Review of Bordertown

Bordertown (1989–1991)
Here was a series that deserved to run at least as long as Gunsmoke did, but seemingly no one wants to pick it up for syndication. Best western series I have ever seen.

Richard Comar, Sophie Barjac, and John H. Brennan have all three gained significant places in my memory of THE absolute best western series

ever to grace the television screen. Too bad no network has scheduled the show for syndicated re-runs. It would definitely be a moneymaker. Bordertown not only had beautiful Canadian scenery, but intelligent content as well. It was warm, humorous, and habit-forming. I rarely missed a show and even wrote and submitted screenplay for an episode. Unfortunately, by the time my manuscript reached Stuart Gillard, the

series had already been cancelled. What a shame. Gunsmoke had the

distinction of being the longest-running series in television history. Bordertown deserves at least as much. It was clean, moral, and

uplifting. Movers and shakers probably will never see this review, but at least I've had my say.
