Have Gun - Will Travel (1957–1963)
9/10
Richard Boone is Paladin!
25 May 2020
In spite of the fact that Boone was not "handsome" in the pretty boy Hollywood kind of way, he definitely had load and loads of charisma! He lit up the screen in a way few actors can. This made this series special -- just like his later Hec Ramsey. Season Three pf HGWT seems to have more stories dealing with ambiguous moral / ethical issues which sometimes gives the episode an ambiguous ending. The focus seems to not be on lets tie the story up with a neat and satisfying ending but to make the viewer ruminate on the purport of the story. In this, the stories become more of morality tales set in the context of the Western just as Star Trek -TOS had morality tales set in space and the future.
