I loved those 50s/early 60s tv westerns. And, I loved my heroes to be tall back then, and they didn't come any taller than James Arness.
Thankfully, quite a few of those stars are still with us. For example, I'm pretty sure Dale Robertson, Clint Walker and Hugh O'Brian are still around.
However, my all time favourite Jock(The range Rider)Mahoney has been gone for quite a while now.
Luckily, releases of dvds of those old shows have become more and more readily available
