I feel like Grannie has come back

Red

When I lived in Mission Viejo I had a store in Laguna Beach. Jeanette Nolan, John's wife came in many times, what a sweetheart of a person she was. John came in once with her. She played a part in Gunsmoke she should have got a reward for, she was fantastic.

I love this SIR! Thankyou for sharing! I wish I had a time machine to go back to those days. Godbless ~

Cool story...

@Josie Iatomasi Yes Josie, it was mid 80s and mobile phones were just becoming popular, the kind you had mounted in your car and could listen many other peoples conversations. Had Jeanette's autograph on her checks many times, never saved one.

@Josie Iatomasi I watch it twice daily. It comes on at 2pm on INSP tv.they have been showing later versions that run an hour and I half and they are in color. I don't remember all of them but I am happy to see them. Then I watch it on ME TV at 4pm. I realize they are old but I like these better than the new tv shows.

Me too! Had a Wagon Train t-shirt!

Me three, had a mickey mantle card snapping on the back spokes on my bicycle.

Cheerios whirley bird for me. Today I'm 67... yuk.

Wagon train i grew up watching it too!

,p I played a crooked preacher and then all the sudden he realized that he could not be a crook anymore so he ended up giving the money back to the wagon train and then he did $800 he gave back and he said I'm going to change my way Duke and he said the Lord moves in mysterious ways I like that he was a crook and then he became a good guy at the end and I loved it this is my blog and I'm sticking with it stop the violent start caring life is more important than dying Jesus is crying because the world is turning evil these are stuff that God and Jesus told me to write and I stick by that too bye see you later may God be with you and Jesus too or may we have blessings instead of pain thank you

I'm in this family theater as well, so many of these older significant shows in the early days of TV did a better job of teaching than our parents, and schools did, when it comes down to relationships and such.

"AMEN!"

@@multirichardb Right? I'm 61, my kids are all in their late 20's/early 30's; I was always shocked how little they knew about America, especially (since I watched t.v. years ago) American heritage.

Back in its day it was number one Western in ratings. Like the ones with Horton in them .

@@speedracer1945 wouldn't be a bit surprised!

In my opinion … THE best. And this is probably the best episode of the series.

Just curious as to what the other 5 were?

@@gracehawley9628 Gunsmoke, Bonanza,The Big Valley, The Virginian and The Rifleman!!!!!

I don’t know 🤷‍♀️ who that actress was who played the wife of the man who supposedly drowned but Irene Ryan played Granny on the Beverly Hillbillies and that actress wasn’t Irene Ryan. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

This preacher is a crook though.

@Henry Coy What you mad at God about? If you are mad that he doesn't approve of the devil and his ways, well, too bad.

@Henry Coy i rebuke the devil in Jesus name. I only feel sorry for you that have been fooled by the devil. If you have to see it to believe it, well, I guess you will. Better to have a repented heart.

Henry Coy And your way of thinking is exactly how Satan wants you to think! Satan operates very subtly because if you think Satan might be real, then you’d certainly have to rethink your belief system about God. I care about you, I care about how horrible your eternal anguish will be. Therefore, I’m pleading with you to have the wisdom of an open mind to make an informed decision. An educated belief can only be made with an open mind looking at all sides & seeking material on both sides of argument. I’m available to help on the obvious side of, absolutely there is a God, One God and only one God. One truth, and Heaven or Hell is definitely a choice made by each of us, we cannot ignore it as soon as we were burned, we are destined to die. There is an eternal address of heaven or hell. I pray you will seek with an open mind, the eternal address you end up with. There are only two choices. Look at this way, if I’m wrong, what have I lost? If I’m right, what have you lost?

@Henry Coy devil, you don't have a lot of time left, sad you don't spend it repenting.

Granny, the early years. Watch the 1954 movie "Black Beard", Irene Ryan plays an amusing.part. Black Beard played by Robert Newton.

I was just a little boy when I used to watch Wagon Train on television

Thank you for that info.

Thanks. Cool

Tone was more than interesting as an actor. It's just too bad he was never considered a leading man in his pictures. It was almost like he was second best and definitely overlooked. He was indeed a very talented and educated man. He was very handsome in his 20's.

