Does any one else watch old westerns on TV?

[Louie Detroit]

TV shows or movies? I have a channel or two that constantly come with the 50-70’s stuff. Often tacky but it’s Americana.

[Swany00]

yup, GRIT and INSP every once in awhile (dish network channels)

Weekly

Joel Mcrea.
Randolph Scott
John Wayne
James Garner
Clint Eastwood

And many more on Grit & Outlaw

[Aerovette]

Sadly, I can't. My dad LOVED them and even flipping channels past them makes me sad. He had them on all the time.

[slewfoot]

My dad was a fan of The Dirty Dozen. I try to watch it whenever it comes on. Kind of like hanging out with him.

My 84 year-old buddy does, black and white shit from the '30s and '40s, WTF.

He's retarded anyway.

Gunsmoke everyday

[A/E]

Nah ~

But I did watch " Yellowstone " and it's Prequels on Paramount +

[Frankie the Fink]

Hell yeah ! Free PLUTO TV has separate channels for the 'greats' of the 50s/60s, a Paladin channel, Gunsmoke channel, Rawhide channel, Lone Ranger channel, etc..

Some of its corny, some comedic, lots of simple drama but nearly all of it still watchable. And a stark contrast to the woke bullshit we have today - no vile dialogue and minorities represented in realistic proportions and in important but not inflated roles...saw a black trail hand on Rawhide just last evening..

Native-Americans however get screwed quite a few times depicted as savage murderers...

Yellowstone was awesome. And I’m not typically one to get into those series type movies. But I was hooked good on that one.
It ended poorly though.

[Frankie the Fink]

Didn't watch Yellowstone even though I like Costner, but, predictably, every city yokel with a few bucks is now buying a mini-ranch in Montana, including a neighbor who moved there recently. It'll be another ruined locale like so many...

[04 commemorative]

Growing up my father watched westerns,westerns and westerns.

What's his member name here?

[Frankie the Fink]

I remember Fess Parker in the Davy Crockett movie "King of the Wild Frontier", within a week every kid, including my inner-city ass, had a coonskin cap and a toy flintlock pistol.

Goofy twit running around the grubby streets of Pittsburgh 'huntin grizz'. Great times.

[Taurus]

When I do specifically sit and watch TV for a break, it's usually a western.

Gunsmoke
Laramie
Life and Times of Wyatt Earp
Tales of Wells Fargo

[GTOguy]

Yep. '50's--'70's are my favorites, but some '30's-'40's are epic (Stagecoach, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, etc.) and some 90's stuff is excellent (Unforgiven, Tombstone, The Quick and the Dead, etc.) I love the genre.

I know, you probably know what movie Steven Spielberg says was the greatest ever made and somebody tried to qualify that and say, "you mean the greatest Western" and Spielberg countered and so, "No, the greatest movie".

"The Searchers" with John Wayne..

[Humanoid 3.0]

Spielberg said he considered "The Godfather," as "the greatest American film ever made https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/movies/2025/04/30/steven-spielberg-greatest-american-film-godfather/83362579007/#:~:text=Then%2C%20Spielberg%20said%20he%20considered,his%20face%20with%20his%20hands.

:confused5:

You're 84, live a few miles from me, and we've been lunch buddies for years. Myself and everybody who knows you thinks you're an idiot.

At 84, are you so senile you're forgotten all that? :island14:

Apparently he named several such films as that over the years.

Eastwood was a relatively latecomer to western movies, although he was a regular on the Rawhide series.... Many great films prior to his arrival on the big screen, Shane, The Man who Shot Liberty Valence and dozens of others...

[slewfoot]

Watching "Witchita" right now

[donuts]

I like watching Bonanza and gunsmoke occasionally, but really enjoy Into the Night and All in the Family

[Frankie the Fink]

I like the old stuff - Yellowstone ? Meh - you can have it, not real cowboy genre IMO..

Its Dynasty and Dallas just farther north.
