9. Incident of the Town in Terror:
Intro
by Gil. When Rowdy and a couple of cows come down with what appears to be anthrax, the residents of a nearby town through which the herd has to pass turn into a frightened and violent mob. A courageous pharmacist and his daughter nurse Rowdy back to health.
|
11. Incident of the Coyote Weed:
Intro
by Gil. A young drover on his first drive happens upon a dead man, hung by his heels, and a patch of coyote weed, which will kill beeves and men alike. The herd, meanwhile, is being followed by a menacing band of outlaws who have a mole installed among Gil's men.
|
12. Incident of the Chubasco:
Intro
by Gil. The drovers need to cross a dangerous plateau before dust storms come on. Short on time and short-handed, Gil hires a bunch of hands from a nearby town, among them a knife-wielding Noah Beery and a fancy-talking fellow who's running off with another man's wife.
|
18. Incident Below the Brazos:
Intro
by Gil. When their remuda stampedes and kills a man, the boys find themselves close to war with the farmers of Paradise Valley. The farmers' leader, a black-hatted Leslie Nielson, has a thing for the bereaved widow and wants to shed some drover blood for her sake. Martin Landau also guest stars.
|
19. Incident of the Dry Drive:
Intro
by Gil. A hard-as-nails cattleman who's built up his herd by rustling refuses to let Favor's beeves drink the water on what he claims is his land unless the boys give up half their herd.
|
20. Incident of the Judas Trap:
Intro
by Gil. Beset by a pack of German Shepherds, er, wolves, and unable to move the herd because of a swollen river, the boys team up with a woman rancher and her wolver boyfriend, a murderous rake with female issues. Meanwhile, Pete runs into an old flame, with unhappy results.
|
21. Incident in No Man's Land:
Intro
by Gil. Much to Rowdy's delight, the boys stumble across a town of women. The ladies are waiting for their men, prisoners doing hard time in a nearby quarry. Brian Keith guest stars at the ringleader of a jail break.
|
22. Incident of the Burst of Evil:
Intro
by Gil. The boys are warned that Comancheros are planning to attack the herd. Rowdy, meanwhile, rides into trouble trying to rescue a woman the Comancheros are holding. Some great interaction between Rowdy and an unusually playful Wishbone.
|
23. Incident of the Roman Candles:
Intro
by Gil. Pete and Quince find a boy out in the middle of nowhere setting off fireworks. He claims that his family was attacked by Indians a week before, but Gil suspects he's lying and threatens to beat the kid with a stick to get the truth out of him.

3. Incident of the Shambling Man:
Intro
by Gil. Anne Francis plays a widow trying to get her father-in-law, an addled old bare-knuckle boxer, committed to an asylum. Gil and Rowdy spend the episode away from the herd trying to help her.
|
5. Incident of the Thirteenth Man:
Intro
by Wishbone. In town to see a dentist, Wishbone and Rowdy get roped into serving on a jury. The defendant--the dentist cum undertaker himself--pretty much owns the town, which makes securing a guilty verdict nigh on impossible. Not a cow in sight.
|
8. Incident of the Stalking Death:
Intro
by Gil. After Gil wounds a puma, he leaves the herd to track down and kill the injured animal. His attraction to the widowed mother of a boy the puma killed is preempted by guest star Cesar Romero.
|
9. Incident of the Valley in Shadow:
Intro
by Gil. Driving the herd through Cheyenne country, the boys encounter a white woman who's been living in the tribe most of her life. A hefty reward for her return to her family sows dissension among the drovers.
|
10. Incident of the Blue Fire:
Intro
by Gil. A "diabolical" stranger joins the herd, which is bedeviled
simultaneously by Comanches and a storm-wrought stampede. A particularly
good episode in that one learns a lot about the cattle business. As for
the "blue fire", it's a reference to St. Elmo's Fire, which twice plays across the beeves' horns. Note the double credits for our man Charles Marquis Warren!
|
11. Incident at Spanish Rock:
No intro. A Mexican posse looking to capture one of the drovers, the son of a Mexican revolutionary, is helped by an amoral, cantina-dancing vixen. She catches the eye of guest star and future chief of the Hekawi Frank DeKova, among others.
|
12. Incident of the Druid Curse:
Intro
by Gil. Claude Akins guest stars as a disgruntled drover intent on despoiling a woman he finds on the prarie, the daughter of an archaeologist searching for Druid remains in Texas. The woman may be a cow or two short of a full herd--she's convinced she's going to die from a Druid curse--but she's luckier than most of us: Gil and she smooch big-time behind the wagons.
|
13. Incident at Red River Station:
Intro
by Gil. One of the drovers, while taking yet another bath--to Wishbone's disgust--in a nearby watering hole, runs across the body of a man dead from small pox. The doctor of the local, pox-infected town is a vaccine enthusiast, but the townsfolk are loath to trust his new-fangled medicine. It takes a man's man, i.e., Gil Favor, to bare his arm for the first vaccine.
