Less than solid court room drama
smithbea8 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
It has touches of the film 'Twelve Angry Men' (the latter work starring Robert Webber) to be sure. But this ep gets away from the court room theme as Adam Cartwright starts to investigate the scene of the crime for Hoss.. Ep is simply better than some Bonanzas and worse than others.

This Ain't 12 Angry Men
bkoganbing7 September 2020
This episode has Dan Blocker on a jury in Judge Arthur Space's courtroom deciding the fate of Jack Betts up on a charge of murder. Betts is accused of robbing a pair of miserly brothers and killing one of them.

Betts is one loudmouth lout of a human being but he swears he didn't do this and Hoss has his doubts.

They sure don't believe in sequestering the jury. Good thing because Hoss has brother Adam check something out.

This ain't 12 Angry Men by a stretch and even that classic was flawed. But they sure were more informal in the west.
