    Awesome that Lee was showing his biotic magnetism. (Seriously, great photographs)

      Someone commented on this on PlaidStallions once, they went to one of these appearances and met Majors.

      Then his family went to some steakhouse across the street and Majors was eating across from them. I'm assuming they mean the Bonanza mentioned in this ad.

        I got to meet Lee a few years ago in Toronto. We talked about the stunts on SMDM and how much he participated in them. One of my favorite celebrity meetings.

          Love the fact he went to eat at Bonanza steakhouse, when he starred on The Big Valley.

            I wonder if "biotic" was a typo or someone trying to be cute. Six Mill was lagging in the ratings around the time of this appearance. That's probably why they sent him on the road.

              Yeah the first season was a little rushed and the show didn't find it's footing until season 2.

                  Surprising in 1974 they didn't give Lee a subcredit as from The Big Valley too.

                        Interesting that they had him visit a toy store despite the fact that no Six Mill toys existed at that point. Since the show was a hit with kids, I guess it made sense.