|
8. Incident at Poco Tiempo:
Away from the herd on a financial errand, Rowdy and Quince encounter nuns
and murdering thieves in Poco Tiempo. Rowdy nearly turns a young novitiate
from her calling. Agnes Moorehead stars as the less comely sister.
|
10. Incident of the Buffalo Soldier:
Intro
by Rowdy. Off from the herd again, Rowdy meets with a somewhat hostile yet
self-sacrificing black cavalryman.
|
11. Incident of the Broken Word:
No intro. E.G. Marshall frames a drunken drover
(Dick York) for the
murder of a doctor.
|
12. Incident at the Top of the World:
No intro. Gil takes on as a drover a morphine-addicted Civil War veteran
(Robert Culp), whose unusual and sometimes violent behavior brings trouble to the crew.
|
13. Incident near the Promised Land:
No. intro. Arrived at Sedalia, Gil is unable to sell the herd because
of a national financial crisis. Lots of trouble for the crew, whose
plight is worsened by a surly old woman (Mary Astor).
|
14. Incident of the Big Blowout:
No intro. The boys whoop it up in Sedalia, which gets them into some
trouble with the town's authorities. Meanwhile, Gil, troubled by a
romantic setback, considers leaving the drover business for good. But
the end of the episode finds him headed for Philadelphia on a train,
determined to drive cattle again.
|
15. Incident of the Fish out of Water:
No intro. What an episode! A treasure trove of information for Gil
enthusiasts. We follow Gil on the train to Philadelphia
(see previous entry), where he is reunited with his daughters and their
over-protective guardian, his sister-in-law, after a more than two
year absence. Pete and Wishbone show up as well and wind up rescuing
a Pawnee chief from degradation in a wild west show. Gil's daughter
Maggie delivers the show-ending "Head 'em up, move 'em out."
|
16. Incident of the Road Back:
No intro. Rowdy, Quince, Wish, and Scarlett show up at the train
station--penniless, horseless, and hungry after their inter-drive
debauch--to await the arrival of Gil from Philadelphia. But soon
after his return Gil is arrested as a horse thief and himself robbed
of $50,000. Get this: Nobody says "Head 'em up, move 'em out."
|
17. Incident of the New Start:
No intro. The normal hierarchy of the drive is disturbed when an owner
(John Dehner) insists on supplanting Gil as the trail boss, a
demand which doesn't sit well with the demoted Rowdy and the other
regulars.
|
18. Incident of the Running Iron:
No intro. Quince is arrested and sentenced to hang for cattle rustling
but is saved by Gil, who uncovers the identity of the real evil-doers
(Darryl Hickman
and William Shallert [note the Dobie Gillis connection]).
|
19. Incident near Gloomy River:
No intro. Gil and Rowdy get caught up in a love triangle involving a
drover, his malevolent "brother" (John Cassavetes, who would
go on to murder someone on Columbo), and the girl next door.
|
20. Incident of the Boomerang:
No intro. The boys encounter an Australian cattleman--who is not as
naive as he at first appears--, his ostensibly
irredeemable bride-to-be, and their boomerang-throwing scout. The
Comanche chief Tawyawp is played by Frank de Kova, chief
Wild Eagle of the Hekawi.
|
21. Incident of his Brother's Keeper:
Intro
by Gil. Stuck in town awaiting a telegram from Sedalia, Pete gets
involved in a domestic dispute involving a paralyzed Jack Lord, his
unpleasant wife, and his equally unpleasant brother.
|
22. Incident in the Middle of Nowhere:
No intro. Seeking a pass through the Dead Mountains, Gil and Rowdy encounter a mining operation worked by Indians and run by an eccentric Irishman.
|
23. Incident of the Phantom Bugler:
Intro
by Gil. A band of men, mostly former veterans, under the command
of their former captain, attempt to extort money from Gil and the gang
at a river crossing.
|
24. Incident of the Lost Idol:
No intro. The boys encounter the children and dying wife of an
escaped convict, Claude Akins, who means to reunite his family
in Mexico.
|
25. Incident of the Running Man:
No intro. Rowdy, on a cattle-buying errand a day's ride from the herd,
is suspected of murder and must, while on the run from the law, get
word to Camp Henley that the real culprits mean to take it by force.
|
26. Incident of the Painted Lady:
Intro by Gil. Gil and the boys are held
responsible for the offenses of another drover, a certain Thad Clemens,
who cheated ranchers in the area of $15,000. Gil sets off to find
the culprit and gets involved in the troubles of Clemens and his
gambling thief of a son.
