>>I always thought of myself as cool as Steve McQueen... yeah right.:)

>Yeah, Steve McQueen and that sawed off hogleg Winchester. Great show. I think I remember hearing someplace that in 1958 14 of the top 20 TV shows were westerns. I have the DVDs of HGWT and the show holds up remarkably well. Considering that was the age of Leave it to Beaver etc, HGWT and Wanted were like The Shield and the Sopranos.

Oh, there were bunch of them including Wagon Train, The Big Valley, Maverick, Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Rawhide, The Rifleman, Wild Wild West and The High Chaparral.

Yeah... where have all the cowboys gone?
