The captain sam story wagon train series#
Fuller had previously played a lead in the western series Laramie and physically resembled Horton. Robert Fuller as scout Cooper Smith (1963–65, seasons 7–8) replacing the McCullough character after Robert Horton left the series.McIntire had guest starred in a Season 3 episode in the role of preacher Andrew Hale, apparently Christopher's brother according to a reference made by Christopher later in the series. John McIntire as Christopher Hale (1961–65, seasons 4–8), replacing Bond as wagon master upon Bond's death.Robert Horton as scout Flint McCullough (1957–62, seasons 1–5).
No explanation was ever given on the show. Bond died of a heart attack in the middle of the fourth season, and was replaced by John McIntire as wagon master.
This is a good family oriented episode for Wagon Train that still holds up well after 50 years.Wagon Train is an American Western series that aired 8 seasons: first on the NBC television network (1957–1962), and then on ABC (1962–1965). They're exacerbated by the fact that his cadet sergeant Ray Stricklyn is paying attention to Coy's daughter Roberta Shore. Sloane has some problems with Walter Coy who lost a son under Sloane's command in the Civil War and in a battle where Sloane got the Congressional Medal Of Honor. The episode heavily suggests what Robert Baden-Powell did with the establishment of the Boy Scouts after the Boer War. The kids are run with strict military discipline. His intention is to establish a military school on a land grant he now has in California and he's got the makings of his first class. He's traveling with a bunch of boys all of them orphaned in the late war. The title role of the Sam Elder Story is played by Everett Sloane who was a medal of honor winner in the Civil War. Wilson pinch hit admirably and Frank McGrath as always provided the comic relief which he would do more and more of as the series progressed. But McIntire hadn't made his debut yet and the script had Terry Wilson taking a part that was clearly originally meant to be for Ward Bond. As you will note by the lead credits John McIntire had already been hired to replace Ward Bond who died suddenly in early November of 1960.
