14. Lorne Greene Is One Of America’s Favorite TV Dad’s
One of the show’s producers, David Dortort, was appalled at the way American fathers were represented in the media when Bonanza aired (because he thought most TV Dads were morons). So, he made his series an hour long (as opposed to half and hour) in order to have time to flesh out the character of Lorne Green (who was Canadian) in order to turn him in to the kind, caring father that men should strive to be. Of course, it was a little unhealthy and adolescent how three grown men had to kowtow to their dad all the time.
