I never knew about this show growing up in the 1950s and 60s. I started watching all the episodes on YouTube and am very impressed. Rory Calhoun looks, acts, and talks just like Alan Ladd... except Calhoun was very tall, while Ladd was pint sized. This western is about a drifter who doesn't look for trouble, but t trouble always finds him, as he keeps getting in weekly brawls and shootouts on his many small town stopovers. The acting and dialogue seems to set this show apart, as there are very high standards. The plots are more adult themed than most westerns. All in all, it has high production standards and avoids the jovial cliche ridden excess found in most tv westerns. Calhoun was a very great, underrated actor, who co produced this series. Too bad he decided to pull the plug on it after two seasons.
