The Gene Autry Show

I've always been a huge fan of Gene Autry movies but haven't seen many of the TV episodes until recently. America's Favorite Cowboy and Patriot was a great discovery by Will Rogers. He had millions of young fans so as a good role model he developed a code of conduct, "The Cowboy Code". The best comic sidekick extraordinaire, Pat Buttram made each episode a joy to behold. Of course he went on to play the most beloved character in TV history, Mr. Haney on Green Acres. Who can forget the wonder horse Champion? Champion was fast, intelligent and a sight to behold.

Of the episodes I have watched, they are extremely well written, directed and produced. With the incredible cast of actors, they were able to produce the same great quality as the Gene Autry movies into 30 minutes of pure delight. Gene Autry was able turn everything he touched into gold. With his over 200 songs and successful career and businesses he was able to amass over 300 million dollars at the time of his death. His success was well earned and Gene Autry was a gift to the world that is priceless.
