    Star Tek: Enterprise 2.23 “Regeneration” In a creepy opening reminiscent of John Carpenter’s The Thing, a group of Starfleet researchers find a pair of cybernetic bodies buried in the Arctic ice. Turns out the supposed corpses are not quite dead…in fact, they are members of the Borg (in a clever...

    22. Gunsmoke - 13.22 "The Jackals" Generally speaking, my favorite episodes of these later color seasons of Gunsmoke are the "solo" Matt Dillon ones, which usually find our stalwart Dodge City marshal doggedly tracking down some very bad men and bringing them to justice. In this rugged action...

    I haven't seen The Charge at Feather River, Bob (though I'd like to, preferably in 3D), but I have seen that Cheyenne episode. It's a good one. Stephanie Griffin, one of the two actresses playing the kidnapped white women in "West of the River," also co-starred in The Last Wagon. Speaking of...

    Ozzie & Harriet Release From Sam Nelson?

    Thanks for sharing that video, Mark! A cute scene. I think there must also be a few more minutes of dialogue to close out the story that were also cut from this episode, as the main story - of David not getting to spend any time alone with the beautiful Carol Morris (who was actually crowned...

    Ozzie & Harriet Release From Sam Nelson?

    I don't know the answer to your music question, Lou, sorry...but I remember being annoyed when viewing "A Date with Miss Universe" that it was the syndicated version, as the actual episode story was really hacked up to make room for not just one, but two song performances by Rick. Seems like...

    Colt .45 - The Complete Series - Coming to Blu-Ray on March 12th '24 (Warner Archive)

    Linda Lawson alert!! Looks like this is one of the episodes featuring Donald May in the lead as Sam Colt, after Wayde Preston had walked off the set. Thanks for the screengrabs, Neal!

    17. Whispering Smith (1946) Alan Ladd is another actor who I always have a lot of time for; whether in westerns, noir or adventure films, he tends to deliver the goods. The landmark western Shane is of course his most famous cowboy picture, but by no means the only one worth watching. This one...

Tall Man Riding (1955) Larry Madden (Randolph Scott) returns to the town of Little River to exact revenge against ranch owner Tuck Ordway (Robert Barrat) for publicly whipping him years earlier, burning down his home and breaking up his relationship with Ordway's daughter, Corinna (Dorothy...

    Colt .45 - The Complete Series - Coming to Blu-Ray on March 12th '24 (Warner Archive)

    According to Asendia international tracking, my copy of Colt .45 was dispatched from the U.S. late Wednesday evening (3/13)...which means I'll probably receive it here sometime early next week (he said hopefully. :))

    After my viewing of Robber's Roost yesterday, I thought I'd take a look at George Montgomery's appearances on a couple of well-known TV westerns: 14. Wagon Train - 1.17 "The Jesse Cowan Story" Two brothers, Bob (Mort Mills) and Jesse Cowan (Montgomery) return to their home after the Civil War...

    I like Keoma quite a bit, a fine late-period spaghetti western and Franco Nero and Woody Strode are very good in it...but boy, am I in 100% agreement with you on the "worst song" part. The incessant warbling (screeching?) by the female singer throughout the film does kind of set a bizarre...

    Terrific reviews of those two Rifleman episodes, Randall! Thanks for the great screencaps, plus all of your usual fascinating historical background, including details about contemporary events when these two episodes originally aired. I've seen "Heller" before and enjoyed it very much...though...

    13. Robber's Roost (1955) Have had the Kino Blu-Ray of this one for a while now, and since I've liked the handful of George Montgomery-starring westerns I've seen in the past, figured it was time to take it down off the shelf and give it a spin. Glad I did, as this adaptation of Zane Grey's...

    Yes, it is a sensational score. There's also the great scene near the end of the film where Bickford rides into Blanco Canyon, alone at first, framed by the massive cliffs behind him, to be gradually joined by Heston, and finally, the rest of his men come galloping up alongside, Bickford never...

    12. The Big Country (1958) Fabulous William Wyler western epic, gorgeously composed and shot, impeccably acted, with a rousing score by Jerome Moross. Gregory Peck (who co-produced the film with Wyler) stars as Jim McKay, a former sea captain from back east who arrives at the sprawling Texas...
