BONANZA! remastered on DVD
It's been a while since this thread began but I thought I'd jump in now to mention that CBS Paramount released season one (1959-60) of BONANZA on DVD in region 1 in 2009. The episodes all begin w/the original 1957 version of the NBC Peacock and end with the "This has been a color production of the NBC television network" snake logo.
The eps look magnificent -- newly transferred to digital Hi-Def from 35mm interpositive prints or negatives. You can read the hat size on the brim of Pernell Roberts' hat and see wrinkles in Dan Blocker's leather vest!
I highly, highly recommend this DVD set to all early color television enthusiasts (and BONANZA fans, who probably already have it).
