On today’s episode of Yee-Haw! A Bonanza Podcast, we’re watching Season 1, Episode 9, “Mr. Henry Comstock,”. The story covers the Canadian swindler famous for discovering the Comstock Lode. This cheesy entry into Bonanza Season 1 explores man’s lust(?) for gold, the gimmicky effects that guitar and harmonica can have on a scene, and the consequences of taking a Paiute princess to a dance without her father’s permission.
The real question remains— is this an episode of Bonanza or a parody of Bonanza?
