The best Bonanza episode

Season 6, episode 1.  " Invemtion of a Gunfighter."

This episode in particular showcases the GOAT, Michael Landons incredible acting talents.  He played opposite, a tremendous actor in his own right, Guy Stockwell, older brother of the film star, Dean.  The transformation, that takes place in just a 48 minute episode (minus the 12 minutes of commercials).  This was an era when television was done right.

What makes this especially meaningful was that this was the first episode of season 6, which was Pernell Robert's (Adam Cartwright) final season as he wanted to move on to serious acting.  

Normally, when a major piece is taken off the cast, the show begins to decline.  It didn't happen here though as Michael Landon stepped up hi game and kept the show number 1 for 2 more years and kept the show running for a total of 14 seasons in all.  431 episodes and I've seen 431, my knowledge on great television,  music and movies is the equivalent of 10,000 of you trolls 

My Gramma would love you!!

Do Barnaby Jones next!

Bonanza is that shitty Western TV show that ran way too long, right?

Michael Landon will always be Charles "Pa" Ingalls.

Yo that blind daughter was fire son . Straight up . With them dead eyes that looked like they were an entranceway into another dimension and all . Can’t believe she didn’t randomly fall down hills and some shit though . That was surprising . I hated that mean blond haired girl so much . Only girl that I would call the C word for sure , besides that nun that used to threaten my life and hit me with the chalk eraser so many times . But that’s it . Just them two . Merlin Olson was that big dog boy . Bad ass motherfucker . The original Brawny man . I betcha his character busted so many loads during that time period . Nothin’ else to do ! Yo Michael Landon is straight gangsta . Plus he did that Angel show . And the hair . Fuck . I don’t swing the other way but I would have loved to run my fingers through those locks . He’s probably the only dude that I would pick his booger too . Real talk . 

a true gift.......

Hey yo red come on bro , gun to your head , which one you doin’ in the sack ?

that Laura Ingalls Wilder but she’s missin’ two legs and she’s got a cleft palate ?

or that mean old Nellie Oleson , but she’s got a real nice boob job and some cosmetic surgery that makes her look like skating legend Katerina Witt but she’s also got dicks for fingers that ejaculate ?

serious question bro . 

Tough crowd .

Hoss & The Lep

I always imagined third as a brain in a jar that was kept alive by electrodes or the power that was made by a hamster running on a wheel in a small glass enclosure sitting next to it in some laboratory in the Netherlands .

Guess I was wrong . Way to show your human side third 

Dan Blocker was a good actor. 

Yo Dan Blocker , yo he aight . He aight .

but you ever seen Blu Blockers bro ? Dems was the shits . You ever seen that dude in the infomercial pop off that mega freestyle dogg ?

homie was tongue twistin’ lungin’ with the exquisite , double pump shotgun thunder punch with every one of his syllables spittin’ …

you feel me dogg ?

the Blu Blockers over Dan Blocker all day son . It’s not even a contest .

Like me versus Meghan O’Reilly in that arm wrestling competition that we had in 3rd grade .

Busted her up good .

Run to your NaNa Meg , cry to your NaNa .

Challenging me ? Da hell was she thinking ? Just cuz she could do more pushups during the Presidential Fitness test in gym class don’t mean that you can silence deez guns girl . fuckin’ rookie . 

In short Blu Blockers is more John Blaze than Dan Blocker . 

Have you ever noticed how Ben Matlock looks like Sheriff Taylor?  How the sheriff on Heat of the night looks like Archie Bunker?  How Barney Jones looks like Jed Clampitt?

The Jack Lord's 'Hawaii 5-0' was the bees knees. 

Book'em Spockato.

Something a social loser is proud of.
