A Man Called Shenandoah

I sure don't remember this show:

I remember that Robert Horton was on Wagon Train but he never seemed to be much in the action.  Sort of like Pernell Roberts on Bonanza - Hop Sing, Hoss, Little Joe and Ben Cartwright I remember but not much about Adam :)

Also, I didn't know Robert Horton was a singer either, he sings the opening song:

One TV western I liked was called: Cimarron Strip.  No amnesia was involved though.  It was interesting in that it was a 90 minute show, more like a short movie every week than a TV show.
Hopefully the Oklahoma panhandle doesn't look like this !

I remember one scene where Stuart Whitman's character, Jim Crown, is riding in a rail car with Jill Townsend's character, Dulcey.  She is writing on a pad various occupations like gunman.  Finally Jim Crown says something like: "no Ma'am, Marshal"  :)

One final show in a similar vein (but not a western) was Coronet Blue.  Another amnesia victim trying to find stuff out.

They weren't Shakespeare but they were memorable - except for A Man Called Shenandoah  :)
