As a fan of the show since the first week it was on TV, I found this episode particularly epic because it hit on so many important points. For one, her last words, "promises are for the living." Too often we hold on to things that we need to let go of. And that applies to letting go of the land. Yes, land is a sacred thing, but you can always buy different land. It's not worth dying over. And finally, the one that hit me the most was the lack of water. I live in the desert near the Sacramento River in Northern California. Water is becoming a bigger and bigger concern out West and there have been ripple effects. Cities come to Lake Shasta and want to buy their water in advance at a fixed rate. Water could be the next oil crisis. Oh, and I almost forgot the love of a boy for his animal. This brought tears to my eyes as I lost a dog when I was a boy his age. Never forgot that feeling of what it was like to love a pet that much.

A great TV anthology series, with great stars, great guest stars, great writing, great theme music. A one of a kind series. A centerpiece of American television history as an art form.
I was 11 years old when this aired on television. Great cast with great guests and excellent scripts each week.! They actually wrote the script as they went to each city and and state.
My buddy and I used to pretend/fantasize that we were those guys... hitting the road for adventure in our own Corvettes! Almost 60 years later I am driving a Chevrolet alright... a Chevy Cruze! Have loved the theme song by the great Nelson Riddle ever since!!!!
As a kid I loved this show.....but the Corvette was the major draw for me. I often dreamed of owning one some day and it finally happened. I've owned 10 in the past 40 years and loved them all. And I still have one today. ;-)
wow thanks I was a kid back then, these old but very great shows still got that charm. Better than any TV show of today, that I think are tasteless and boring Thank you
So many decades ago, this episode....yet this spring our spring dried up for the first time... Yup, California... drought is no joke to farmers, ranchers, heck, anyone! Very grateful we are for this blessed rain...
California was, is and always shall be a desert in most places. Problem is the water you get comes now from other states AND had you seen Hetch Hetchy before the dam went up to give SF it's water you would cry like John Muir did when it disappeared in a reservoir. Too many people, too many foolish wooden homes with swimming pools and greenery. Pump out that ground water and what will be left for future generations? It took millions of years for that water to get down there and now- well, you reap what you sow. It's heart-breaking to see people build a house on sand and more so when the tide comes in and washes that castle away. Teach your children well.
I love all these Route 66 episodes.Great story,great meaning of family .Plus G. Maharis is beautiful especially in a swimsuit.M.Milner is a hottie.Great show.
I was 11 years old when this aired on television. Great cast and excellent scripts ! Isn’t that Debra Wally as I remember of Gidget fame? It is! I saw the closing credits.
I knew the sister looked familiar. Deborah Walley, of Gidget Goes Hawaiian and Beach movies of the 60s. Think I had a crush on her back in the day. Anyone remember the Mothers in Law? Eve Arden and Kaye Ballard. Pretty funny sitcom.
There was a time, in real life, when bankers were ruled by morality, told the truth, were responsible and knew the people. The whole world came to suffer when American banks gave risky loans for private housing and the bubble burst. The politically driven idea was to make people without the proper outlook have their own houses, and the property wasn't sufficient collateral. It was terribly irresponsible and multitudes had to leave their homes in the end. Chicago is a telling example with huge graveyards of deteriorating, empty houses. A depressing sight unworthy of Western civilization.
Western Civilisation? No, Civilisation. Western has nothing to do with it. People all over the world reach out to use the things in their grasp. Your 'Western Civilisation' over-reaches and sometimes it's great and sometimes more trouble than it's worth. Like a drunken sailor ashore flush with cash and spending on pointless frills: Cows, horses, swimming pools, wooden mansions on lawns of grass surrounded by trees IN A DESERT! That's depressing! Civilisations disappear quickly under such foolishness. "The Worth of Water is Known when the Well runs dry!" Let that be a lesson for "Civilisations".
Hoping someone reading this can help. I used to have nightmares from the credits of Route 66 and Big G - which was the rename in the UK of a programme originally called Empire in the US ! I thought I was 4 at the time but found out in April I was not quite 3! There was a scene that used to appear at the end of the credits of both programmes, I think with a shouty word. A long word was displayed at the bottom of the screen and I think a man, woman and dog crossing the road left to right of the screen diagonally above! I remembered the theme tune of Route 66 and the advert break picture for Big G! I think Big G was shouted out at the beginning of the programme! Too young to remember the actual programmes! But I would like to face what frightened me! Thanks to UA-cam have been able to face other credits, tunes on shows that gave me nightmares! Would appreciate any enlightenment on the startling extra end credit above! Was it only in the UK or only for a while?! Also would really appreciate seeing opening and closing credits for Big G as it was in the UK! Have already messaged the people who have put Empire on UA-cam about these! But if anyone can help on this also, it wd be fantastic!
I saw many mistakes with drilling that would have been a huge oops . but TV shows were not intended to be analyzed. If so. Gilligans Island would have been in trouble! Fun program. Too bad we can't have his type of TV today.
