Having never seen this show before,a strange role for Edgar to play after seeing him in Petticoat Junction, but then, this is not the “Judge Roy Bean” I’m use to seeing either.
Good family show.
I love westerns, I grew up watching westerns and this is probably why I’am such
a fan today. Modern westerns are okay and I’ll still watch because it is a western,
however, its nothing like a good old classic one.
Please retrovision do not stop or change this classic and very interesting site. Since I’ve discovered U I hardly watch any thing else. This type of programming is
what I’ve been searching for. Thank U.
Any movie that portrays Judge Roy Bean Is my type of western. I enjoyed watching this one as well.
I updated this with 4 more episodes tonight.
