"I cast my vote for "The Rifleman" to be on the list as well..."


I agree with you wholeheartedly.

The exclusion of any 50s Western characters (except the obligatory Matt Dillon and the re-made with Mel Gibson Maverick) is telling. The list of these shows, the ones with a clear right a clear wrong and no moral ambiguity is long enough to fill a week's prime time schedule....

Bronco

Cheyenne,

Wyatt Earp

Bat Masterson

Wagon Train

Sugarfoot

Lawman

Tales of Texas Rangers

Wanted: Dead or Alive (ignore Steve McQueen!)

Yancy Derringer

Tombstone

Tales of Death Valley

Daniel Boone

Davey Crockett.....

on and on and on....

As I wrote above, this list was put together by a committee of metrosexual Gen Xers with no historical perspective or curiosity.
