Reviews:
"I'm in my 60's, and am currently in home detention, like most of the country, because of a dang virus. This old episode of Bonanza came on the TVLand network and I remembered how much I enjoyed it as a kid, so I thought I'd give it another look.
It's a funny and enjoyable episode, but at my age, you can't help but break it down a little bit. You have to give some leeway to comedy, as suspension of disbelief is necessary for such things, but it's harder to swallow in your 60's than when you're 6.
I believe every member of the Cartwrights has proven their tracking ability in the past. And yet, somehow, nobody could see the tracks of these little men, their ponies, or the wagon they were using. It's a stretch, but it moves the story along, so what are you going to do? Let's call it poetic license. Still a warm and amusing episode of an old, beloved series.
BTW, one piece of fun trivia, Felix Silla, who played one of the "leprechauns", also played Cousin Itt, on the Addams Family." Written by Calaboss on IMdb.com
"One day out on the trail Hoss spies a bear getting ready to chow down on a little man in a green costume suitable to medieval times. He also finds a small box of gold dust and brings it back to the Ponderosa.
Where Dan Blocker's story is greeted with considerable skepticism by his father and brothers and Sheriff Ray Teal. But a traveling visitor to Virginia City from Ireland Sean McClory shows some interest. Of course it's just possible that the wee people of Ireland might have a colony in the American west.
Naturally there is a logical explanation to it all. But see this charming episode and find out for yourselves." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com

This is one of my favorites of the whole series. I love the funny ones. My favorite part is when Hoss is sneaking around trying to find the leprechauns and calls out to them in a really soft squeaky voice......."where areeeee you?" and unbeknownst to him Little Joe is on the other side of the bush and replies (also in a soft squeaky voice) ......."over heeeeeere!" and then almost can't help but break out in bellowing laughter. Such great memories. Thanks! Can you please upload the one where Hoss flies with the bird wings? That's my other most favorite funny episode along with this one.

Yeah, that was a trip. Hoss was so mad. He wanted to kill Little Joe. Then Little Joe was rolling around on the ground laughing.

Great episode! Now I know why it's so beloved. Anytime we're brave enough to stamp out bigotry, it makes the world better.

[@sueshow401]

Well, I could not help to chuckle and laugh heartily this entire episode. Of course there was an undertone of the fitting in not fitting in ...the expressions of Hoss when he thought a leprechaun was returning his "you-who" calls but instead it was Little Joe imitating in the same way his response to Hoss....Little Joe's expression and his goffle of heartiful laughter certainly made me laugh harder. And the injuenity and teamwork of those Leprechaun's to bring down over six feet tall, strong Hoss was another hoot and holler. Oh and let us not forget when the ENTIRE Cartwright family finally believe Hoss and quickly decide to stop the exodus of the leprechauns from their campsite..without guns...I might add...some more ingenuity from the leprechauns is applied to all four Cartwright's...so funny even though in the end The Cartwright's stopped the leprechauns escaping with the wagon being pulled by a team of ***miniature*** horses! 😂 The last two acts are very memorable with Hoss turning over the townsfolk to give a" warm" welcome without any heckling, teasing laughter....The moral of this episode covers the big and small dilemma being ironed out in honest discussions when the entire group visits Sheriff Kofey's jail house. TVM for showing this episode!

I remember this episode because my uncle bought the first color TV in our family. This is was the first time I ever saw color tv this episode.

That was a great scene too. He never spoke. And Little Joe's expressions!

First off, you can’t shoot a lock off like that. I know, been shooting nearly my whole, long life. And I’m old. I’ve been watching old Bonanzas, which conflicted with some other show my folks liked, so didn’t often see it. I like’em, and this one’s my favorite of all.

Maybe it had a rotten shackle. (wink) There are more egregious weapon errors, though. Bonanza is set during the Civil War (they live in Nevada TERRITORY). During the first season they tried to be period accurate with cap and ball but around season 3 or 4 everyone and his brother were carrying 1873 Colt single action army 45s and Winchesters (probably 1892s or 1894s. At any rate, the side loading gate and wood fore stock are dead give aways they certainly aren't Henrys), which didn't exist yet. But, eh, no one will notice. As a 10 year old, watching for the first time, I sure didn't ;). BTW, same with The Commacheros staring John Wayne, except it's set in Texas around 1843-4. Early on they stop by a ranch and are chatting about whether Texas will join the Union when, suddenly, it's attacked by a band of Commacheros. Wayne tosses his buddy a Winchester (again, probably a '92 or '94) then pulls out his 1873 single action army Colt and they both bang away at the marauders. Now that's a neat trick seeing as how both weapons wouldn't exist for another 30 years.

I ❤and enjoyed this episode so much that I had watched it more than once I realized in this episode Ben Cartwright was even funnier than his sons in his expressions and the way he talked😄.
