Best Western TV Series of the 20th Century
The 20th Century contained the golden age for television westerns especially from the 50s to the 70s. I remember growing up watching many reruns of these on INSP and later on Grit. This is a really fun genre even if it may seem somewhat dated.One of my favorite TV series. It shows how a town developed; it starts with the time of fur trappers, proceeds to the towns development when farming comes, evolves into a more developed than usual western series, ends with the modern day of the town for the time.
Awesome miniseries with multiple levels and layers.
Kung Fu is an underrated series in my opinion. As Caine goes across the American west, we see a journey of good deeds, combat, and spirituality all encased into one incredibly interesting man.
The Magnum Opus of classical western TV with memorable conflicts, characters, and setting. If you are a TV lover, you should at least watch part of this series when you can.
I feel that this show is underrated and pretty fun. It is set in New Orleans so it is in a more developed place than most Westerns. Yancy, the main character helps protect the city with unique conflicts in each episode and a fun riverboat setting of the city.
Rawhide is the classic Western TV series with memorable characters (especially wishbone), unique plots, and an ever moving setting as the trail continues onward.
So great love it!
This show has an awesome cast of characters, good episodes, and its definitely worth watching.
I remember that for a while when I was younger, the three western shows I mainly watched were The Big Valley, The Virginian, and The High Chaparral and while they were all nice in their own right, this is my favorite. I loved the setting out near Tucson, Arizona and decided when watching this show that I wanted to move to that area when I got older and perhaps be a cowboy. I may not have that dream anymore but it was definitely a thing in my life for a while. I also love all the different characters and their unique ways but Uncle Buc may be the most fun to watch out of everyone. The plots are also usually pretty fun to watch. Definitely a fun show.
This show has heart and a lot of it. Lucas Mccain is father of Mark Mccain and without a mother figure around, he must do his best to raise his son but quite often, it is not only Mark but the whole town who needs his help to save the day. I liked the different plots, emotions, and overall bonds in this beautiful show.
Best TV show ever in my opinion.
Really enjoyable show with unique stories every episode.
Iron-jawed Chuck Connors on a never-ending quest for redemption.
The thinking man's western.
