Rating: - Why Childhood Memories Are So Good
The 104 half-hour episodes of the television western "The Adventures of Kit Carson" were originally broadcast in local syndication during the 1951-55 television seasons. Of course it played for years after on
Saturday mornings.

The series fell into the "Kiddie" western category with shows like:"The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok", "The Lone Ranger", "Rin Tin Tin",and "Sgt. Preston of the Yukon". There were Kit Carson coloring books. The DVD release contains ten episodes of the series. There also are eleven volumes of 4-episode DVD's of the series listed elsewhere on Amazon.

Blond, rugged, All-American action film hero ("Thirty Seconds OverTokyo") Bill Williams played the title character. Don Diamond played Kit's ethnic sidekick El Toro. Diamond is probably best remembered as Corporal Reyes on Disney's "Zorro" series and "Crazy Cat" on "F-Troop".

The series was pretty straight forward, with few surprises, no shades of gray, and very few women.

Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.
