Great to see Hugh O'Brien again. Always remember the Buntline Special story.Has anyone got clips or opening credits of Temple Houston, Pony Express, The Californians, The Americans, Union Pacific, Frontier Circus or Jefferson Drum please?

When I was little,I thought Wyatt Earp was one of the best of the tv westerns.

[CocteauDalighari]

Wow! Even as a single-digiteer, I thought this tune was a bit maudlin. For years I thought the announcer said "Hugh-o Brian." Now we know Earp was just another drunken gunslinger, but old Hugh-o made him romantic, as was intended. For all you xxx-generian types, show was sponsored by Gold Medal Flour: I thought his badge WAS the gold medal!

As a child and native Arizonian, I faithfully watched the reruns (it was already TV history). But, after watching it again after all these years, all I can say is, "Gag me!"

@mbabist01 Being a tad stoned made it a little more enjoyable. Such plots, such acting, such superior sound, such a crisp picture. You just had to let it flow. Life was good then.

@undertkr2001 ;-D

Hugh O'Brian was a former Marine who fought in WWII like alot of the old actors. Thank you for your service Hugh. If it wasn't for you guys like you our society today wouldn't constitutional rights.

[coporal4]

@001Broadway OK buddy explain your comment of seriously?

[undertkr2001]

My ex and I used to get stoned on Sat afternoons and watch Westerns on Sat afternoons. This was one of our favorites along with Judge Roy Bean. What a flashback. Thank you.

@undertkr2001 was it knocking around back then?,

[undertkr2001]

@robharding1957 Absolutely. I am now almost 50 and I can remember though times of loading a bong and enjoying this stuff. When I die, she and those afternoons will be on my mind and still just as close to my heart as they are now. Been separated from this one for 26 years and have never forgotten our times. Peace out my friend and thanks for your words.

[robharding1957]
