5.0 out of 5 stars One episode comic, one dramatic - a good bet for any fan, April 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Bonanza: Sisters & Toro Grande [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This tape gives good air time to all four Cartwrights - Adam and Ben in the first episode, a dramatic story in which Adam defies his father by dating a girl of poor repute and ends up accused of her murder. The story is sad and romantic and exciting and a nice departure, since Adam is usually the level-headed brother. The second features Hoss and Joe on a trip to Mexico to buy a prize bull, and the comedy of errors and adventures that ensues. Wonderful fun - full of laughs and unexpected twists.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth Buying This Tape, December 26, 2001

This review is from: Bonanza: Sisters & Toro Grande [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I was delightfully surprised at the good quality of the sound and the picture of this tape. I am very happy with it.

I've seen both episodes on television, but it's more fun to actually own them. "The Sisters" focuses on Adam and a woman he has chosen to date against Ben's wishes. I thought it showed a nice side to Adam, especially when he revealed his reasons to his father later in the episode. I also think it demontrated how the family supports each other, which is something I really like about the Cartwrights.

The second episode, "El Toro Grande" is also a good show. It's always a delight to see Hoss and Joe get into some of the stuff they manage to get into. And, then they somehow manage to get out of it. Ben and Adam have small parts in this episode, but they really add to it, especially Adam's comment at the end. He always seems to know when his brothers are telling the whole truth and when they aren't.

The second is a comic episode where the first was a drama. So, you get both kinds of stories on one tape. If you want quality, entertaining family shows, and you love Bonanza, then this is a tape to own.
