Yay!! BONANZA Season 8 is finally here! What a treat! I have waited a long time for this one and I hope it won’t be long before the rest are out. If you have younger kids, buy them this DVD set. That’s right! I’m 23 years old. After really getting hooked on BONANZA when I was 16, believe me I know that there are younger folks out there that enjoy the show. BONANZA is a classic and its appeal is timeless! Do not pass up the opportunity to share this show with the younger generation.

The people behind the scenes have worked their butts off to give you the best set of classic episodes available on DVD. There are tons of extras. You have a fascinating old interview with a great, yet underappreciated director, William Witney. You get rare photos, and fun Chevrolet commercials not seen since the 1960s. You get to see the special short film that only visitors of the touring Ponderosa Caravan got to see. Nobody’s seen it since the Caravan ceased touring in 1970! What a treat for this youngster who was born in 1991! (The Ponderosa Caravan was a replica of the ranch house, on wheels. It toured the U.S and Canada, appearing at fairs and rodeos.)

You can choose the option of not watching the commercials with an episode, but I wouldn’t recommend that. (It’s just one commercial, featuring a BONANZA cast member, and the commercial follows the end of the story.) What a treat! I feel like I’m back in the 1960s watching it air each week on TV! At the start of every episode, you get to see the original NBC Peacock logo. Way cool! That’s a nice touch and I love seeing it every time I start an episode.

You also get audio commentaries on some episodes from guest stars, DVD executive producer Andrew J. Klyde, or historians.

It's so great to bring back them all back to life, one of the finest families in the history of television.

Michael Landon (1936-1991), started having grey hair at age 20.
Before his death, he appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962) to talk about his brave battle against cancer and his life and it was the highest-rated show of all time.
Dan Blocker (1928-1972) is one of the true television immortals before his untimely death in 1972 at the age of 43.
Lorne Greene (1915-1987) was born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, died at age 72 of pneumonia following heart surgery on September 11, 1987 in Santa Monica, California.
And even though he doen't appear this season, his spirit lives on
Pernell Roberts (1928-2010) elected not to renew his contract and left at the end of the 1964-1965 season to the utter dismay of his fans. a gap was always felt in the Cartwright family by this abrupt departure.

34 full-length episodes with brilliant picture & sound on 9 discs, digitally restored with original music.
Special features include
- Vintage interview with director William Witney (1978)
- Vintage Chevrolette featurette 'Giant Step' with Lorne Greene
- New audio commentaries with guest stars Wayne Newton, Ted Quinn and DVD executive producer Andrew J Klyde and historian Allan Asherman
- Lost short film 'Ponderosa Caravan' (1967)
- Extensive and rare episodic, behind-the scenes and on-location photos

The following is the episode guide for season 8 of Bonanza originally aired in 1966-67.

I am so enjoying Season 8 of Bonanza!! I only hope the powers that be continue to release these delightful, remastered DVD sets!! Candy comes next season and I want to see him in beautifully restored quality! I'm in my 20s and Bonanza is one of my very favorite shows. My generation needs to be watching more of this kind of TV rather than what airs these days. Please release seasons 9-14 on DVD! :)

Format: DVD
“Bonanza: Season Eight, Volumes 1 & 2” contains all 34 episodes of the show’s 1966-1967 season on 9 discs. Lorne Green, Dan Blocker and Michael Landon star as Ben Cartwright and sons Hoss and Little Joe, respectively. Focus of the weekly series was the Ponderosa, the Cartwrights’ sprawling ranch in Nevada Territory in the 19th century.

The first network Western to be broadcast in color, “Bonanza” was one of the costliest shows on TV during its run. Pernell Roberts, who played eldest son Adam, left the show after six years. “Bonanza” racked up a total of 430 episodes over 14 seasons and was the second longest running Western series after “Gunsmoke.” The period covered is during and following the Civil War.

In Season 8, “Bonanza” tackled numerous contemporary issues. The season is a mixed bag of first-rate episodes and mediocre ones. The lack of consistency on a high level is probably due to the fact that so many stories had been presented and writers were repeating themselves on a number of episodes. Some seem all too familiar.

Much of the ongoing popularity of the program was its ability to blend Western action with personal stories of Ben, Hoss, Little Joe and the various individuals whose paths took them to the Ponderosa. The format was anthology with a core of regular characters. Guest stars in Season 8 include Ed Begley, Dina Merrill, Vera Miles, Jeanette Nolan, Ann Doran, Wayne Newton, Lola Albright, Beau Bridges, Diane Baker, Leslie Nielsen, Jack Oakie, Louise Latham, Zsa Zsa Gabor, John Saxon, and Robert Middleton.

Bonus features include audio commentaries by Wayne Newton and Diane Baker; original NBC network logo, bumpers and Chevrolet promo; photo gallery; and the lost short film, “Ponderosa Caravan” (1967).
