episode.

The show was never good after Dan Blocker died. He was truly the heart and soul of the show. He was the glue. Dan Blocker was an educated true family man that played Hoss to a tee and made him seem to epitomize strength, compassion, family, and integrity.

It was not the same without the originals the hunter was not my favorite.bonaza will always live in our hearts.

Bonanza was never the same without Dan Blocker however Michael Landon did well. Having recently watched the entire 14 seasons of Bonanza and then Little House (Covid lockdown) I realised the studio must of have a vast amount of the same material as many woman wore it in Bonanza and then Laura’ s grown up dress in Little House and much more. Plus in Bonanza they used the same clothes all the time and I lost count of one dress being worn from season one to season thirteen! Bonanza was a staple Saturday afternoon series in the UK but I was grown up and doing my registered nurse training when little house came out. So watching it now at the age of 67 was interesting. I am afraid I did not like Highway to Heaven but each to their own. However Bonanza and the chemistry between the main stars was magical and was glad to have seen it when I was young and now as I get older. That childhood I had was very happy and loved by my parents so sitting watching a western with my father was wonderful (I was a bit of a Tomboy). I would love to believe if there is a heaven that the Bonanza boys are still playing the Cartwrights once again.

Well done overview! Think that Victor Sen Yung, loyal to that role since 1959, should have at least had a line or two. Same with Canary, who carried numerous episodes on his own. But Bonanza ended in 1/73 not 1/74.

Actually I cant remember ever seeing that episode? After "Forever" I kind of lost interest in the show. Adam had left, now Hoss was gone, without much concern from the show being projected in my opinion, I kind of got the feeling they should have wrapped it at that. I'm sure many Hoss Fans felt the same? He certainly, in my opinion, deserved a lot more than a brief picture appearance in that episode. Little Joe remained one of my favorite actors in his future shows but to me Bonanza died with Hoss.

Note in 14 season of bonanza it was only a half season it was cancelled in January of THAT year six more episodes were written never done they had originally wanted a last show a two hour movie

Nice

Bonanza ended considerably before series finales even started to become commonplace. However, on occasion producers or writers would insert a final sendoff salute to a particular series, if only a subtle one. A prime example of this happened at the *very* end of the final Star Trek episode (original series), 'Turnabout Intruder'. Did anyone out there spot it?

Bonanza was cancelled in the middle of the season. "The Hunter" was never meant to be the last episode. There were probably several more scripts that they had yet to do before the season ended.

I loved Bonanza! Also Wagon Train, Laramie, Gunsmoke, Branded and of course the Lone Ranger! I grew up wanting to be a cowboy, which was rather difficult here in the UK. Living on pig farms but I had some great locations to act out my imaginary gunfights and 'stunts'. When my dad moved over from pig farming to cattle when I was eight years old, I got the chance to actually 'Head 'em up and move 'em out!' (all the way to the dairy for milking!). I never burnt a map in the name of my Bonanza moments, But show me a big puddle or a stream and I had to gallop through it! (no horse of course!) and in Gloucetershire from the age of three, I discovered my 'Hi Ho Hills' for when I was the Lone Ranger!

THE Central Banks owned and or controlled 25 % when they started in 1913. The Central Banksters are the head of the Snake, Globalism is their Agenda. Socialism is currently being brought into Countries around the world via Country leaders. Next comes Communism.

I don’t recall watching the final episode.

When i was in High School we read a short story called "The Most Dangerous Game". This plot of one man hunting another goes all the way back to Greek plays. Every drama will get to some variation of it sooner or later. The Gunsmoke version has a whole family of muleskinners led by the great Morgan Woodward as a mad patriarch. As a episode for Bonanza its one of the best. As a finale for such a classic show it is poor but sadly Bonanza died a slow death. They survived and even thrived after losing Adam. The show took a bad turn when they added Mitch Vogel in my opinion. His character was weak and his talent limited. He always seems to be reading and not speaking his part. Two dimentional at best. Then the death of Dan Blocker took the heart out of the show. i must ask, did they know it was the end or like Gunsmoke got cancelled without the casts knowledge?

I'm at 3rd place

Ive never watched it

IMO when Dan Blocker DIED., Bonanza as we know it died with him. BONANZA turned into Little House on The Prairie before that show started. The show became more about the townspeople than what was left of the CARTWRIGHTS

Was it understood that this was the final episode by Michael Landon and others, or was it a last minute move by NBC to cancel the series? If it was more of a last minute decision, it might explain why the episode was not typical for a series ending.

The Hunter was not the last episode filmed and the cast didn't know the show had been cancelled when they shot the last episode

it would have been nice to have as many cast members involved as possible. However; no real complaint here; It was what it was.

It’s an Occurrence At Owl Creek, for Landon. Everyone has already been murdered, on the Ponderosa, except for Landon. Landon is unaware of what happened, when he encounters the hunter. The hunter murders Landon, at the campsite, and everything that follows, the chase, his thoughts about the family, etc, all took place, in Landon’s head, as his life fades, after being mortally wounded. It was also meant to leave an warm, empty place in the viewers hearts, to ponder what could have happened to the Cartwright’s. Whatever happened to that family, on the Ponderosa? Tails from the trail, legends, and hyperbole.

Actually I think the hunter was one of the best episodes ever I really enjoyed it I also like the episode where Hoss spent the night with that African-American family that was one of the best episode’s to

I saw this episode on MeTV recently, not realizing it was the final episode. It looks like they didn't know it would be the final episode. As a few people have commented, the show was cancelled after this was filmed or telecast.

