What Was ‘Bonanza’ Actor Dan Blocker’s Net Worth at His Time of Death?

Some TV shows feel like they exist out of time. Regardless of when they first aired, they always seem to be in rotation and, often, in syndication in multiple places. Such is the case with the long-running Western series Bonanza. Still, despite the show’s longevity, star Dan Blocker could tell its days were numbered by a certain point into its 14-year run.

After its fall 1959 debut, Bonanza didn’t take long to build a devoted fan base. Set in the 1860s, the show follows the Cartwright family and the goings-on in and around Virginia City, Nevada. Along with Dan Blocker, the Bonanza cast included Lorne Greene, Pernell Roberts, Michael Landon, and Guy Williams as the members of the Cartwright clan.
