Maverick, Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Rawhide, etc. I loved James Garner's trickster - not as fond of Jack Kelly's character back then, but I was a raw youngster.

He has enough classic country in his songs to appeal to the classic country snob in me. hahaha<br /><br />Got to love James Garner. He didn't seem to take himself too seriously and I loved that about him.Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409887812566625284.post-90979656206222569592021-05-20T17:17:10.738-05:002021-05-20T17:17:10.738-05:00Doris,

I particularly enjoy Alfred Molina in anything he does. He was great as a bad guy in Maverick.Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409887812566625284.post-81555936089947390492021-05-18T11:18:37.675-05:002021-05-18T11:18:37.675-05:00Thanks, Kaye.

LO...I have a computer again, and I can NOW COMMENT! LOL My phone does not cooperate. Anyhow, just wanted to say what a great post this is--jogged my memory and reminded me why I love Clink Black so much. He had a TON of great songs and this one ranks right up there! <br /><br />I loved the excerpt from your book, too. This is a fave story of mine (of yours!) and it kept me on the edge of my seat, wondering how in the world it was all going to work out. You did a great job with that! <br /><br />Ah, Maverick. Love James Garner. He was from Norman, Oklahoma, just a hop, skip, and a jump from where I live in Oklahoma City. He always made me smile!

The theme songs for Paladin and Maverick are so catchy that they almost qualify as earworms.
