User Reviews

Very entertaining western.

Clint Walker may just be the actor who had the greatest screen presence of all time in television or movies.His commanding looks and presence took tall dark and handsome to a whole new level.He is the type of guy that appeals to both men and women equally.Just a very likable guy.And in combination with his soft spoken ,easy going manner made this show unique.He was surprising good in the role.And the unique thing about this show is he is in almost every scene.Cheyenne is a very well done western show.It's stories are entertaining,well filmed,produced and directed.It is also another one of those shows like my personal favorite, The Rifleman that is a joy to watch even if you are not a big fan of westerns.If you are looking for pure entertainment from back in the days when they knew how to make wonderful television shows,give Cheyenne a try.
