| 07-27-2005, 02:38 PM | #2 | | BW Member | Re: Dan Blocker's Death It wasn't. The cast didn't feel they could do such a show and they also didn't want to cause Dan's family anymore grief. They just had a short memorial statement on the screen. They did show pictures of Hoss and Joe in one of the last episodes.

| 07-31-2005, 12:43 PM | #5 | | BW Member | Re: Dan Blocker's Death Was it stated that Hoss drowned and if so, where? Was Joe around at the time? Or does anyone know? I'm writing a story about Adam coming home and not knowing he was gone and I want to make sure that I get the facts right. Thanks!

IF it was stated that Hoss drowned while trying to save a family (sounds familiar but could be fanfic), it would have been in one of the movies.

It was in one of the movies, years after the TV show. We were not given an explanation on the show itself. __________________ Ellen DBF Hoss owns my heart!

I have been watching the reruns on a local channel and trying to remember the shows after Hoss died. I certainly agree that without Dan Blocker, Bonanza would never have been the success that it was. What a good, clean, fun show it was. A perfect blending of characters. There has been nothing like it since it left the air.
