Sometimes we here at Infomaniac like to imagine what went on behind closed doors at the Ponderosa.

Don't you?

      I agree, Kabuki. Some things are better left to others imaginations.

      MR. DeVICE: Imaginations plural?

      Of course you have all those separate personalities, don’t you?

      Is it any wonder he changed it?

    They didn't call them Hoss & Little Joe fer nuthin. I loved the Hooterville Trilogy: The Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres and Petticoat Junction...then came the Rural Purge in the early 60s when CBS cancelled all of thembecause they wanted the advertiser's wet dream: younger urban viewer demographic.

      Bonanza made it from 1959 to 1973,14 seasons and 430 episodes, second longest running western series behind Gunsmoke but it too became a victim of the Rural Purge.

      Delete
    2. The Mistress9:52 AM, May 03, 2013

      That purge included Don Messer’s Jubilee!

      1968 was the last season any new traditional Westerns debuted on television; by 1969, after pressure from parental advocacy groups who claimed Westerns were too violent for television, all three of the major networks ceased airing new Western series.

      I think we all know how that “too violent for television” thing turned out.

      Recently, I watched a “Rifleman” marathon. They can’t keep a good Western down when there are reruns to be watched.

      I know right? Westerns are too violent?
      They weren't all shoot-em-up Peckinpah or Spaghetti Westerns. On TV shows there wan't even any blood? At the end of every episode the bad guys would spin around and die..but they sill have time to deliver a line or two about the poor choices they made.

      DONN: The forces of good tended to triumph over evil in the TV western.

      Morality disintegrated in North American society around the time that TV westerns faded.

      Coincidence?
