I watched all these western 60 years ago; I guess you could say they were pretty important in developing my sense of right and wrong; of the good guy and gal overcoming adversity. Now, 60 years later, I am overcome with emotion by that same sense of morality; we could all profit by returning to those values.
These writers will kill anybody... Was the little girl's death really necessary? What was the purpose? It's a too common theme in many episodes - the victim / victims die. For some apparent 'shock' value, I guess, to enforce the moral lesson. But it really sucks, and gets dang tiresome. Any episodes with 'Indians', I just skip, the writing is most often too terrible. I appreciate the lesson, but the method seems extreme. And I'm not sure it was very successful. And it is damn depressing too.
Chicsartorial, please tell me why you bother watching these episodes at all if you don’t like them ? My own habit is to just delete and move on whenever one does not interest me. What good does it accomplish for you to type a complaint…….as if SOMEONE is going to solve your problem. I truly am interested to hear your response.
I watch them because most episodes have writing at least good, often great. You never know until the end. Right? As to my passionate critique, it is a cathartic act -- I am far too emotionally invested in these shows. Watching a plot develop, I wonder what's motivating the writer, why this or that and not the other, and because that writer is a product of the times, the plot reflects popular or desirous tropes based on real-life cultural norms, values, and mores of that era. Ergo, to those who are interested in such deep thoughts, I wanted to point out to this wild anomaly: damn horrible writing. @@carolcole570
