The correct answer is "Bonanza". "Bonanza" ran for 14 seasons from 1959 to 1973. The patriarch of the family was Ben Cartwright, played by Lorne Greene. In 2007, "TV Guide" rated him as #2 on its list of television fathers. He was born in Ottawa, Canada, in 1915. In the series, each of his sons was born to a different wife as Ben was widowed three times. Pernell Roberts played oldest son Adam. Roberts left the series after its sixth season. Dan Blocker played Hoss, whose first name was actually Eric. Sadly, Blocker died in 1972 from complications arising during from gall bladder surgery. Michael Landon played Little Joe.
