I was born in 1955. I am finding so many good shows from back then that I have never heard of before. Just found another one today starring Charles Bronson called "Man With a Camera" (1958-1960) rated 7.5 on Internet Movie Data Base (IMDB).

Bronson eventually traded in his camera for a Wildey!! I bought a Wildey because of that movie!!

77 Sunset Strip and the Fugitive .. I was pre-teen and really "dug" the car... Fugitive was a good show, but if you were older you knew he wouldn't get caught because the show would be over ..?? glad I didn't have a clue .. It was a "Quinn Martin production", I remember hearing that on quite a few shows.

The Fugitive is 60s. It's on way late Sunday eve on MeTV. I try to stay up, but rarely make it. Basically the same plot for 120 episodes. But Janssen was so good it didn't matter.
I think Janssen has a cameo in 'It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World'. I can't find anything on the net. But when watching an uncut, unedited version I think I spotted him near the end when everyone is in Santa Rosita. He's one of the cops in a squad car.
 
Wow, never heard of that show before this.
But back then, i was way too young to be watching something like that on the tv.
I'm a 1953 guy. :rolleyes:
 
A lot of great westerns from that time period. Cheyenne, The Rifleman, Have Gun will Travel, Rawhide.
 
I think I got all the 'Lawman' episodes watched. John Russell, Peter Brown, Peggy Castle. Pretty good, but nothing compares to the original 30-minute Gunsmoke episodes.
