I couldn't agree more when he says that Michael was a natural actor. I read your comments and I have to tell you I like Pernell too! I've been watching every single episode of Bonanza, following the order, and I miss Adam after season 6 (I'm in season 10 now). He was also sexy with his deep voice and a sort of nonchalance in his look. I like especially the scenes in which he plays the guitar and sings. Well, the Cartwrights are one of a kind, I just love Bonanza. And Michael is my number one! ❤ Thanks for these great videos, Helane!

Yay! Another Adam lover! I too am watching Bonanza now I just started season 5. So I have 2 more seasons of Adam to enjoy. I know I'll miss him too.

@@helanesolomon1724 , I'm watching for the first time too. I sure miss him, but it's worthy watching anyway.

[@helanesolomon1724]

Very cool! Glad I'm not the only one who watched Little House and HTH first. I wasn't sure if I'd like young ML but I love it! Fabulous show. Took me years to finally start watching but so glad I did!

@@helanesolomon1724 , you're not alone! 😄 It's never too late! Michael has a charm of his own in each age. Although my favorite phase of his is as Charles Ingalls, I love to watch Little Joe and Jonathan Smith too. That's a rich universe and we can enjoy everything.

That was very interesting and fun to watch. 👍

[@helanesolomon1724]

Thank you! 😊

This really makes me realize the truth in the comparison of a fight scene to a dance. Both are choreographed and it does sound like a lot of fun to get together with an athletic guy like Michael and make up your own "steps". All the swings, tosses and tumbles, it's exhilarating! Thanks for another series of commentary!

The next commentary will be from Audrey Dalton on The Lady from Baltimore. I met her yesterday and am uploading her talking about Michael tomorrow. It's funny because she actually didn't remember kissing Mike.

[@angelofmercies4602]

@@helanesolomon1724 what?! A kiss with Michael for an actress had to have been the same rush as a fight with Michael for an actor! That kiss sure would've lingered in my memory if I had been so lucky 😊

[@helanesolomon1724]

My guess is, since her character was really in love with Adam, she remembers that more. I'm not saying I'd forget a Michael kiss but I actually have a fondness for Pernell now. I like Adam!

[@angelofmercies4602]

@@helanesolomon1724 at first I wasn't into Adam/Pernell but I grew fond of him too!

[@helanesolomon1724]

So happy to hear that! He really had a sexy quality...so cool
