What's your favourite scene with Hoss in Bonanza?

[@danielnormand8156]

The one in the episode with the lepricaun.

[@deirdre108]

Every episode in which someone gets thrown through the saloon doors!

[@sandymartyn5410]

Every episode that Dan Blocker was in as Hoss Cartwright was my favourite.,,.,,,R.I.P.

[@scoobymc3375]

Any of the scenes with him and little joe because them 2 cracked me up when little joe was thinking up of something he can get hoss into.

[@gonzostrangelove6107]

As a large and kinda awkward guy, it was every time Hoss used his size for good. Watching those episodes served as a valuable lesson in how to deal with being a big man.

[@jrewing1512]

It sad that he died young. He was truly the heart of the Cartwrights.

[@2007Tarkus]

You are so right I loved him as an actor Hoss = aggro

[@themartialartsmermaid]

Hoss was BY FAR my favorite Cartwright. I went through young and foolish childhood crushes on Joe and Adam but as an adult, I'd choose Hoss any day of the week. ❤

[@Enri45100]

He was my favourite character in Bonanza.

[@tgriffin3059]

I was on the fence about who was my favorite...but I always felt that Hoss got the best storylines. So many of the best episodes that centered around one character...just seemed to focus on Hoss. The Jury, Hot Day for a Hanging, The Smiler, The Tall Stranger, The Newcomers, Feet of Clay....so many of the best were Hoss episodes...

[@rupertofhentzau920]

Big brother Adam just waved Hoss into the fight...😂

[@scoobymc3375]

🤣

[@dianeblack8849]

Dan Blocker was truly an under-rated actor..he was a tender hearted character

[@Fultonfalcons86]

Dan Blocker was an amazing human being and actor.......

[@cheerjim]

Nice to see some from 1966-1972. Enjoyed!

[@gonzostrangelove6107]

Had a TV in my room from about the time I was 10. After Johnny Carson, the local station played re-runs of Star Trek and Bonanza. Can't tell you how many nights I fell asleep after watching some Cartwright adventure or another. Great memories.

[@Elidoransgar]

That fight at 3:13 is impressive. Knock-down drag-out. The physicality is over the top. Guarantee they felt that for a few days afterward.

[@jimmywest2501]

My thoughts exactly! Great fight scene!

[@sarinaedwards6705]

All the Cartwrights were my favourites, they will be surely missed

[@teresawilliams2158]

The one where Hoss dresses up like the Easter Bunny was pretty funny! 😆

[@peterpaul6725]

Hoss, my Hero since I saw you first time in late 1950s😢RIP

[@kevinwill3773]

Dan Block was a very fine actor and my favorite and really loved his Restaurant's

[@lindamerchant4431]

Never be another hoss Cartwright serious or comedy western hoss Dan blocker was the man😃💜

[@nathanieldavis5231]

Miss ya Grandpa , and those Sunday nights !

[@donmila1]

Hoss was the Boss! Loved’ ‘em!

[@Squirrel36]

Hoss is awesome! Sure he was ditsy, but he was adorable, cute, and funny!

[@melissacooper4282]

My favorite scenes with Hoss were when Hop Sing caught him stealing a doughnut. When he realized that Little Joe was teasing him when he thought that he found a leprechaun. And when he and Little Joe were playing bull fighters.

[@MrRdilly]

The Heart and Soul of Bonanza.

[@ludyvaldez3890]

Hoss was the one that had trouble with Joe, he believes in everything that Joe said, poor Hoss. RIP 🙏 dear Dan Blocker "Hoss Cartwright"❤️🌹❤️

[@ALana-wy5ql]

OG HOSS GOBLESS

[@jslade60]

Surprising they even did the final season after Dan blocker passed. Of all the seasons the networks request for syndication the final season is requested the least, it just wasn't the same without Hoss!

[@matslindelof7692]

i grew up with bonanza on tv in sweden love them and miss them with love and tears

[@estherstone4860]

A lot of people learned English by watching American television. My best friend lived in Israel when ‘Dallas’ was on. Everyone there wanted to know who killed JR. Just like us. We watched MASH when we were visiting Sweden in 1978.

[@irmaluduena6359]

Hoss te amamos ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@MirelleJanaWalter-yb7cz]

🎉 I remember Hoss' bathing scene. 🎉

[@matslindelof7692]

hoss my favorite ofcourse

[@irmaluduena6359]

Te amamos Hoss ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lindamerchant123]

There was a so funny comraderie between hoss and little joe

[@tomodonovan5931]

I always loved the shows where you would see the character by himself. Hoss in Gallagher's sons, or Any Friend Of Walter's. You always got to enjoy their acting more. Festus in Gunsmoke's Eleven Dollars, or Dillion in Matt's Love Story. They would be in their own adventure. Hopsing falling in love was another favorite. Those were my favorite shows it seems. The shows had incredible writing, and very good plots, and some surprises. Television has been lost in space more then the Robinson family. I find myself watching the reruns more then the latest shows.

[@alandesouzacruz5124]

Great actor my favorite member of série 🤠👍🏻

[@FiveFiveOfFire]

3:28 that was a hard punch 😂

[@iamwxnderland]

Truly a big hoss

[@tonypage9302]

Crazy to think any actor on here older than 60 was born in the 1800s..

[@hyena131]

2:14 and 5:25 - The cheesy backdrops 🤣😂🤣

[@williamshea4425]

Gosh I miss him.

[@cherylseybert5669]

Hi 🙋‍♀️ this is a very nice 👍🏻

[@vibes3360]

Never watched the show. Im 41 Maybe I should someday.

[@b.a.k.2683]

Ever wonder why the Cartwright gun belts never had spare cartridges?

[@lastrada52]

In that first scene, Hoss walks around a big guy -- that's legendary B-horror movie actor Tor Johnson as San Francisco fighting champion Busthead Brannigan. Too bad Bonanza didn't flesh out a better part for Tor as Brannigan -- it would've been terrific. Probably Tor's least remembered (1960) part but most revered acting credit.

[@Constable_Bob]

Good stuff... that’s all I have to say.

[@burakbayraktar437]

Bonanzadan hass.lan bu melek gibi oğlan kim goydu bunu buraya

[@MrBritGrit]

Strange I used watch Bonanza..religiously but I dont remember this character...

[@adinawolf2402]

Dan Blocker was quite smart in real life. Before he was an actor, he was a high school English teacher. Not at all like the part he played.

[@hydrolito]

How come a guy that was 6 foot six inches and at least in his forties said he was just a growing boy? When did he think he would be an adult?

[@michaelellams9105]

Us men never grow up we only grow old lol.

[@selecta540]

I guess he was saying he was a growing boy to get to steal the food from under the covered table cloth on the table lol.

[@CENCAL491]

A obvious female.Trans Bon aza
