Pernell Roberts looks like he is physical pain being forced into doing this commericial. But maybe he popped a couple of Ecotrin afterwards and felt better.

Notice Pernell Roberts doesn't utter a word, and hangs kind of low amid his two other co-stars. He was probably terribly embarrassed to be associated with this.

Love those Cartwrights(and those Chevys!)

Obviously people recognize a comment about "hunting falcons and thunderbirds" as competing with Ford. Landon's remark about cardinals being extinct refers to the Ford Cardinal, which the company decided not to offer, three months before U.S. production was to start. The tooling was sent overseas and the vehicle produced as a German Ford. It would have been the first U.S. car with a V-4 engine and the first since the 1930's Cord with front wheel drive.

I don't recall the show ever being in black and white. I thought part of the pitch for the show required that it be shown in color.

Pernell Roberts se ve muy incómodo en este anuncio. Por razones como esta dejó la serie.

I don't know why Pernell Roberts was trying to duck out of this ad. I guess he was the most temperamental out of the cast anyway. Lorne and Dan look like they don't mind in the least and Michael is going along with it. But Pernell looks like he wants to dig a hole here.

I love Bonanza, but oh woe was Pernell. Things could have been so much better for him than his having to suffer through a short plug for the people who basically paid his considerable salary and helped make him a star. l picture how much better he'd have had it as, oh I don't know, a waiter, file clerk, construction worker, trash collector, forklift driver, bank teller. I feel so bad for him.

Poor Poor Poor Pernell, but I had to chuckle anyway !!! You can so tell he hated this and was embarrassed!!! Sorry Pernell honey but it's much too funny you brought more attention to yourself by your actions in this. Love you though. kiss, kiss Pernell. R,I.P All my Cartwright Cowboys

@johnorydupont Actors know who pays the bills. Pernell introduced the 1965 Corvette in the big Chevy commercial they did every year.  Just take a look the "Chevrolet Commercial of 1965" in the suggested videos.