|
27. Incident before Black Pass:
No intro. Pete and Rowdy are taken as hostages by the Kiowa to ensure
that their dying chief White Eyes will be safely hidden from the
cavalry among Gil's drovers. Leonard Nimoy plays the war-hungry
Anko.
|
29. Incident of the Night on the Town:
No intro. A suit brought against Gil by a spoiled rich woman forces
him to sell her the herd and agree to become her next "foreman". We
see Gil dance in evening dress!
|
30. Incident of the Wager on Payday:
No intro. A bank president's son robs his father as a joke, but his
partner in crime isn't in it for the same reasons. Rowdy gets caught
up in the business when the thieves steal his horse as well as
supplies and money from the chuck wagon. During his absence from the
herd, the rest of the crew bets on whether Rowdy stole the cash box.
Jim Quince here displays his willingness, manifested now and again, to
turn on his friends. Note that the Painted Lady gaming establishment
is in the background in the town of Kimberly. This was the place
which figured in the Incident of the Painted Lady.
Can't be sure, but I doubt that this was meant to be the same town.
|
1. Rio Salado:
No intro. A mighty fine episode. At the start of a new drive, after
six weeks at home, Rowdy encounters in Rio Salado his drunken loser
of a father, Dan Yates, who ran out on the family years before for
no good reason. The father shoots in the back a bandido who had been
decent to Rowdy previously, this in order to collect a $5000 reward.
But this ignoble action just alienates Rowdy further. In the end,
Dan Yates is killed by the bandido's men. Now, these incidents lead to
Gil losing the herd he was going to lead, so this new drive is going
to be different. Rather than working for the owners of his herd, Gil
is going to buy a nearby herd of 800 cattle, then pick up brush
catttle along the way to Sedalia. The drovers stand to make 25% of
the profits. The episode ends with "round 'em up", not "head 'em up,
move 'em out." Other stuff of interest too, attributable, no doubt,
to the fact that this is the first episode directed by Endre Bohem
rather than Charles Marquis Warren. Note that the title of the show now
comes after the opening song, and the credits for the writers and
director come at the beginning of the show rather than the end. And,
of course, "Incident at/by/against/near/behind/etc." does not appear
in the title.
|
2. The Sendoff:
No intro. Beating the brush for scrub cattle, Gil and the boys come upon the
remains of a wagon train and its guilt-ridden wagon master (Darren
McGavin), who had deserted the wagon when it was attacked by Indians.
Meanwhile, the mother of one of the dead men from the wagon train
arrives (with Claude Akins) looking for her sonĖs grave. (Note the
episode-specific ending: the priest who had said a prayer by way of sending
the boys out on a successful drive, waves goodbye under the credits.)
|
3. The Long Shakedown:
No intro. As the new drive gets underway, Gil is mighty surly, convinced
as he is that his regulars are past their prime and a danger to themselves
and the rest of the crew. But as events show, experience with cows
has its advantages. (Go to:
|
4. Judgment at Hondo Seco:
No intro. A letter from his niece Joanna brings Jim Quince to Hondo Seco,
where his brother Matt (Ralph Bellamy) serves as hanginĖ judge.
George Petrie of Honeymooners fame has a small role as the deputy.
|
5. The Lost Tribe:
No intro. Some one hundred Cheyenne under a certain Chief Little Hawk--the
father of Pete NolanĖs deceased wife!--get Pete to lead them south of the
border.
|
6. The Inside Man:
No intro. Gil takes on a drover, Clay Forrester (Charles Gray, who would
later become a regular), who is in on a scheme to take over the herd, but
who turns over a new leaf during his tenure in the Favor outfit.
|
7. The Black Sheep:
No intro. RowdyĖs two-week stint as a sheepherder--this in a world in
which sheep men and drovers detest and despise one another--softens to
a degree his view of the other side.
|
8. The Prarie Elephant:
No intro. Wishbone serves as guide for a circus headed by a violently jealous
clown (who asks Gil early on in the episode what beeves are). Billy
Barty guest stars.
|
9. The Little Fishes:
No intro. News of a financial panic prompts Gil (a Ïtall, pleasant-looking fellow
about thirty...Ó) to ride his drovers hard and take a dry-as-dust shortcut.
Meanwhile, fish-breeder Burgess Meredith (with wife Phyllis
Coates!), transporting cannisters of shad with a view to introducing
the breed to the west, slows down the crew, who are strangely fascinated
by the fish. GilĖs surly manner nearly leads to mutiny, and brings one
to wonder why he doesnĖt just share his concerns about the panic with the
crew. Note, at any rate, the irregularity of the credits since Endre Bohem took
over: initially the producer was mentioned at the end of the show, now
itĖs at the beginning; and special guest stars sometimes are mentioned at
the beginning and end, but this time only at the beginning.
