It is nice to read a lot of the comments after watching each episode Carla. I know what you mean.

I just a got the Ponderosa Christmas CD...It is amazing and made me smile on the first song. Then when Adam's song played I was started to cry because it was so beautiful...Merry Christmas everyone. :)

Me too, I'm w/ tears especially that part when the Cartwright boys were singing.

@@bv6086 Dear BV may I know where did you buy that Ponderosa Christmas CD, Adam's baritone voice is so beautiful, thank you for your comment esp. on that Christmas CD, God bless you

Just.....love the Cartwrights

It’s now May, 2024. But always a good time to say: “Merry Christmas”. 🎄♥️🎄 Peace on Earth-Goodwill to men!!

BINGO !

The parents gave her the perfect name , Gabrielle . She 's a pretty strong in spirit .

And that little girl played that role, to a T.

@@maritzaagosto1793 I guess so, Maritza.

21 years in a hellhole for some thing he didn't do. You really can't blame him

De nada.

It's not a movie

Very nice upbringing of Ben Cartwright.

"I hope you like chicken pie, well good" why didn't she wait for her to answer, she is blind not mute.

@@jlove7723 coz she was heart broken and in a bad mood.. Shez just a kid with dead parents who died recently remm

@@taniaahmed83 You're overthinking my comment.

@@jlove7723 hahahah I just realised tht... Ur right.... ☺️

@@taniaahmed83 🙂🙂

OK, you’re an old softy. Well, I guess I am too.

I'm maybe softie too.😥

Glad I'm not the only one. I teared up a little too. 😢

me too.

Yeah its umportant to remember true values even if it was way back time is too short and goes by fast keep memories close

She would have been better off staying with the Cartwright's rather than her elderly grandfather.

Willie Gordon: True, and we don't know what the outcome is.

@@AndrewVelonis True, Willie Gordon.

I went through quite a lot of tissues watching this story.

Yup....

8 mikki juli nhi nhi

Ben is the same. I like how each son takes after Ben . Adam has his intelligence and mind for running a business , Hoss has his heart , Joe has his wild side. They're all obviously kind hearted loyal and great at what they do

He is definately one of my favorite charecters. He has such a big, kind, and generous heart. Not to mention a big appetite! lol

it is just a MOVIE... and you:a guy loves a guy so are yoy ga....

@@robertheinrichvonseyfenste267 What a pathetic loser you are!

@@robertheinrichvonseyfenste267 Ignorant fool can't even spell....stay out of the comments, no one wants your idiot ranting.

There are sime, just never represented on TV series or news. Keep looking.

@963ag Couldn't agree more.

Me too! Longing for a world like this.

Made in 60s still good to watch

Maybe learn to spell

@@alancrase8767 learn2 love is better

@@alancrase8767 simmer down now mister

Yes, it is a fairy tale ranch one can visit with old well known friends, & all the others coming here to relive it or that have discovered it are somehow a connected family.

What a joy that would have been, had it been written into the script and watching her grow up on the Ponderosa.

Yeah then Ben could have had a daughter and the boys a little sister but they knew she needed a mother figure

Diane Mountford should be 74 at this point.

Me too.

I think he decided to let her stay with them because he was out trapping frequently, but visited often and became more siciabke...sometimes taking her for an evening on the mountain.

I'm thinking that maybe the grandfather stayed with the pastors too, it would be difficult for him to alone look after a blind girl and she has to get some type of teatching.

I was just thinking the same thing that story is like Heidi

Yes. So true...

Well, the best Christmas story ever is the original one. 🙂 But I know what you mean. This was a great episode.

Which is the original story? 🙂

What were she to call him? That's his name - Little Joe.

@@Ettibridget Yes, but with her being a child, it did sound a little funny hearing her say Little Joe instead of Joe or Mr. Cartwright. Not a big deal. Still a great episode.

@@billh.8515 Well, Joe calls himself Little Joe too. But yeah, I see what you mean.

Watched it Sunday night with my Grandparents

I agree. They were great singers! 👍

🤣

Yes exactly

"How Beautiful Heaven Must Be.". 🎼🎶🌺💐🌹🌹🎻🎼🎶

This is a very touching episode that touches the heart I wish more people would watch this

@@johncater15 I wish more people behaved like them.

That was hilarious

Worst than a little blind girl.

Glad you liked it

@Jame Hutchins Now you're making me reach for another Kleenex. God bless you.

I'm in a somewhat similar situation. I live alone and I like it that way. I've only met my grandson once in person. My beard is longer than the one worn by the guy in this episode, but it's very clean.

Wouw that what you find important in this episode?

Episode which made tears!

Better than now. Still family with honesty and values, but midway though the kids were celebrating youth and imaginative color, or protesting the war...some violence then like the mistake at Penn State. Generally around the old Town where the Alamo was, there wasn't much problem between cultures. There were old doorways that you could find on the side of a building that used to discriminate. But things were moving in the right direction. The hippie kids were not too prejudiced one from another, and we all had friends from different backgrounds. In that town, there were invisible (and not written of) land borders. Everyone knew. In the day you were safe if not too lingering, but at night you generally didn't cross invisible lines. It was not perfect, yet moving in the better direction...unlike what the news tries to tell us now. However, that may not be the truth in many quarters. I like diversity and dislike the words " cultural appropriation" because I feel that many distinct cultures or clubs to memorialize our backgrounds assures that all can live peacefully as one nation; that is best. Sharing clothing, foods, decorative objects and art, music, mythical stories...that can be a beautiful and life enhancing thing! ❤ The core value, imo, was always to support the documents that helped ensure people might have as many individual rights as could be had- barring hurting others. This is what needs keeping, no matter who are the future occupants. Caucasians know their DNA is blending gradually into their smelting pot here , and that is natural. The old ones only want the family values, rights to worship, the honesty, decency, and preservation of our original constitution. Why? Because it is a legal document that states all rights come from The Creator, The Devine, God. This is very important to preserve since it means there can be no dictator, no king, no tyrant. Only the inalienable rights you are invested with as a citizen. I wish I could add that to all Country's constitutions...and pray all coming after me know the importance of holding on to this one thing. Especially. I knew many of that generation before me that were honest good people when Bonanza was on. Our neighbors through 2 moves were best friends and Hispanic. My mom worked with people from various cultures, and eventually I worked alongside one of these who became as my mentor many years - a good lady of dark heritage who was like a deaconess in her church. Part of what held the society together were the old war veterans, passing now. So staunch and acting so certain,, sometimes maddeningly so,, lol.. Part was the stronger family units, even in the face of a youth rebellion. Part was the ideals of feeling a right to privacy, a need for self sufficiency and inner strength. It was a sort of quiet pride not seen as much now. Hate to say... but no one would have begged to people that had already hurt them, especially if told the help the desperate so needed would become an indebtedness lasting for generations. People were sort if naive then, I think, yet oddly many could read right through the soul of others. More time was spent together. Maybe that was why. Not as much despair or sarcasm as now...just a little. Less frequently found. More often overcome. Disasters like in all ages, but you never were bombarded with the knowledge if so many daily. The youth were spared understanding how tough old age got- on purpose. They were just encouraged to hold various values ( slightly different from group to group, but not that different) throughout their lives. I think in the 70s and 80s, maybe into the 90s things were still improving, and things could still come together soon, since there was hope of that not long ago. Currently...we are being interfered with by invisible personages here and abroad. We'd be better off without interference.

Well... Hollywood, just off the Santa Ana and San Diego freeways, made worlds and universes of illusion...

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! 🤠👌🎬🍿

Awesome Show
