I've always been a big fan of Alias Smith & Jones. It's the first thing I can remember watching on tv. It also inspired me to write and I used to make up scenes for my mum.
I think what I enjoy most is the simplicity and the brotherly bond between Hayes and Curry. The lack of violence appeals to me more as I get older and more mellow. Just the fact that Kid Curry has a fast draw is thrilling to me, I don't need to see him kill anyone - even though the bad guy deserved it in Smiler With A Gun. It's also nice to see actors who are no longer with us as well as those who were just starting out and went on to greater things.

I have to be honest and admit that I've never seen this show. Sounds interesting, though.

I have the whole set, I so enjoy, Pete Duel as Hannable Hayes, and as Planetwriter said Smiler with a Gun is such a great story.

This was always one of my favorites, with or without Pete Duel. I was always a Ben Murphy fan.

I have to admit, I don't like the ones with Roger Davies. He just seems to take the whole thing over and spoil it with his self import and perpetual grinning.

I enjoyed the gambling aspect of this show. Especially the episode where they proved that flushes don't count unless specifically stared when the game starts. Or was it straights . . .