(It may interest some that the California Department of Fish and Game
is acknowledged at the end of the show. One wonders how historical are the
details of today's episode.)
|
10. The Blue Spy:
No intro. The droversĖ war-related hostilities resurface with the appearance in
camp of an
actress who happens to have been a Yankee spy during the war. Gil, ever a
proponent of law, is here the voice of reason and reconciliation.
|
11. The Gentleman's Gentleman:
No intro. A dying lord bequeaths his valet to gentleman Gil Favor. The valet tries to
treat our boy Gil like nobility. Meanwhile, buffalo hunters threaten the herd and a
nearby town. Jay Silverheels has a small part as an Indian guide.
|
12. Twenty-Five Santa Clauses:
No intro. While GilĖs away from the herd, the boys are taken in by a con man
(Ed Wynn) and his family, playing the Ïdying boyÓ routine.
|
14. The Captain's Wife:
No intro. Gil, Quince, Collins, and Hey Soos help defend Fort Tracy, which
has been left virtually undefended because of the selfish scheming of the
ambitious wife (Miss Barbara Stanwyck) of the fort's captain.
Gil exhibits his innate superiority to the rest of mankind by assuming
command of the fort's defenses. When she is dying, the captain's wife
laments never having found a man like Gil who could "command" her and
make her "content to be a woman." Yikes.
|
15. The Peddler:
No intro. Endearing story of a Jewish peddler (Shelley Berman) who finds
an unlikely home with a beautiful Indian woman whom he had protected from
George Kennedy.
|
16. The Woman Trap:
No intro. The boys run into "a whole herd of good-lookin' women"
(among them Marion Ross) bound for Fort Worth (with wagon
master Alan Hale) as something like mail order brides.
|
17. The Boss's Daughters:
No intro. Gil's daughters Maggi and Gillian visit their father together with
their aunt Eleanor, who catches the eye of a wealthy rancher who would
like to step into Gil's paternal boots. Maggi and Gillian together end the
show with "head 'em up, move 'em out."
|
18. The Deserters' Patrol:
No intro. Gil's natural leadership abilities manifest themselves when he and
Pete are commissioned by the U.S. Army to lead some deserters who were
captured by the Pawnee back to a sorely undermanned fort. At the end of
the episode, Pete is asked to remain as a scout in the army, and he (with
some hesitation) accepts! So, Pete's off the drive.
|
19. The Greedy Town:
No intro. A woman offers a town $300,000 if the residents will acquit her
dead son of a crime he certainly committed and erect a monument to him.
(Some similarities with "Der Besuch der alten Dame" by Duerrenmatt.)
Introduction of Clay Forrester as a regular character. He does not, it
seems to me, come off as a particularly likable fellow. J. Pat
O'Malley guest stars.
|
20. Grandma's Money:
No intro. On an errand in Indian Springs, Rowdy pals around with a
sticky-fingered old lady.
|
21. The Pitchwagon:
No intro. Pitch-man Buddy Ebsen joins the boys in various schemes
to make money for a drover's widow and children. No Gil, but Rowdy sings!
("Beyond the Sun", which is the show's background music.) And he closes
the show with "head 'em up, move 'em out." Jack Elam also guest
stars.

|
30. The Gray Rock Hotel:
No intro. Gil leads a bunch of his sick drovers to the eponymous hotel, where they encounter a certain Lottie. Though initially concerned about being one woman alone with six cowboys ("Slow down there, Mr. Favor, it's a long night," she says when he dares touch her elbow), she agrees to stay the night to nurse the men. But think "nurse" as in Kathy Bates in Misery: Lottie is in fact a manipulative, man-hating psychopath who likes her men dead.

Eric Fleming movies
|
 The Glass Bottom Boat
Doris Day mistaken as a spy! Sounds like a light-hearted 60's romp to me. In addition to our man Eric Fleming, the movie also features Arthur Godfrey (by the way, am I the only one who can sing about dotting the "i" for the inventors?), Paul Lynde, Dick Martin, and Dom DeLuise.
|
 Curse of the Undead
Eric Fleming stars as Preacher Dan Young in this, yes, vampire western. How cool is that?
|
 Queen of Outer Space
Eric stars with Zsa Zsa Gabor, dahling, in this hilarious sci-fi flick. A reviewer at the Internet Movie Database says the movie "reeks of cardboard sets, silly dialogue, and more phallic symbols, hot babes, and sexual innuendo than you can wave a stick (or laser gun) at."
|
 Conquest of Space
Eric stars as Captain Barney Merritt in this story about the first manned expedition to Mars. A reviewer at amazon.com numbers among the movie's merits its inclusion of: "MST3K ready dialog! The obligitory accidental weightlessness scene! ... The first ever burial in space! The first ever snowfall on Mars!" In other words, you can't lose!