Good actors and a story about human beings. Today they use people as props to highlight the CGI for unessesary gory effects and the photography which puts me to sleep. Today they try to act so subtle their not even reacting. The whole business is nothing but crap. The very sight of any picture puts me in daisy land. But shows of the past like these wakes me up. Thank you
Ayy. First season, 1st episode -- "Black September." They turn off the main road. They turn onto a dirt road. Car troubles and all other troubles soon follow. Fast forward too this episode: ditto. Some people just never learn about shortcuts, I suppose. Also, just how much ultraviolet Type A and Type B radiation does one's skull and the human body absorb -- while traveling in an open top roadster for 4-years in the United States? What? That much? Yayy.
I got news for them it wasn't the leathers. When they took the drop pipe apart there was no pull rod. Which means the rod came apart at the top and the cylinder came loose at the bottom. Best thing they can do is go get himself a submersible pump and fast!
This is painful to watch. The drought that devastated Texas for more than half of the 1950s was a feature of my childhood. It wasn't as cruel in my part of the state (the Rio Grande brush country) but in West Texas ranches that had grown cattle for generations had to convert to sheep and then goats, and even then some of those ranches didn't survive.
"Dang, old buddy, look at our suitcases drowning in sand and dirt. Maybe we should have traded in this inheritance to a car with an actual trunk." Our boys have a brand new super-pricy 'Vette each year, and plenty of dough for food, fuel, lodging. Why on Earth then are they hanging around at this miserable dusbowl? Instead of being on some palm tree laden seaside resort -- or at least lounging by a swimming pool among bikini-clad young ladies?
Yup- Sinful treating a 61 like an SUV !!! I never treated mine like that. Also, they never put the top up with all that dust haha. One of my fav episodes. Using the rear drive as a pump drive.
🤧 Tough decision to make.. sometimes failure overpowers and forces one to pick up the pieces and search for greener pastures. It was a land.. and Lord knows land is precious but crops don’t grow out of rocks. If it wasn’t for the birtth and development of water desalination machinery lots of towns, big cities even wouldn’t have had the chance to still be existing up to this very date. The battle is still on in some regions.. not necessarily an environmental variability if you catch ny drift but hopefully it all turns to the other way around.. someday.
I'm pissed off about Oberjack ! a gallon would neither make make or brake the situation , cruelty through ignorance. the story left me unsettled. Do You really know what it feels like to thirst really thirst?
They could've saved the boy's mule by simply returning him to the old man who bought him! The boy could have visited him whenever he wanted too. Why make things sadder than they need to be?
How come the guy has a hat on when he is working on the well at 29:12, How does it stay on in the dust storm. If looks like he would have to glue it on.It reminds me of the old westerns when a cowboy got into a fight and fell over boulders and rolled down a hill and fell into a river and his hat stayed on. Thanks for the uploads.This was a good series.
Ya, they don't make ten-gallon hats like the good-ole'-days. Had me a 61 corvette in them days and drove it down the Oregon Trail East to West and only broke the steering shaft- don't make them like they used to! ;^)
I get Buzz and Tod's whole thing is helping others but what right do they have? The boy obviously gave up the mule for a reason and they bring it back without knowing the circumstances. Tv shows like this, The Fugitive and many others alike I guess the 60s weren't a time to mind your own business. Or maybe that's the problem today? No one willing to help others. Suppose I'm conditioned that way myself because I didn't like them for butting in where they weren't asked. I'm just thinking I'd hate for strangers to come around and insert themselves in our personal family drama.
That is a 1961 Corvette (first year with the four round tail-lamps). Although this show premiered in the fall of 1960, an actual 1960 was used only in the first episode, Black November. As the pilot, it was filmed much earlier in the year, before the new models were introduced.
+Mark Richardson As Archie Bunker tells it you can blame it all on Eleanor Roosevelt: "Eleanor was always out on the loose. Running around with the coloreds. Tellin' 'em they was gettin' the short end of the stick. She was the one who discovered the coloreds in this country; we never knew they was there!"
I'm curious where you got that from. He had hepatitis and liver damage and that was the reason he left the show. When asked if he was holding out for more money he replied that they could give me $4,000,000 but it's not worth much if it destroys my liver

Route 66 is THE definition of "cool"!!!
I like this show and all but they never show them on route 66
A great story, buy I sure wish they had found a way for the mule to make it.
A few years ago I determined that my memory of the first run of this episode indicated I was age 4 1/2 when I first saw this episode
I was 5 years old. My sister was 11. She loved this show.
Well, the mule at the beginning doesn't show up in the last scene. Best to find a different episode
of Route 66, then.
So sad that Apple Jack passed on to that mule heaven in the sky.

Very rare Corvette to have Dayton wire wheels
Using the vette like a ford model t was cool

They really mistreated that early Vette!
They really did! No way that car would have lasted 4 years. Fortunately, they got a new one every year.
Best episode yet but I agree with Virgil. I would've died on that land before I sold my ancestors out. Poor Overjack.

He did Summer Stock in a show that played in Atlanta about 1976 and looked about the same. So did David McCallum; both are still around in 2022.
