Bonanza's Best

This collection of four DVD's definitely scratched my itch for the Ponderosa, when I need to be there. I feel that the episodes chosen were good ones, my copy was in great condition, it arrived in a fairly timely fashion and I am very happy with everything to do with my purchase, including the price. My only comment, which has nothing to do with the seller and is merely an aside, is that the dubbed-in theme song, obviously chosen to shorten the length of the discs (understandable) is really...creepy. I just wondered who did it, wonder if I'll ever know, but it isn't important. I am very happy with the set, and do not need to buy any other Bonanza collections.

I grew up with Bonanza. My dad was "Ben Cartwright". He believed and lived his whole life on the same phylosophy they used in this series.

I really enjoyed the Bonanza episodes. Takes me back to the good ol days. The missing theme song takes away from the series. Would have been 5 stars if the original theme song was included

Considering all 31 shows were condensed onto 4 DVD discs, the quality is great. The bit rate is small & does sacrifice some quality, but the original shows in 1960 were filmed so well, it doesn't seem to adversely affect the video or audio. Ultimately, nice $4 dollar acquisition! JC
