I wonder if he ever imagined years after he passed people would still be watching and thinking about him
The integrity that men like Lorne Greene had is sorely lacking in television today. He was pure class and I could listen to him talk all day.
This is what a man is and should be,

I don't think there will ever be another actor like Lorne Greene.
He was 100% correct Hollywood have a responsibility but they lost it too long ago.

@@redpine8665 even back when Mr Greene came here it was just as bad as now. The difference is then they knew to keep things private and where the line they couldn't cross was. Now it's inflated ego's thinking they're talking to the rabble.

Fine gentleman and great actor. That era of TV is sadly long gone.
What a lovely man.
I wasn t born when bonanza was on tv. But Sir LORNE GREEN was and is the best father and mother four his bonanza sons.the best father in the world❤❤❤❤❤
I'm here one time ONLY, i want to feel what i did encourage others to do good. What a change from how todays celebs use their platform .
Simply one of the best
My late paternal Grandmother Getrude Esther Shuster OBM knew the late Lorne Greene aka Haim actually KNEW him back in Ottowa, Canada. They were in the Yiddish Club together back in the day. I wish I could have had the opportunity to meet this amazing 'old school' actor. From what my late grandmother told me..he (Mr. Haim aka Lorne) was a wonderful human being. As they say...She was 'Salt of the Earth'
Lorne crossed my mind today; I really miss him. A fine man and actor.
Bonanza was incredible, I was born in 1973, the year it ended. I watch it regularly whenever I feel low, lorne greene was the quintessential father figure.
Deep man...not just his voice...soulful man

A nice way of putting it.
What a class and generous man . Real gentleman with enough masculinity and voice
Lorne Greene was, and still is, an inspiration to us all, a Light to guide us through the darkness of life. God bless him!
Lorne Green sums it all up. The levels of morality responsibility and sense of being human is unbelievable. I think every episode has an invaluable lesson on life. Respect for life, the law and the environment was very high on their agenda.. the cast carried it off beautifully.. those were the days!!!!

Lorne Greene, a great actor and also A GREAT HUMAN BEING. He was the strength of The Ponderosa. The power of BONANZA. In these troubled times we are needed of men like him and Michael Landon. Forever in our hearts. FOREVER PA BEN!!!!
Still watch bonanza A really great show. Miss all the bonanza People. Very special show. R.I.P. all of you. Ron
Thank you for posting this. Not everyone had a dad hooked on being home at I think 8 pm every Sunday night on CBC to watch Bonanza. For those of us whose dad did have that commitment. We watched Lorne and he helped shape my morals. I think he did a pretty great job. A kind and generous person, a Canadian
Lorne Greene was a gentleman and a fine human being. Hollywood needs more people like this. I'm also proud of the fact he was a fellow Canadian. RIP, Mr Greene.
Good ol’ Lorne Green, May he Rest In Peace. Ben Cartwright was a badass before the term even existed.
Love bonanza.😍😍😍
Bonanza taught me about morality, integrity, and true family values. The show impacted on me as a youth. I have all the copies. David Dortort the producer had a vision which he made a realization.RIP. TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO...the Paradise of the world.
There will never be another Lorne Greene..such a great man
What a wonderful human being, blessings 👐
Excelente actor!!
....Had forgotten about Alpo dog food commercials. A Dear Great Man In television & real life Indeed !
Love! Forever💖💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹
One of my favorite actors.
What a lovely man
Masterly acted as Ben cartwright, his voice was also much as a match to the need to act as a matured and seasoned rich gentleman who also is a father grooming three sons
A very interesting, talented, intelligent, and funny person.
we going to remember you lorne green forever on our hearts
Will always love him!
Grande ator. Excelente ser humano.
Maravilhoso espetacular, da minha infancia.Adoroooo.
one of my favorite actors. He will always be Ben and Adama to me.
Tenho 57 anos e sempre assisto Bonanza. Lembro -me de minha infância. Minha mãe assistia comigo e o meu irmão. Eu era apaixonada pelos atores. Naquela época eu queria que o Lorne Green fosse meu pai. Sonhos de criança. ❤❤
NA MINHA CIDADE, HAVIA NA ÉPOCA POUCOS APARELHOS DE TV. EU IA ASSISTIR BONANZA NA CASA DE AMIGOS. LÁ TODOS OS GAROTOS SENTAVAM NO CHÃO DA SALA PARA VER. UM SERIADO INESQUECÍVEL...! O QUE APRENDIAMOS COM BONANZA ERA: RESPEITO....HONRADEZ...AMOR A FAMÍLIA....SERIEDADE.....(ENFIM) BONANZA ESTÁ VIVO AINDA NOS NOSSOS CORAÇÕES.
He is my all time favorite actor.
Ben, you were like a good father figure to me when growing up and I still watch the old episodes to this day.

