I wish we had more shows like that on TV now, it might actually be worth watching. I was a faithful watcher of reruns of Grizzly Adams, as a younger individual.

I guess I'm the odd man out...I always thought he was a tree hugger.

on the show he was an animal lover and tree hugger. Makes you sick at times on some of the episodes but it sure beats whats on today.

so did I.maybe he was just a good actor, though I don't remember anything worthy of an oscar ,either.I confess to not know a lot about his personal life but he never struck me as a person to look up to, or a particularly good role model.
of coarse when a man passes it is human nature to remember them as better then they really were.
I do however agree , we need more family friendly shows of this caliber today

While I admit I did watch the show, there are parts about those kind of programs that do upset me a little. But enough said. Rest in peace Grizzly Adams, and wasn't his bear named Ben?

Bart The Bear. That Bear was a movie star galore. One of the best trained Brown Bears in recent history. If memory serves, they only had one minor incident with Bart getting rough with an actor or trainer and that was when he was still fairly young. But the TV show called the Bear "Ben" and there was a movie called "Gentle Ben" as well as a novel and I think a TV show too.
