DVD Reviews of Best of Bonanza (34 episodes)

I absolutely love this video. It is wholesome, entertaining and great for the whole family! The quality and sound of each dvd is great! It is a true gem of the past that can be watched many times.

DVD Review: Terrible Quality
Summary: 1 Stars

First time I have ever ordered anything off of Amazon and not gotten a quality product. The DVD doesn't even work.

DVD Review: Review of "The Best Of Bonanza
Summary: 5 Stars

Considering the age of the original material, these episodes are as well recorded as they can be, with only minor parts which are slightly less than optimum quality.

DVD Review: A Great Buy
Summary: 5 Stars

Like many people have said, the Bonanza episodes in this set are all available for free online, and the opening theme music is much different than the original. But so what? It's not the manufacturer's fault that the music is different, and the same will be the case with every episode of Bonanza you watch or buy (unless it's being aired on TV). Even online and even on other DVDs the opening music is not what Bonanza fans have come to expect, but the issue there is with copyright. People complaining only about the music shouldn't rate this product with one or two stars, since every version of Bonanza in the public domain has the same music. And as for the episodes being available for free: Why not just pay $10 to have all 34 episodes at your disposal instead of wasting time loading each episode, waiting for it to buffer, getting interrupted by ads, and viewing it in piss-poor quality with a screen several times smaller?

What you see here is what you get: There's no fancy booklet or behind-the-scenes features, but 34 solid episodes from a great show is worth every penny. The DVDs are great and play well, and the quality is what you would expect if you were watching it on TV. The packaging protects each disc and they're easy to take out and replace. An episode guide on the back of the case tells you exactly what disc has which episodes, and simple menus make navigating easy. I will mention that subtitles are not available, and while this doesn't bother me, I know it will make or break the deal for others.

I highly recommend this product for anyone who is a fan of Bonanza and who won't start crying when they discover the opening theme is different.

DVD Review: the very best value in my library
Summary: 5 Stars

i love this very well written , acted and produced show . i'm not even seven episodes in and i feel it's my best investment in a library of hundreds of film and t. v. programs . just $6.00 at the "LOTS" . if you're fond of the show , don't miss this opportunity . ***** stars .

Description of Best of Bonanza (34 episodes)

The Cartwright's thousand-square-mile Ponderosa Ranch is located near Virginia City, Nevada, site of the Comstock Silver Lode, during and after the Civil War. Each of the sons was born to a different wife of Ben's; with none of the mothers still alive. Join Ben (Lorne Greene), Adam (Pernell Roberts), Hoss (Dan Blocker) and Little Joe (Michael Landon) as they rewrite the book on the western genre. These were the days where family values and the fight for justice were backed up by six-guns that always had right on their side. Included in this set are three bonus episodes of the classic TV western Wagon Train.
