Synopsis of Bonanza: The Reluctant American
Londoners Leslie and Gillian Harwood (Daniel Massey and Jill Haworth) arrive in Nevada to take charge of a ranch on behalf of a British investment firm-and immediately mistake the Ponderosa for the ranch in question. Thus, the Cartwrights become involved in the couple's travails, attempting to find out why the property managed by the Harwoods is regularly losing cattle and profits. In the course of events, the veddy British Leslie slowly but surely evolves into a true-blue westerner. Written by Stanley Roberts, "The Reluctant American" originally aired on February 14, 1971. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
