I remember watching the later years in reruns on Saturday and Sunday afternoons in the late 70s and 80s here in Australia. I was a kid and in my early teens during this time.

I didn't get to see my first Adam years episode until 3 years ago when I was bored one summer's afternoon and decided to watch Bonanza, thinking it would be an episode that I had seen while I was growing up. I hadn't seen the show in years and I was surprised to see an episode I had never seen before. It rekindled my interest in a show I had always liked.

I started watching it when I was 11 back in 1959. It was broadcast in color but we only had a black and white tv.

I was somewhere around 10. I was born in 1954, but we couldn't afford a television until I was around 10. It was black-and-white, with a tiny screen. There were only 3 channels in the known universe then, and some of them were really fuzzy, unless you went outside and turned the antenna. *sigh* I am soooo old!

I was born in May 1957, and it was one of the first shows I watched and enjoyed...altho it was "heavy" at times for a kid...in those days. Lots of drama, but plenty of humor to lighten it up, especially with Hoss and Little Joe. My dad is/was a huge Bonanza fan, as was my entire family. It was sad when Dan Blocker (Hoss) died and they cancelled the series, but like the song, "Wildwood Flower" says..."All good things must come to an end".

I think I was around 10 years old when I started watching Bonanza. It was definitely somewhat between 1990 and 1995. At first I only watched the show because of the horses. Then when I was a teen I watched it because of Little Joe and now I watch it because of the show itself. Although I gotta admit I still like Little Joe best

The earliest I remember watching was in my teens, which would have been the 1990's some time. Always, always liked Adam.

I've been watching since I was born. Was blowing kisses at Little Joe while I was still in diapers.
