John Payne does an excellent job in caring solutions to others problems.
I also just watched two episodes on Get TV. It's always instructive to see television or films made early, when production was extremely sparse, and yet the drama is propelled forward by real actors, scripts and dialog.
The second episode I watched dealth with accepting new german immigrants, a timely theme in the late 50s, and now for that matter.
Most of what I got out of this episode, and the earlier one which dealt with crime, calling a young murderer 'crafted not just by himself, but by society', was that America no longer has any sensible judgement or morality, and everyone is just spewing agendas based on faulty information, instead of taking one step and case at a time. A methodical approach to secular justice is expressed in these smart episodes, something this country has utterly lost, at least in its public discourse.
Of course, one particular side will blame the other for this condition. They are wrong. Everyone is responsible, especially the people blaming others. Regardless, these are excellent shows, totally watchable, with a strong, smart, just lead in John Payne. It makes America today look bad, and it makes modern film and tv scripts look average in general.

Entertaining series based on the Six- Shooter radio series starring Jimmy Stewart portraying a wandering gunfighter named Britt Ponsett. That series ran 39 episodes from 1953 to 1954. Several of the radio scripts were used on the televised version, much like the early TV version of Gunsmoke starring James Arness used the fine radio scripts with WilliamConrad as Matt Dillon. Always a John Payne movie fan, I was thrilled to find this series via YouTube. This was his last hurrah as a regular TV performer. He made several guest appearances on series through the 70s. John Payne passed away in 1989.
When John Payne's movie career was slowing down he turned to television with this western series. He played Vint Bonner, legendary fast gun western hero who drifts from town to town. As I remember he was like Gregory Peck in The Gunfighter, a man who was getting tired of the business he was in. Unfortunately young toughs looking to make a reputation and people in distress in general wouldn't let him rest.
What I remember best was the early conversion kit he had. In his saddlebag he carried a barrel which could be screwed into the business end of his six shooter and a rifle stock which could be attached to the other end. When one was ambushed from a distance on the trail this became a handy tool to have around.
Of course toy manufacturers had one out for the life of the series. And I wanted one at the age of 10. But alas my parents never let me have one.
Payne was a thoroughgoing professional in every kind of film be it musical or dramatic. That was much in evidence in The Restless Gun. It ran on NBC opposite another western show with an actor looking to make the transition to television. That would be Rory Calhoun in The Texan. But I preferred Mr. Payne.

Vic Morrow, the punk that he was is in an episode long before he was in Combat. John Milford is in one, i love him, Stacy Harris and John Larch take center stage. Payne is a good cowboy in this, he was a good role for this. Sorry it wasn't on longer to have more of my goons guest star.
