Eric Fleming who was the Star of Rawhide led such a horrible life from birth, he overcame it to become not only the best character on the show but the best written.

Indeed! Thank you for watching our content. Be on the lookout for our next video!

[@debrajames6286]

Oh my, thank you for this, love Rawhide, Gil Favor and Clint Eastwood and the rest of the cast, watch every Saturday, I also have the entire DVD set👍💕

[@joebloggs8636]

I watch Rawhide 3 times a day ..i want the dvd set so bad but because Clint is shown as the main star and Eric Fleming in the background or not on cover at all, i refuse to get it..Fleming was the star and best actor on the show.

[@thisisme3238]

My dad was a real loyal fan of "Rawhide." Consequently, I viewed almost every episode of this sitcom...growing up watching that show. "Wishbone," was my favorite character on Rawhide as well as the theme song. The theme song I can probably sing even today, after all these years.

[@FactsVerse]

Thank you for sharing your favorite cast member! We're happy to know that you and your dad loved the show ❤

[@billhowes7937]

Sitcom?

[@blusnuby2]

Jim Quince (Steve Raines), Joe Scarlet (Rocky Shahan) & Pete Nolan (Sheb Wooley) seemed to be the best horseman on the Rawhide set. Eric Fleming & Clint Eastwood were decent riders as well. Steve Raines crossed-over back in 1996 at age 79. Rocky Shahan crossed-over in 1981. THANKS fellas, you were a joy to watch !

James Murdock “died in 1950.” And he was still able to appear in “The Godfather.” Impressive.

Clint Eastwood as Rowdy is my all time favorite - When i was a kid, I had the biggest crush on him - I never realized what a true actor was until I saw him on tv. the spaghetti westerns, comedies, dramas, and blockbusters! Hes done it all - as a great writer, directior...He is our American treasure and was Mayor of Carmel CA he is still going strong!!! He gets better with age....like a fine wine!!!❤️

[@FactsVerse]

Clint is an extraordinary actor. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. What other types of videos would you like to see on your channel?

[@TomBTerrific]

Looking back I don’t believe anyone would have predicted Clints level of success. Same would go for others legendary actors like John Wayne, Leonardo DiCaprio and such. Clint certainly was handsome and that never hurt’s. As we grow older in life and experiences we meet many people who also influenced our thinking. All of these influence and change us as individuals. Not sure how we can measure that. Certainly with longevity comes credibility. We should always remember they are people first and had some rather fantastic break’s in life and financially rewarding but Hollywood achievements isn’t exactly finding cures for disease’s or mental illness is it.

[@joebloggs8636]

Eric Fleming as Gil Favor blows him out of the water on Rawhide.

[@janjerge1484]

There's no denying Clint Eastwood was a handsome guy, w/that incredible hair when he was young; but he has the WORST posture!! When I watched him slouching his way through Rawhide, I just wished someone would tell him to STAND UP STRAIGHT!! But he's proven himself to be a talented actor.

[@gklug305]

As a kid in the 50s and 60s my folks watched a lot of westerns- Bonaza, Gunsmoke, Maverick, Wagon Train, Wanted- Dead or Alive, etc. For some reason we never watched Rawhide. I have been binge watching it on You Tube and it is just an awesome show! And where shows like Maverick could take place anywhere and include an unlimited cast of characters, Rawhide was limited to what could happen or who you could meet on a cattle drive. It is the BEST!

[@smitam6856]

I love Eric Flemings manly look,deep voice and best smile. Its not that easy to become famous and settle in life for a person like Eric.He crossed all odds and evils and became best acter.He is a best example of best person. Clint is always appreciated. All characters are nice.thanks for uploading . My comments From 🇮🇳 INDIA.

[@FactsVerse]

We're happy to know that you love the show. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. If we may ask, which episode did you like the best?

[@silvijas.5080]

I watched it on our national TV last year and now I'm watching the replay again. And I can watch that series day after day from the beginning and I won't get bored. I like the whole cast, the guys are a really good team. Maybe my favorites are Eric above all, but also Sheb who plays Pete and Steve who plays Quince. But I must say that Eric is a very, very special and interesting person who exudes strong charisma and if he had lived, he would probably have reached the top of the stars in the world of acting. This is a person who, in addition to radiating charisma, simultaneously carries strength, reliability, firmness and principle, but also a dose of self-deprecation. He impresses me as a character. He has all that, but he hasn't been very lucky in his life. Too bad, I'm really sorry about that. I think he is a great loss to the film industry. May all the boys who left us rest in peace and watch over us as we watch over them.

[@janjerge1484]

Your summation of Eric Fleming is very astute!! I love that he conveyed such a strong sense of honor & integrity. Growing up, I had the WORST crush on him (& James Arness of Gunsmoke). Both men portrayed very strong, moral characters!! Eric's looks were sort of a slow burn, and ohhh, those eyes!! SUCH a gorgeous man!! ❤❤❤❤

[@noragaddis5449]

I enjoy it. Gil Favor was my favorite. I got a question where is Rocky Shahan and Steve Raines? They was the original casts in the beginning. They were not in your video. Rocky died in 1981 and Steve Raines died in 1996. Where is Charles Gray (Clay Forrester.) And William R. Thompkins (Toothless.)

[@jckhammer]

Well toothless was hardly a regular character . Rocky and quince I agree should've been mentioned tho

I liked anyone that could ride a horse. I remember watching Rawhide from its beginning as we would all sit around the TV. Those times were so simple, innocent and different than these times we live in today. Back then people loved and were proud to be Americans. Nowadays they challenge what you mean by saying Americans. Sad but true.

My husband and I are watching Rawhide every night on Foxtel here in Australia at the moment. We both grew up watching it when we were kids in the 50s and 60s, and enjoy it even more now! Hard to say who my favourite actor was, they all appeal on different levels. I have just finished reading Death on the Amazon by Eric Fleming's fiancee, couldn't put it down. Great insight into Eric Fleming, apparently a very intelligent man who had little time for the Hollywood lifestyle of endless parties and drugs. He is probably my favourite, but both Eric and Clint could have put their boots under my bed anytime😆😆😆
