Rawhide on Friday nights. My grandmother, who came to live with us, and I never missed a single episode.

The Rifleman can't be beat in my book. When I grow up I'm going to be just like Lucas.

This opening is from the pilot and Chuck Connors shot this without the set-screw.

They thought he might hurt himself so they added the set-screw and then worked it into the show.

In the late 1950s, the Saturday morning lineup on CBS (we only received two channels, ABC was the other) was almost all cowboy shows and my brothers and I loved them all. It featured shows like Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, Rin Tin Tin, The Lone Ranger, Annie Oakley, and The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok starring Guy Madison and Andy Devine. Great memories.
