It returns, my friend. It will return. There are only about 7 episodes in which it isn't heard.
Be patient, it won't be gone for long.I know one show at a time but--you wouldnt happen to be doing this for Rawhide are ya? I havent bought season 1 yet but have been eying it since its for sale for two sawbucks at the: Cracker Barrel Restaurant ;-))

Be patient, it won't be gone for long.Heh heh, it did. i think it was in the Teacher episode? which was a good one BTW. Had Andrew Duggan, Jack Hogan, Peter Breck in them as Confederate Vets & Jack Albertson.

It was written by Johnny Western as a thank you to Richard Boone and Andy McLacklaghlen (sp?) for the episode in which he guest-starred. The music was added retroactively to the earlier episodes. It was in the episode No Visitors.
I noticed the theme disappeared after that episode. I was wondering when it would be used again? :-))

The first 3 eps of disc 3 season 1 of: Have Gun Will Travel. The third ep was the first time they played the Paladin theme.

Hi P/ and thank you as well. also, ive always enjoyed James Best even as Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane ;-)) He's good and I also enjoy his Guitar playing. I just finished a great episode with June Lockhart as a Dr and Whit Bissell as a Store owner. The more of the show I see-the more I enjoy it. I also like how at the beginning intro part of each episode-he has a different introduction line-which is a line from each episode. i think in May-ill more than likely buy 1-2 more seasons and keep that up till I get the entire series.
Im hoping to start getting more Westerns on DvD and will probably go for Maverick next.

I forgot to mention, that in the 3rd episode on disc 2--I noticed that Walter Brennan Jr, had the part of a Cowboy. I never knew he had a Son who dipped his boot into the acting pool. ;-))

Which did you like best? The first 20 or so weren't the best, except for those written by Roddenberry. The next I'll review is an interesting one with June Lockhart and Grant Withers as guest stars.
Hi P/ So far I would say the ones i liked best that ive seen are most any after the first episode. They are well written and have a very good set of guest stars and such. Ep 2 w/ Charles Bronson was excellent, and the one following with Claude Akins was good but would have been better had Akins had more of a part in it. I dont remember which one that had Michael pate in it--but that was another very well made episode. Im on Disc 2 now-saw three more today and thought all three were at least a 9 of 10 if not a 10. The last one I saw had James Best, William Schallert in it and it was very well made. If the series gets better? I knwo ill be a huge fan of it.
When I started out with Wanted Dead or Alive--I didnt expect much but--I swear--every episode till you get the the very last one--should rank no lower than an 8-9 on a scale of 10. The last one had Noah Berry Jr in it--and it was lame at best. Anyway, I also greatly enjoy Strother martin, and he has been in two episodes so far--one I saw today--and he was good--real good. Glad to see that he won an Oscar? for his role of the Warden in: Cool Hand Luke--he was good but underrated in my opinion.
PS, your doing an excellent job posting about each episode-I never thought of doing it that way. I am still in the midst of posting my own take on every episode of Wanted Dead or Alive on another site and after that ill be doing every season of Daniel Boone-then most likely every episode of Have Gun...... Im also about to do all the COMBAT episodes.

3 more eps of: Have Gun Will Travel. Ill say one thing-this series sure had its fair share of Guest Stars. Ive seen many uncredited (at least in the opening credits in the part (on DvD) where you can go to see who the guest is that episode) for stars like: Claude Akins, Willis Bouchey, and so many others.

Great suff on he series. Till yesterday, I have never seen any of the episodes-at least in full-except for a few that were played in 1980-81? when there was a channel called: CBN? Christian Broadcast Network, and all they played on Sundays were old Western TV shows and then in the afternoons to evenings-Western movies. I remember starting Sundays out with shows they played 2 episodes in a row of shows like; Sky King, The Cisco Kid, The Lone Ranger, The Rifleman, F Troop, Rin Tin Tin (which I never could get "in to" Wagon Train, Rawhide, and some others. Man I miss those days.

Surprised that I forgot to mention yesterday that I saw the first two eps of season 1 of: Have Gun Will Travel. The 1st episodes id give a 8 of 10 for and it starred Jack Lord. Ep 2 starred Charles Bronson and id give it a 10 of 10.

ringo you wont be disappointed with have gun.the 1st season is great and iv'e ordered the second season and i hope it lives up to the 1st.
Hi Ringo, so far ive greatly enjoyed it. i would be watching 2 more eps today but-had to get laundry done before the thunderstorms are supposed to hit. Anyway, im already looking at getting season 2 as well. Ive always enjoyed Richard Boone in whatever he was in.
PS, ill also be surprised if Bill does not have any Have Gun images in his magnificent collection.

I just started watching the 1st season to this series as of today at lunch time. The first episode had Jack Lord as its guest star and I thought it was a pretty good episode. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 the best--I would give it an 8. The 2nd episode starred Charles Bronson and on a scale of 1-10--its easily a 10. Hope the rest of the series scores well.
