EVERY episode of Bonanza was filmed and aired in color. Color TV was brand-new, and Bonanza's big draw to advertisers was that it, unlike Gunsmoke, was going to be in full color from the start.

Bonanza was never filmed in black and white. The mother company of NBC was RCA

which wanted to sell color TV's. The Cartwrights were always in color, unless of course you didn't own a color set.

Bonanza was always filmed in color. The 'mother company' was pushing color TVs on the American public so the extra expense of filming in color was worth it to them.
