Bonanza

Show Summary

Aired: 1959 - 1973
Show Type: Live Action
Country of Origin: US

The saga of the Cartwright family. Set in the vicinity of
Virginia City, Nevada. Widower Ben Cartwright was the patriarch
of the all-male clan and owner of the thousand-square-mile
Ponderosa Ranch. Each of his sons had been borne by a different
wife, none of whom was still alive. Adam, the oldest of the
half brothers, was the most serious and introspective. Hoss,
the middle son, was a mountain of a man who was as gentle as
he was huge, at times niave, and not particularly bright.
Little Joe was the youngest, most impulsive, and most romantic
of the Cartwright offspring. The adventures of these men,
individually and collectively, their dealings with the mining
interests and the ranching interests, and the people whose
paths crossed theirs made up the stories on Bonanza.

This Bonanza Intro video must have come from a VHS tape where a video company wouldn't pay the royalty for the -real- Bonanza theme music.

Well this is the german theme song. After the germans voiced over the episodes they needed a different themesong because the real one was in english and that would clash with the rest of the series.
But they were stupid enough to leave the english text in the screens (starring ect) and let the songs in the episodes be song in english. But that's the story about the intro

I remember this show from when I was really little. I was born quite a few years after it began, but I was old enough to get a smile on my face each time Adam or Little Joe came into a scene. Mmmm Yummy.
