This is a great Western TV show that I enjoyed watching as a child. The acting and story lines are great. I agree with all the other superlatives you can read in the other reviews.
However, these are not the original full length shows; they are edited versions used for syndication. I estimate that there are about 4 to 5 minutes cut out of each episode of this 1/2 hour show. The editing is often terribly done too - it is usually very obvious where the cuts were made. In addition, when you look at the ending credits you will often find a character listed (i.e. "Clerk", "Bartender", etc.) that you realize you never saw in the episode you just watched. Then you realize that was a character from a scene that was cut out.
I've watched most of the first disk and some of the episodes on disks 2 & 3. Once of the episodes on the first disk was edited so badly that the plot line is incomprehensible. In this episode a cattleman driving a herd of cattle intends to kill the local town's sheriff and tear up the town. We never learn why he is so mad at the sheriff or town and thus the motivations of the characters and overall plot are total mysteries.
But the disks are worth it anyway as this is too good of a show to miss. Each disk has a very nice special feature included on it.

They don't make good shows like this any more. It's a shame. Love the old Westerns! This is good show. It has quite a few now famous actors just making the Hollywood scene.

This series has some great lessons and depicts an historical time period. However, most of the episodes suffer from too much editing. They appear to have original commercials edited out as well as some period of regular episode footage. Almost all episodes have some part of the plot missing. Will and Jeff talk about their conversation or some part of the episode that is not there in the edited version on these discs. Overall good stories, but you sometimes have to deduce the missing parts to make sense of the remaining story. I would buy this series again only if the entire episodes were present.

This series took me back to weekends in my early years waiting for this show to come onto TV for the afternoon. Definitely nostalgia involved in the enjoyment but even for that, the series tends to still stand up to a watchable event. Probably more aware on the limited background shots and simple style of preaching style of dialogue, but it has been fascinating to watch the actors who appeared as guest artists in the series. If you liked the serial western series, well worth watching otherwise may not your thing!!
