  • Western Union western TV series episode pilot starring Richard Anderson this is the pilot episode of a suggested TV series titled Western Union from about 1958. This is episode 14 of The Forsaken Westerns, an original TV series produced by Westerns On The Web Productions. In this episode Richard Anderson stars as Steve Gibson, a western union man whose job it is to set posts and string the wire for the telegraph. He has to overcome many obstacles to accomplish his job. This is the only known existing episode of this show. It is a shame because it looks like this could have been a very good series. This is a rough copy a bit blurry but still watchable. It is a miracle that there is any copy of this film at all. Also in this episode are Don Haggerty, Peter Breck, Phyllis Coates and Raymond Hatton. The film editor is Irving Berlin. The Forsaken Westerns series contains episodes of TV shows that were never broadcast or have not been broadcast in as many as 65 years. Almost lost forever, these rare television film treasures are now being released and uploaded for free viewing from the www.westernsontheweb.com archive collection.

    Thanks so much for these old westerns. As a note of trivia the town in this episode was at the gone but not forgotten Corriganville movie ranch. This is the same street Nick Adams walked down in the pilot episode of The Rebel and where the Texas Rangers walked up then down as the opening and closing for The Tales Of The Texas Rangers. Also the Forsaken Westerns episode Buckskin Rangers was filmed at Corriganville along with Ray Crash Corrigan owner of the movie ranch. Keep 'em coming.

      Trivia-It was destroyed by wildfires in 1976 and 1979. In 1937, Ray 'Crash' Corrigan, Real name: Raymond Benitz 1902 - 1976, one of the stars of Republic Pictures' The Three Mesquiteers Western series, purchased a 1500 acre ranch in Simi Valley, Ventura County, California, for $11,354. Corriganville was built by movie and TV actor Ray Bernard, but better known as Crash Corrigan. After going on a hunting trip in Simi Valley with fellow actor, Clark Gable, in 1935, Corrigan fell in love with the area. In 1937, Corrigan purchased the land, and built his home there. He eventually went on to build an entire western backlot, dubbed Silvertown, served as the background scenery for movies and television programs such as Fort Apache, Buffalo Bill in Tomahawk Territory, The Robe, Lassie, The Lone Ranger, The Bandit of Sherwood Forest, How the West was Won, Gunsmoke,The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin, Sky King, Circus Boy, and Star Trek, and more.
      One of the last movies filmed there was Vigilante Force (1976).

    What a pleasure to see Peter Breck in one of his first tv appearances! He will always be remembered as the jowly and irascible Nick Barkley. Richard Anderson went on to immortality as "Oscar," on the "Six Million Dollar Man" in the early 1970s.
