SHOW SUMMARY
Paladin was not your normal gunfighter. He was an educated and a traveled man. A West Point graduate, he served as a Union officer during the Civil War. After the war, he went west and became a high-priced 'gun for hire.' He was based at the Hotel Carlton in San Francisco and enjoyed the finer things in life. He dressed in fancy clothes, enjoyed fine wine, gourmet food, opera, expensive cigars and he could play the piano.
He read newspapers from all over the West looking for situations in which he could help, for a fee. Sometimes Hey Boy, the Oriental porter who worked at the Carlton, would bring Paladin a letter or 'wire' asking for his help. Usually, within the first few minutes, he was dressed for 'business' and on the trail.
When working, he dressed completely in black including a black hat with a band of silver conchos and a custom holster with a silver chess knight on it. He carried a custom made pistol which was perfectly balanced and had a rifled barrel. He preferred to settle problems without violence whenever possible, but if forced to fight, he excelled. A master marksman and a quick draw, he was a match for most any man. And for those 'difficult times' he kept a derringer hidden under his belt, which saved his life on many occasions. His rifle, which was rarely used, also had a silver chess knight on the stock. This leads us to believe it was as carefully made as the pistol he carried.
Before resorting to violence, Paladin would put his rich education and experience to work to try to find an alternate solution. In spite of his profession, he had a deep respect for the law and would often turn on his employers if he found they were the guilty party.
Heyboy is the coolest asian in SF............

@dan51556 Hi Dan! Oh yes, Bonanza was probably the greatest impression on my life... a good father to look up to! I'm seriously considering when my first year with Dish is up, to get rid of some programming and add Encore channels... so at least I'll have those old westerns! Don't know what you have, but you might want to consider checking how much Encore channels would cost you. Dish says it's $5/mo.

@maxinerose790 I agree...those were two of the best Westerns ever. Gunsmoke and Bonanza were also great, but HGWT and Cheyenne are hard to find!! Thanks for posting

I also can't find part 2. How am I supposed to watch a show if I can't find the rest of it?

THANK YOU so very much!!! It's too bad that TVLAND won't put on the really old tv westerns like this and Cheyenne. Encore Westerns have it but not everyone can get that.
