Caps from first and episode 32 the last epsiodes 1 & 32
Pilot, introductory episode slammed by the critics, wouldn't last they said...what did they know? What did they say 32 episodes later?
I said WOW...an I'm still saying it!!!
Series 2, Episode 59, The Gift & Episode 50, The Bride
It became very soon obvious this was not an ordinary Cowboys and Indians, gun-slinger, the good guy rides off into the horizon, Western series.
This was a series of stories about a family, father and sons who loved and cared for each other.
