Crazy credits
In the opening credits, Joan Collins is billed as "Guest Star" while Rose Marie is billed as "Special Guest Star." That may seem odd today, but in 1967, the latter was considered the bigger name, as she had just finished five seasons on the enormously successful "The Dick Van Dyke Show."

Lady From Wichita

For fans of The Virginian the episode titled, The Lady from Wichita, is very entertaining. It has elements of comedy and drama. Two women head out to Medicine Bow to claim a ranch left by a former customer of their saloon in Wichita. The rest of the episode is about their attempts to become part of the community. The two women are played by Rose Marie and Joan Collins who add comedy and sex appeal in equal amounts. SPOILER: The way the episode ended the viewer is lead to believe that the two former saloon keepers are accepted by the town of Medicine Bow and even hired a new foreman. What I don't understand is if they end up with a ranch next to the Graingers why don't we see them again in succeeding episodes?
