This is an awesome western from the past.I cant figure out why they would only make thirteen episodes of such a good show.I dont know if its just me or what,but i love all these older tv westerns.They dont make em' like they used to.Shows used to have some meaning and some morals kinda taught in the story lines.Thank GOD for the internet and old shows.

Tate is an American Western television series starring David McLean that aired on NBC from June 8 until September 14, 1960. It was created by Harry Julian Fink, who wrote most of the scripts, and produced by Perry Como's Roncom Video Films, Inc., as a summer replacement for The Perry Como Show.

kim farrell This was a summer replacement for Perry Como, that was not picked up.

Those "morals" came the hard way with lots of killings and violence.

[@delmusingle2338]

@@alphonsozorro7952 ,,,,,, Those "morals" are a replacement for evolution's survival of the fittest by violence and deceit. Sometimes it requires violence to back up those "morals". It is called becoming 'civilized'. But there will always be those who seek to rule over others or destroy them. These days it is Marxism by using the weak minded to claim 'victimhood' at every turn.

[@ohwhatelse]

Delmus Ingle ...if you delve deep enough into politics, Illuminatti, & Bilderberger Society you CAN clearly see who is trying to "rule over & destroy others." If you search the internet very deeply for the purpose of the Illuminattie, & Bilderberger Society you will find pictures of those in political power who are guilty of such desires. Power, greed, pride, wealth, & position mold the spur. You may or may NOT be surprised to discover the number of US presidents involved in the effort to bring about a One World Order (gov't), mostly DEMS but, the Bush's included. Can you imagine a ONE WHOLE WORLD PRESIDENT "WITHOUT" it being a DICTATORSHIP? I mean, WHO could POSSIBLYmake them step down, OR have an election to replace the "ONE" WORLD POWER HEAD? Huhuh. WOULD NOT HAPPEN! Remember Obama saying, "I want to be the 1st ONE WORLD PRESIDENT..."? AND LAST, of course! The plan was to break this country down like he said, he wanted "to "FUNDAMENTALLY" CHANGE (our) AMERICA." THAT is why DEMS were/ARE so-o angry that Hillary didn't get in! SHE WAS SUPPOSED to finish the job on us! They found MANY MILLIONS of $$ in Obama's Taiwan home that he stole from us! But for GOD we would be puppets right now OR, WORSE- BE DEAD! No, you don't have to take my word for it- look up what I told you! You'll find out! it's there!

Luke is Kurt Russel's father. Maybe thats why Kurt was always on his way to to "Californy" every week.

[@davidbennett6912]

I love the way Tate. Kicks garbage around and then at the end of the show he takes the garbage out and gets rid of it. That's how you do it..

[@mzeewatk846]

Show has ******** good writers. :)

[@paulkatz258]

Thanks Pizzafix for uploading this episode.

Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you!

Kurt Russell's dad is in this episode. He's pretty good! StocktonRob

I kinda felt sorry for her.. but Tate kinda flirted with women I noticed.. but never goes any further.. he broke a few hearts.

[@oldwestguy]

Watching this episode, I wonder how Tate was able to buckle on his gunbelt... must be difficult with one arm. Fron one scene not wearing it to the next with it strapped on... I would like to see how he manages it. I have a few of them and they require two hands to fasten.

[@tomswinburn1778]

People with handicaps frequently learn to overcome them. I once hunted geese with a guy who had lost the use of his right arm to polio as a child. With ONE arm he handled a 10 gauge shotgun, a side X side double barrel, and did it very well. He also drove an old hotrod Ford stick, and speed shifted it, while holding the bottom of the string wheel with his crippled hand. People can and do amazing things when they have to.

[@oldwestguy]

@@tomswinburn1778 Agreed. I wasn't questioning the fortitude or ingenuity involved in accomplishing the task... just saying it would have been interesting... and inspiring... to see it done.

[@samuretsky9251]

Some of the best westerns failed to gain an audience, perhaps because they were too dark. Rod Serling's "The Loner" didn't last, nor did Sam Peckinpah's "The Westerner" Tate was created by Harry Julian Fink, one of the best writers of the period. A lot of excellent shows never got the ratings they deserved -- does anybody recall "East Side West Side"? At least via the Internet we can review some of the classics.

[@billb2479]

+Sam Uretsky East Side West Side is on YT. Joey Boey channel. Watched all episodes. Great series. Vaguely remember it but didn't really watch it in the day as I was a kid and it was an "adult" series.

[@julianmarsh1378]

I think it was just so many westerners were on TV....you reach a saturation point.

[@samuretsky9251]

@TACOMA98405 I agree completely on that one. I didn't even understand the premise. On the other hand, one that I never watched at the time, but come back to on KZbin was/is The Restless Gun. It was an adaptation of the radio show The Six Shooter, and while John Payne wasn't the equal of Jimmy Stewart who starred in the radio version (which never did get a sponsor) it was one of the better half hour westerns as long as you didn't think about it too long .

Looks like Marty Haggart

[@t.curran8243]

If he's the Marlboro man, how come he ain't smoking?

[@jabbotribe]

He never smoked.

[@jimclark6256]

@@jabbotribe Mclean did not smoke inthe tv shows, but was a heavy smoker in real life. He died from the bad effects of smoking . His wife and son sued the Phillip Morris Company , but the suit was tossed out due to the powerful influence of cigarette companies in those days. Look on WIKI.

Tate - The Reckoning. Every woman wants a man not a two bit piece of a man who creates cheap lies on a woman who would NEVER have him.

[@JoeDebono]

The title segment of this show is pathetic, that’s not a fast draw, his grip on the pistol is all wrong, his aim is ridiculous unless he shot off someone’s foot. Either the technical advisor was off sick that day or he was completely ignored.
