Go west...and go loco. Yes, Captain Parmenter and
his buffoons in blue are ready again to untame the
wilderness in TV's wackiest Western spoof. Wrangler
Jane still pines after Parmenter, the Hekawis still
plot after profits and Sergeant O'Rourke and
Corporal Agarn have more get-rich-quick schemes up
their regimental sleeves. A plains-load of comic
guest stars joins the fun, including Phil Harris as
a 147-year-old Indian chief, Harvey Korman as a
Prussian balloonist, Paul Lynde as a singing Mountie,
Milton Berle as a flim-flam medicine man and Vincent
Price as a spooky Transylvanian count. Enlist now
for a second comedy tour: the out-of-its-mind and
ahead-of-its-time 31-episode final season of F
Troop! |

F Troop is set at Fort Courage, Kansas, a
fictional Army outpost in the West, in 1865, the
year the Civil War ended. The commanding officer at
Fort Courage is the gallant but chronically clumsy
and accident-prone Captain Wilton Parmenter (Ken
Berry), the descendant of a long line of military
leaders. He is awarded the Medal of Honor after
accidentally instigating the final charge at
Appomattox: he is meant to call "retreat", but he
sneezes just as he is about to speak and his troops
mistake this for the order "Charge!" His superiors
soon realize his ineptitude and post him to remote
Fort Courage, a dumping ground for the least useful
or trustworthy soldiers. |
