You are correct, this episode was to be about Hoss's marriage. Dan Blocker's death led to the demise of this wonderful series. But at least they were able to honor Hoss in this episode.

I agree. It would have been so cool if Adam had returned for the wedding.

It's so nice to see one of the Cartwrights make it down the aisle at last, although I gather it wasn't to last! The fact that the original bridegroom was meant to be Hoss (before Dan Blocker's untimely death) just makes it SO sad. Thank you for posting.

And Chaparral,Lancer,Larado,Wagon Train,Laramie,The Virginian,The Rebel.All great series.

I have only seen this episode once in rerun. Would love to have all Bonanza seasons on dvd. Shame no Cartwright had happy marriages, they always ended as widowers :(

You know, I always liked Candy too. Thanks for the comment. Just so you know, Little Joe married in the first show of the final season. It didn't last long though, she died in part two of the show. The show was titled "Forever." Michael Landon wrote the show and I believe he directed it also.

I had forgotten this show was on for so long. A year or so later, they did the pilot for Little House, and he died his hair completely black. Then when that show finished up (going about 4 years too long!) he let himself go gray again. Then the very next year he started Highway to Heaven and was back to dark hair again. Very interesting. There are few actors that basically stated on TV in the same or different shows for so long. Gunsmoke comes to mind, but not many others.

Little Joe finally had happy ending got married great family values honest trustworthy brother

Eee Michael dosen't look joe Cartwright he looks Charles ingalls but without his hat!

I remember watching this when I was little. As I recall, Little Joe's wife died not long after they married, the Cartwright curse.

Saw Miss Bedelia in an L.A. theatre production of the "Glass Menagerie" 1970...that was love at first sight...:)

He had been coloring his hair for years, he admitted on a talk show that he was prematurely gray...pretty sure it was on Carson after the premeir of Little House.

Love Bonnie Bedelia on "Parenthood"! She's 65 now and still a beautiful woman!

I "knew" it a long time ago. There is unfortunately always possible to spoil it for yourself without intending to. I read the title at this video a decade ago, but I still have not watched it. If I ever find everything between season 9 and season 14, I will watch it all in order :)

A Cartwright asking you to marry them is the same as the grim reaper knocking on your door! You won't live long afterwords. My advice is to run and not look back.

On Bonanza, I believe it was just noted that he died, not how he died. According to the Bonanza next generation movies, Hoss died saving someone from drowning.

They should have gotten Adam to come back for one show for the wedding. They could have had a funeral service for Hoss with Adam there in the beginning.

thanks for posting this btw!

@cmsahe I've never seen the episode, but from what I've read, a two hour episode was written by Michael Landon to specifically deal with the death of Hoss. If I'm not mistaken, he drowned trying to save someone else.

They go on to raise 3 girls and a boy with good values but face hardships and challenges throughout life. He eventually dies and becomes an Angel. Him, his father, brothers, and children are never forgotten by loyal fans.

"The Strange Vengeance of Rosalie", a movie she starred in the same year she did this Bonanza episode. The outfit she was wearing in that movie when she was pumping air into a tire 👙 Smokin Hot was an understatement!❤

Is not shame to be gray is natural why people care so much of gray hair as long healthy handsome or Beautifull don't matter to me 😀❤

the original for this script was written for dan blocker but was rewritten for michael landon b/c of the death of dan

This episode of Bonanza aired today in 1972 on NBC. This would be Bonanza's final year on the air.

the first time I watched this episode, I was 13. Now I am 63.

somehow I think it'd be worth it though to be proposed to by a Cartwright! ;)

I remember seeing this episode when it first aired and being so disappointed that his wife was killed 20 minutes into it.

I am a big time Bonanza fan. Last christmas my family got me a Bonanza dvds. It has probably 15 episodes of Bonanza from TV shows. I'm sure they spent a good amount of money for it. The only bad thing is the quality of those dvds are very bad. I was very happy to receive that as a present. The only problem is the quality of pictures are very poor. I didn't realize that little Joe finally got married..hmm!

I remember this episode. Micheal Landon had discovered a young actor who attended the Univeristy of Arizona by the name of Robert Golden to appear in this episode as the heavy. What happened to golden after this show, i do not know. Did not see him again on any other program.

little Joe is soon cute

You would think word should have gotten out to stay clear of any relationships with the Cartwrights. All women are doomed. All the money they it couldn't keep any of them alive. That's T.V. shows for ya.

I wish ADAM was there just for wedding show there wasn't any brothers sad only friends & old father 😂😭😪😥😥
