Reviewer From IMDb.com:
My 10 rating is probably, no it is biased. Steve McQueen
was one of my all time favorite actors. Sure, this show was
hokey, but for a show that was 30 minutes, it packed a lot
into it. I was too young to watch the originals, but over
the years I was able to watch episodes here and there. Now
watching them again on MeTV, it brings back so many good
memories. For me, nothing beats a good western. Especially
when it stars Steve McQueen. - JohnnyM531
