Bonanza - 1959 The Late Ben Cartwright 9-22 was released on: USA: 3 March 1968
It was dangerous business to be a female interested in a Cartwright man. Ben (Pa) Cartwright had three wives which all died. Little Joe married once, she died. Hoss almost married, bad luck again. It was felt that a woman would have upset the male ambiance of the show so any female love interests were quickly killed off or sent away.
Titled 'Forever', #416, season 14, original air date November 12, 1972. Michael Landon wrote the script with Hoss in mind as the unlucky bridegroom but Dan Blocker's untimely death several months earlier demanded that Landon step up instead.
