    Those were my Granddad and Dad’s days before they before they started using profanity or political correctness in westerns. You try to find a decent western today without them cursing in it. Today’s westerns would put The Singing Cowboys to shame.

    I watch Burns and Allen and then The Beverly Hillbillies every morning before leaving for work. It’s a sure fire way to get my day off to a good start.

    “Oh good, an episode I haven’t seen!” This is when “age-related memory issues” actually come in handy!

    I’m not sure if I’ve seen any of the Randolph Scott movies, but I remember in Blazing Saddles when the sheriff is trying to rally the people of the town he says, “You’d do it for Randolph Scott” and they all remove their hats in tribute.

    I have a fair number of “Western” films on DVD, along with a huge collection of Alfred Hitchcock films and TV series.

    I watch one or more of them occasionally when I need a diversion…

    Scott was sledom a cowboy actor, not a lawman actor. He played teamster, newspaper publisher, and a lot of other western roles that no other lead played. He was also enherited an haute couture house in Roberta (the operetta), fameous for people counting the number of times he said, “swell!”.

    I can’t believe that no one mentioned the Coop in High Noon.

    There was sometimes a history lesson in Gunsmoke, like when the railroad bought up everybody’s land. The one that stuck in my mind was the episode where the town is suffering as the well goes dry. Now that the west coast is living that nightmare again, we understand how people felt back then.