I loved Lorne Greene and miss him ❤😢.
Man of integrity and good principles. It's a good thing however he hasn't lived long enough to see how things are now. Hoooo boyyy. Everything he talks about is the opposite of what flies today in the US.
Wonderful man. They don't make them like that anymore.
Watching Lorne Greene's interview for the first time. Came to check here after watching his amazing role in one of the Hardy Boys' episodes. I found his personality very intriguing and after seeing this I am convinced. He also comes across as a thought provoking and generous individual.
This explains a lot. I'm not a young man, but I'm "younger" so I decided to binge watch Bonanza during the lockdown. One thing I definitely noticed and would point out to my dad (who grew up watching Bonanza) was the high level of violence during the first season, getting away with things you couldn't do outside of a TV-MA rating today. I also noticed that tpne change dramatically through the second season and evolve into the show that Bonanza is known to be. But that first season was something else!
Now I know Lorne Greene and Ben Cartwright were spiritually the same guy...I mean, after he told producer David Dortort to change some stuff, Greene played himself on screen.
He spoke with a purpose and wisdom He did not like violence but love !!!
I wish I had known him.
Fun fact Inga Swenson who played "Inger Cartwright" in the bonanza episode "Inger my love" (1962) got reunited with Lorne Greene, in "griff" (1973) after 11 years imagine how fun it was they had a good chemistry many good actor's and actresse's from sweden.
What a beautiful man you are greatly missed by everyone
I knew that in his very sinew was some of the finest human characteristics to be found.
Now it make since! This is where all the man crushing came from!
LORNE GREENE: YOU AND YOUR CHARACTER WAS A FATHER FIGURE TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA'S SONS !!! AND I'M STILL WATCHING AND LEARNING AT 55... RIP .. . PAW... WHAT A GOD GIVEN LEGACY TO LEAVE THE SONS OF MEN !! YOU AND YOUR WRITERS ARE A LEGACY.
Ben Cartwright from Bonanza. Lorne Greene will be missed. Michael Landon will be too. I have seen all three of Michael Landon's TV programs from Bonanza to Little House On The Prairie to his last TV program Highway To Heaven. Lorne Greene will always be Ben Cartwright from Bonanza to me.
RIP OUR UNFORGETTABLE BEN CARTWRIGHT
RESPEKT AN H LORNE GREENE !!!
Quite the example of what a man should be.
He reminds me of uncle iroh
Ich liebe ben ueber alles
Blood on the land was the episode where you seen the change in the Cartwright temperament towards trespassers on the ponderosa with Adams encouragement
Alpo used to be thought to be a high quality premium brand of dog food . Now dogs eat better than many people .
1:57, I bet Lorne Greene would be outraged and ashamed if he saw what TV is like today in 2022!

I like Lorne, but I actually liked the edgier early episodes better. I didn't like it when it morphed toward sappiness.
If I'd had lorne greene for a father, I might not have killed those three people.
and now we have the kardashians, and those fake reality shows...So, sad what happened to tv
The first Bonanzas were stupid.
No mention of God , a pity .
