Cimarron Strip (1967–1968)
7/10
Worthy series that would have benefited from plot and character development
31 July 2020
I've just binge-watched all 23 episodes on YouTube and generally enjoyed them, especially identifying guests stars such as Royal Dano, Philip Carey, David Carradine etc.

Stuart Whitman was fine in the lead role, but I wasn't so sure about the other three regulars. I'm normally a fan of Percy Herbert but he was over-the-top as MacGregor and I wouldn't want Randy Boone as my deputy. Jill Townsend looked delightful, but got on my nerves with her hysterics when Jim Crown was missing and she was trying to get help from the townsfolk.

I would have liked to see more development through the series, showing us how Dulcey got to grips with running the saloon and more clarity about her business relationship with MacGregor. And the characters themselves could have been developed more.

Probably 23 episodes were enough.
