"Cheyenne"
"The Argonauts"
-- Episode 1.3 (Nov. 1, 1955)
Rod Taylor appeared in an early episode of this hour-long Western anthology
series, which originally was one of three rotating series in ABC's "Warner
Brothers Presents."
Clint Walker starred as Cheyenne Bodie, a former frontier scout who drifted
through the Old West, traveling from one adventure to another.
In this episode, Cheyenne encounters Clancy (Rod Taylor) and Duncan (Edward
Andrews), two men who have set out to prospect for gold. Proceeding together,
the three strike it rich, but the growing sacks of gold dust breed suspicion
amongst the campers. Clancy emerges as the good guy (of course), overcoming
these emotions as well as a gunshot wound. The episode is loosely the same
plot as the classic movie "Treasure of the Sierra Madre," with Humphrey Bogart
and John Huston. |
