It was on September 12, 1959 that Bonanza first appeared on television.In an interesting twist on the usual trivia, this show originally was intended as a vehicle to sell color TV sets!RCA, the parent company of NBC, wanted a show with a lot of outdoor scenes to promote its new color television sets.Although the ratings of the show were marginal in the first two years, it stayed on the air and became a huge success when it was moved from its original time slot of 7:30pm on Saturday to Sunday night at 9:00pm.Since that time, the show has become an American tradition with its rich family-oriented story lines, great western action and endearing characters."Bonanza" is a true classic that will surely entertain audiences for years to come!
