Presents, a " wheel program" that alternated three different series in rotation. The series began as a part of Warner Bros. Clyde Howdy appeared as a variety of characters in 49 episodes Chuck Hicks can be seen playing assorted characters in 15 episodes and Lane Chandler appears as different characters in 10 episodes. Jones appeared as "Smitty" Smith in episodes 1, 2 and 4 but other than that there were no other continuing characters, although several actors were frequently used in guest or bit roles. Clint Walker as Cheyenne Bodie (107 episodes).Johnny Kent is wrongly accused of the murder. He seeks to arrest a murderer even though this brings back bad memories for everyone, including Cheyenne himself. This causes some confusion with the viewer as it was always said that Cheyenne was raised by a Cheyenne tribe after unknown Indians had killed his parents.Īfter returning to the town, he is elected sheriff. In Season 5, Episode 1 "The Long Rope", which originally aired on September 26, 1960, Cheyenne returns to the town where he was raised by a family whose father/husband was lynched when he was a youth. In the series, the character Bodie maintains a positive and understanding attitude toward the Native Americans, despite the death of his parents. He was taken by Cheyenne Indians when he was 10 years old, who then raised him, and he left them by choice when he was 18 years old. The episode reveals that Bodie's parents were killed by Indians, tribe unknown. It features James Garner (who had briefly been considered for the role of Cheyenne but could not be located until after Walker had already been cast ) as a guest star, but with higher billing given to Ann Robinson as Garner's intended bride. The first episode, "Mountain Fortress", is about robbers pretending to be Good Samaritans. The show starred Clint Walker, a native of Illinois, as Cheyenne Bodie, a physically large cowboy with a gentle spirit in search of frontier justice who wanders the American West in the days after the American Civil War.
