DVD Reviews of BonanzaDVD Review: Excellent two disc set of Bonanza ! Summary: 5 Stars
On these DVDs are 8 very entertaining episodes (on two double-sided discs) from the first two seasons of Bonanza, they are:1. Escape To The Ponderosa. 2. The Ape 3. The Bloodline 4. Death At Dawn 5. Blood On The Land 6. Badge Without Honor 7. Day Of Reckoning 8. Desert Justice. The visual quality of these 8 episodes is excellent, the audio quality is also very good. More importantly, the original Bonanza theme is featured on these DVDs, which is important as some other companies releasing Bonanza on DVD (such as Platinum Disc and Madacy) feature a generic western theme. The Ape features a young Leonard Nimoy in an early role 6 years before achieving fame as Spock in Star Trek, you can also catch a young Claude Akins in Desert Justice as a U.S. Marshall. While watching these episodes it occurred to me that the late Lorne Greene seemed born to play Ben Cartwright, he is so good in that role, Michael Landon, Pernell Roberts, and Dan Blocker are also very good in roles that seemed to be tailor-made for them. In short, if you're a true Bonanza fan, you can't go wrong with this DVD set!
Description of BonanzaIt was on September 12 1959 that Bonanza first appeared on television. In an interesting twist on the usual trivia this show originally was intended as a vehicle to sell color TV sets! RCA the parent company of NBC wanted a show with a lot of outdoor scenes to promote its new color television sets. Although the ratings of the show were marginal in the first two years it staying on the air and became a huge success when it was moved from its original time slot of 7:30 pm on Saturday to Sunday night at 9:00 pm. Since that time the show has become an American tradition with its rich family oriented story lines great western action and endearing characters. "Bonanza" is a true classic that will surely entertain audiences for years to come!Disc 1 - Side A1. Escape To The Ponderosa2. The ApeRuntime 98:53Disc 1 - Side B1. The Blood Line2.
