So many Bonanza shows are packed with activism, they condemn and pass judgement about how people 100 years earlier "should have lived" and they show the way how viewers today "should" see it. Those are the ones I rate 2 or 3, or not at all.
But there are also shows which simply depict how life was at that time, and those are my favorites. Alright, they get spiced up with little adventure, light humor and pretty ladies, but other than that ...... (smile) This episode presented the topic of people dealing with rabies. Medically, prepare for the worst. Amazingly, the only thing that changed today is prevention, but there is still no cure. That makes it an eye opener from different views. Back to the show itself, acting was superb, Mrs. Miles performed her usual best.
