A Great Classic,

This review is from: Bonanza: The Official Second Season, Volume One (DVD)
So good to see the Bonanza series coming to DVD. These are the official releases. This was a great TV Classic-one of the best. Bonanza Season Two Volume One is excellent. It contains quite a few great extras. I'm looking forward for Season Two Volume Two and the rest of the series.

Best ever,
This review is from: Bonanza: The Official Second Season, Volume One (DVD)
If you enjoyed Bonanza 30 years ago, you will love this new series. The picture quality is very good and the special features are really enjoyable. On the 2nd season, vol 1 there are three episodes where you have the choice of watching it as per normal or the guest star describing the episode as it plays. It is interesting to hear their voices now as some of the guest stars are now in their 70's and 80's. Can't wait for season 2 vol 2.

Worth Waiting For!,
By Nyaguthie Ngetha - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bonanza: The Official Second Season, Volume One (DVD)
This is classic BONANZA the way it was meant to be -- in a wonderful, new collection well worth waiting for after years of bootleg, unauthorized sets of poorly packaged, inferior quality transfers, lacking the original music and sold in bargain basement bins. The picture and sound quality here is excellent. Every episode starts with the iconic NBC Peacock and contains the legendary original theme song (one of the greatest of all time) by Jay Livingston and Ray Evans. David Rose's wonderful music, specially composed for each episode, is intact. To be able to see scenes cut out of TV Land broadcasts is so gratifying! And the extras! Pages and pages of magnificent photos I've never seen before (many in color), including on the set, off the set, cast relaxing "at home," making personal appearances . . . audio commentary on some episodes by guest stars (you should hear what Julie Adams recalls about Dan Blocker in "The Courtship" and what Stella Stevens says about working with Michael Landon in "Silent Thunder . . .), footage of David Dortort in his home, and perhaps my favorite extra, a gem of an interview with Dan Blocker giving an eloquent account of differences and similarities between himself and "Hoss." Executive Producer Andrew Klyde and the rest of the team at CBS Home Entertainment outdid themselves and delivered a great follow-up to last year's Bonanza: The Official First Season, Vol 1 & 2. Even the on-screen menu pages featuring a gorgeous screen-capture of each "Cartwright" is great and easy to navigate. Get this DVD set right away! And then vol. 2 ASAP next year. It's a BONANZA for sure!

Thank God; it's about time!,
By Lisa Earls - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bonanza: The Official Second Season, Volume One (DVD)
I was so afraid this would never come out! Thank God it's coming! I don't even have to see it to know it is going to be great. The first-season DVDs were wonderful... complete un-cut episodes, clear color and film quality, and the CORRECT ORIGINAL MUSIC, not to mention you can be sure you get EVERY episode, unlike all that I dislike with the "other" Bonanza DVD collections out there. I would be thrilled with just the episodes themselves, but the special features are icing on the cake. My mother's favorite from the first-season set are the photo galleries. She was a Bonanza fan when the show first aired and I have now fallen in love with the show. Please, please, please, please, release the official DVDs for all the other seasons, too! Women of the younger generation need more Pernell Roberts.

Bonanza Season 2 Volume 1,
By anonymous-unknown - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bonanza: The Official Second Season, Volume One (DVD)
Thank goodness we are getting season 2. I know that companies like to see how well products like this sell before they continue with the next and I am glad to see that we are stepping in the right direction. Even though I never saw Bonanza when it first came out, simply because I wasn't born yet, I would always watch the re-runs on PAX when I was a little kid and immediately fell in love with the series. I still watch the re-runs today on TV Land and am happy that the DVDs are uncut and have beautiful picture and sound. This will be the ultimate collection for all Bonanza fans.
