THE VIRGINIAN

Any fans of THE VIRGINIAN here? I have been collecting the series on DVD and am about 2/3 through Season One. Having just read Paul Green's book A HISTORY OF TELEVISION'S THE VIRGINIAN, I have a good idea how the series will progress. I have to say that Season One is fairly uneven. As I read in the book, this was due to a quick replacement of the original producer. I have enjoyed most of the episodes. I actually prefer shoot 'em ups, but THE VIRGINIAN is a nice change of pace sometimes. I enjoyed THE ACCOMPLICE, DUEL AT SHILOH and SAY GOODBYE TO ALL THAT. I did not enjoy THE MAN FROM THE SEA at all. The character of the sailor just plain annoyed me and the story just seemed silly. But I still enjoy watching the series. Looking forward to seeing later seasons and how the series handles the revolving door of main characters. Steve