They should have given the series closure by having Joe get married at the end and make it look like they lived happily ever after. Instead they had him get married at the beginning of season 14 only to have his wife get killed by bad guys. The Hunter episode should have been just before the final episode with Joe getting married.

How did they miss this? The main character, Arness, played by Matt Dillon... They got it backwards.

Not my preference for ending the show. Bonanza was based on family, and although it was never the same without Dan Blocker, I think the final episode should have included Ben Cartwright at least.

Correct me if I am wrong, the character of Candy was brought on the show after Pernell left. He would leave the show after a pay dispute with producers. Michael asked him to return in the final season after the death of Dan Blocker. I wished that the final season was devoted to the hunt for the murderers of Hoss Cartwright and Pernell with Guy Williams, Will Cartwright, would return to help in the hunt. Alas, Hoss would became a drowning victim in Bonanza: The Return.

That would've been awesome by 2020 standards. Gotta look at the world the way it was in 1973: everyone still thought that the Wild West was a simpler time, but they must've forgotten it wasn't called the "Wild" West for no reason. So when everyone found out Dan Blocker died, and imagine if you were told that Hoss was murdered and that Ben, Joe, and Jamie were gonna avenge Hoss and Adam, Candy, Joe's half-brother and Will would be returning, it doesn't quite make sense, as the Cartwrights are not vengeful people. Ben didn't go after Elizabeth's father for trying to stop them from having Adam, right? Ben didn't go and get all angry and kill whatever killed Inger, did he? Although I'm sure Ben would be heartbroken, I doubt that he would be motivated to go after him... But Joe would. And he might just talk Griff and Candy into going with him. So, I guess if you wanted to do this angle, Joe, Candy, and Griff would be the ones to avenge Hoss, while Adam, Jamie, and Ben are trying to stop them. But once again, too 2020 for 1973 standards

I need to see the episode before making comments. I am not looking forward to the last episode anyway. Without Dan Blocker, it could be boring.

Saguaro cactus are found exclusively in the Sonoran Desert, in southern Arizona and western Sonora, Mexico. Why film where they would be in a shot, when the series took place around Lake Tahoe/Virginia City. "transported back to the old west", only because so many old westerns were filmed in Old Tuscon, so a lot of people just assume they grew all over the west. Howard Hawks classic film, Rio Lobo was filmed there. NOT typical of ANY other arid areas of the old west. Westerns continue to be filmed in Old Tuscon, but modern directors avoid showing Saguaros in a shot if the film takes place elsewhere.

They should of done a tribute to dan blocker but there was one episode where this guy son died in a accident and the father was trying to revenge his son's death I think Jamie was in evolved I don't remember but ben Cartwright runs up to the angry father and says I know how you feel I lost a son a while back to but revenge isn't the answer but that was the only time I remember hearing ben Cartwright mentioned hoss death

The Incredible Hulk had a similar episode called "The Snare".

Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?

I was very disappointed in the last episode. i loved every episode of bonanza but this didn’t cut it.

I did not like this episode of Bonanza. "The Hunter" wasn't supposed to the "finale" as it aired in January, the middle of the season. Back then when a TV show was cancelled it was not widely announced. At best there would be a notation in the TVGuide magazine "last episode of the series". The death of Dan Blocker had a profound effect on the cast and crew. Lorne Greene, in an interview, said they didn't want to capitalize on his death and so there was no episode to deal with it. There was no story to explain what happened to Hoss, just a vague reference to him being gone. The cast and crew were all in mourning, but so was the audience. If they had done a story about Hoss's death complete with a funeral and flashbacks it may have given some closure. The show might have found new footing and been able to recover. As it was, the entire season 14 was dark and heavy because everyone involved in the creative process was in mourning. "The Hunter" was just one more dark and heavy episode. It was horrible.

It should be the main character Dillon played by Arness. You got it backwards.

Yes, I agree with the last person's post. Hoss was my favorite , and I stopped watching when he was gone.

No it shouldn,t ended like that.What happened to little joe in the final episode.

How is everybody day

@@FactsVerse good

it was too gruesome for us little kids to watch. The TV got turned off. They couldve had little Joe get married or Adam come home with a wife and little ones.

9:40 AUDIO CORRECTION : James Arness ( real life name) '' played Matt Dillon ''......not the other way around. SLOW down, get the facts in, FIRST. SIR

There really was no series finally. In an interview with Lorne Greene, they all showed up for work one day and were the last to find out that they were canceled.

James Arness found out about Gumsmoke's cancelation in the paper. They didn't have a final episode.

This person needs more interest in telling a story the people acting in the show deserve to be remerbed and Micheal Landon was a real treat to watch he could capture even people who said they did not like westerners Please learn the carectors the story is about before trying to read what and who they are

I had been watching Bonanza since I was a little girl about 4 or 5 and unfortunately I was disappointed in the Finale Don’t get me wrong Michael Landon did a great job but the other cast members should have been included at the end of the episode

Never saw it.

I enjoyed Bonanza through the whole series until the finale episode I felt the Lorne Greene and Mitch Vogel should have been at the end when Joe comes safely home again And I missed David Canary and Tim Matheson in the episode too

Didn't know that was the final episode. Don't like that. Think it would've been better with all them together.

are you sleeping, are you sleeping...

Bonanza ended in January of 1973, not January of 1974. Little House On The Prairie started in September of 1974, not in March. of that year. You should check your Facts... Verse.
