  • Trackdown stars the great Robert Culp, playing the hippest Texas Ranger on Fifties television. You'll also find Edward Platt -- Get Smart's Chief -- with a prominent part, but it's Broadway-actor, songwriter, and later mystery-novelist, Carleton Carpenter who claims the title role. This one has an unlikely twist, but the show, as always, swears it's adapted directly from the files of the Texas Rangers.
    This network print includes commercials from the primary sponsor Lucky Strike, but also Taryton dual-filter cigarettes. No matter what Jack Benny or Robert Culp say, please don't smoke.
    This is episode 31 of the second season and originally aired April 22, 1959.

    THYANK YOU FOR THIS great old time western. Of all those 303 or 40 westerns back in the day, I later on as time went by narrowed them down to a few good ones.
    Robert Culp was a fine, fine actor even when he was so young, starting out and many years later, he was still that extra fine actor. I never saw him perform in a bad film or in any interview, etc. My younger brother and I just loved Trackdown...this find on RUclips is wonderful. I hope you stay on. I'll try and help soon as able...old, poor and retired. Thanks again.

    The description of hypnosis in this story is accurate. Although Dr. Mesmer had been dead 60 years by the setting of this episode, the practice of hypnotism, which evolved from his largely debunked work, was still popular. As for the authenticity of the stories, my best guess is they are predominantly the invention of creative writers rather than real events. I say this because there was another western series airing around the same time titled "Tales of the Texas Rangers" which also purported to reenact real cases of the Rangers. In this latter instance there was a good deal of poetic license taken because I was told as much by someone who was in a position to know the facts. In 1978 I was assigned escort duty to Wilson Spiers, who was the head of the Texas Rangers and the Highway Patrol. I mentioned to him that I had watched reruns of the show as a young boy and asked him about it. He told me the producers had indeed requested copies of official reports of old cases and used them for inspiration, but the resultant episodes bore little resemblance to actual events.

      You need to do some more research on the dangers of Hypnosis
      by reading the free online book by Martin and Deidre Bobgan.
      The title of their book is 'Hypnosis: Medical, Scientific, or Occultic?'.
      Yes, a person can be Hypnotized against their will by certain
      techniques and drugs. Hypnosis has been in use for thousands
      of years and did not originate with Dr. Mesmer. Avoid hypnosis
      like the plague because it is a form of witchcraft.

    CHEERS from AUSTRALIA - HA - NEATO to see the old adverts - I wonder how many people died from smoking as a result of thinking they would look 'cooool' like in the adverts

      Enough for the United States government to ban cigarette advertising from TV and radio in 1971. I was 11 at the time but I still remember a couple of the cigarette commercials I saw as a child.
      One was for "Virginia Slims," which targeted women exclusively by trying to convince them that smoking was a "liberated" thing to do.
      Their slogan was "You've come a long way baby."

    As seen on Wednesdays at 8:30pm(et).
    American Tobacco {Lucky Strike} was the primary sponsor.
    25:18- Jack Benny was sponsored by Luckies on radio and TV for 15 years. At the end of the 1958-'59 season, they ended their association with him [Lever Brothers, for Lux and Lipton Tea, became his primary sponsor from 1959 through '62].
    Jack wasn't really a cigarette smoker, but American Tobacco sent him two cartons of Luckies {and two of Pall Mall} every week for about 20 years.
    29:22- "'THE MILLIONAIRE' is next, on the CBS TELEVISION NETWORK."

      In the old west, the biggest killer of lawmen wasn't outlaws, it was nipple chafe from their badges. True story.
