I was really waiting for that to happen in that last gunfight.

Love can happen at first sight. It did for me too. Over 48 years ago I fell sight on in love with my husband. We tell our great grandchildren the story of how we met. I was at the feed store with my Poppa loading up bags of grain for the cattle back on the farm. I went to get an orange pop from the red cooler on the porch and it spilled all over the place down the sidewalk , it was a slippery mess. My husband to be was walking past and dressed in his air force uniform, coming home on leave from the bus station in town. We both slipped in the mud and couldn't stop laughing. Poppa invited him home to supper. Next weekend he was helping bale hay on the farm, kissed me under the apple tree. A month later we were married. We were made for each other.

Hoss was never given the chance of very much, so underrated use of a great person. Anyone who would turn down someone like Hoss would need their head looked, he was 1 in a million

If you don’t have any feelings of love for a person is that still turning down, why would he marry her if he didn’t have feelings of love for her, it’s better to say no, then marriage with no love.

From his side, Hoss was a gentleman with a highly moral, he had an honest mission to accomplish and he did it in a right way. God Bless honest people. R.I.P. Hoss Judi Meredith (lotty) was born in 1936 in Portland and passed away in 2014 at the age of 77 years old. R.I.P. Judi

A very bittersweet episode. However, it showed the finest qualities of Hoss's character. He was kind, gentle, loyal and considerate to a fault. In many respects, he was the noblest of the Cartwrights and very much like Lotty's imagined medieval knights. The ending was surprisingly unsaccharine for a TV series of its time. And, as always, Bonanza was well-scripted, acted and directed. Many thanks!

Man does Hoss beat around the bush!! Right from the start he was off on the wrong foot, wooing her in his own unassuming way when he was strictly on business. he even volunteered for the job, its not like Prescott asked him to go. And the gal sure does assume things. And for someone who lived in a hovel and entered into a bargain eyes wide open, she was darn lucky to land a man like Prescott. Sure he was blinded by jealousy and was a bit of a cad about Hoss, but hes otherwise a perfectly eligible bachelor and many women in her position would have considered themselves lucky to land him. She was just a feather headed child who made many glaring mistakes and nearly got Hoss killed. She herself got away with her life had Hoss taken a fancy to her. And while the likes of Bertram Wooster may have been railroaded into engagements ( he managed to get out of them thanks to Jeeves) out of their innate inability to let a woman down, this case was clearly different. She was spoken for and he had a clear mission. I dont think the pair particularly shine in this episode.
