• German episode title: "Der Mann mit dem Lächeln", meaning "The Man With The Smile". [edit]
• Along with the new timeslot (which paid off big-time for Bonanza), we finally have the new chapter title music accompaning the watercolor credits for producer, writers and directors. The watercolor credits were used through the end of the 1970-1971 season; the music was used for the next nine years, while an abridged version of "The Big Bonanza" theme came with the 1970-1971 season.
