When it comes to this vintage, colour, TV Western from the 1950s - I find myself riding the fence a lot with how I feel about it.
When tallying up the pros and cons of this show - For starters - I thought that actor, Duncan Renaldo (at 46) was way too old to be at all believable as the athletic hero that he portrayed himself to be as the title character.
What i also didn't like was the repeated recycling of the same actors in these episodes. It sure seemed that far too often they played a villain in one episode and then the next time around they were all honest, law-abiding citizens.
But, on the other hand - What appealed to me about this show was that a lot of the violence seemed to have an enjoyable slapstick edge to it.
And, of course - When it came to Cisco's trusty sidekick, Pancho - His outrageous, groan-worthy one-liners and the way he deliberately chewed up the English language certainly offered the viewer some much-needed comic relief to all of the dead-serious drama.
Anyway - I neither loved nor hated this old-time TV Western - For the most part - It was "OK" at best.
