Ponderosa (TV Series)
''The Ponderosa'' is a television series developed by ''Bonanza'' creator David Dortort for PAX TV that ran for the 2001–2002 television season. Envisioned as a prequel to the NBC series ''Bonanza'', covering the time when the Cartwrights first arrived at the Ponderosa, when Adam and Hoss were teenagers and Joe a little boy, it had less gunfire, brawling and other traditional western elements than the original. ''Bonanza'' creator David Dortort approved PAX TV's decision to hire Beth Sullivan, creator and executive producer of ''Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman'', to oversee scripts and executive produce, which some believe gave the series a softer edge. ''The Ponderosa'' was canceled after one season, in part because of disappointing ratings and high production costs. Although Sullivan had hoped to film the series in and around Los Angeles, PAX decided to film in Australia to reduce costs. The series should not be confused with ''Ponderosa'', the title used for ''Bonanza'' rerun ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