A good lesson lesson learned. It just proves that faith is the greatest healer of all. As Jesus said, “faith your faith hath saved thee”. And “by faith though art made whole”. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

David Copperfield-- not the magician Interesting to recognize actresses and actors as they unfold in their careers. I just saw young Steve McQueen playing in a Wells Fargo episode. Frankly, I hardly recognized him. I think I'll watch some Bonanza and Marshall Dillon with Miss Kitty after this. Frankly, this is great fun traveling Back To The Future watching these programs again. But I miss the simple sophistication and culture these old programs embraced. Even though they were good yarns to begin with.

Irene Ryan was a very fine person and entertainer!!!!!

Yup, that's GRANNY!!!

@@scottmiller6495 saw Irene Ryan working with Edgar Kennedy in one of his shorts from the 40's, knew her as Granny, almost didn't recognize her :p

and George C. Scott.

Joan Crawford's second or third husband. And Betty Davis crush. He would be the Hollywood spark that lead to a rival between the two actresses. He was madly in 💕 with Joan first at the time. While Tone and Davis were filming the movie "Dangerous" Davis fell in love with Tone. I brought the movie from KZfaq. If you absorb the chemistry of both Tone and Davis, it sends a very powerful message to all those who ever saw this film. I read somewhere that Joan might have had Franchot Tone for herself, but while filming the movie "Dangerous" with Betty Davis, he put all of his passions into the character that Betty Davis was playing. The more I watch this movie, the fonder I get with Mr. Tone. These two should have done more movies together. Joan Crawford saw for herself how real that the two were acting and she decided to snatch Franchot Tone from Betty Davis. I don't think Hollywood was nice to Franchot Tone. He was very a good actor and very underrated.

I know yours is an old post but I loved watching Wooster on the episode "Clyde". That was one of my favorite episodes.

I'm watching Wagon Train episodes for the first time in reruns. I wish Hawks or Flint would had taken over after Ward Bond died but I still like the episodes after he passed. What gets me is when a major character leaves a show and there is no mention of him at all as if he never existed on the show. There should had been enough appreciation for the years they were on a show where some kind of mention could be made like having a tribute on the show of his passing away while leading the Train, something to show he's missed. They did the same with Favor when he left Rawhide no mention at all of him even after he was the main character for many seasons. I find that really sad because if he hadn't left that show then he might not had ever did the show where he had a tragic death, but it was not while he was filming.

@@JustMe-ec2ph Heartthrob Robert Horton ('Flint') didn't get on with Ward Bond but he also wanted to get away from the show (as Pernell Roberts did with "Bonanza") because he wanted to use his other talents and interests (like singing and stage productions). I don't think either "Wagon Train" or "Bonanza" recovered from the loss of their main-attraction stars (Ward Bond, Horton, Roberts and of course Dan Blocker) since they didn't have much else going for them.

@@None-zc5vg I had read that about Robert Horton but Hawks stayed with the show so he should had became Wagon Master but I still liked the episodes after Ward Bond passed and they still should had given Bond a proper tribute since he didn't just voluntarily leave the show. I think it was Dan Blocker's passing that lead to Bonanza ending. The show was doing well even after Roberts left and I know I am a little odd from the rest of Bonanza fans as I didn't really care much for Adam's character. To me it showed he really didn't want to be there.

@@JustMe-ec2ph You're right about the 'Adam' character in "Bonanza": unlike 'Flint' (Robert Horton) in "Wagon Train ", to me there was little warmth in Pernell's characterisation. Maybe the fault, if any, lay in something cold/ resistable in the actor himself : I'd have preferred someone more likeable in the role, such as Robert Fuller (who made an impression in the "Laramie" programme that, like "Bonanza", ran from the late '50s).

Cos they left God and jjoined the greedy world. sad

Ward Bond.was once part of the John Ford acting.troupe . He died in 1960.

If he were detested it's because he was probably correct. Hollywood always has been the lair of Bolshevic's.

Must be before she met Jed

Not much of a fainting actress, lol

@Sunshine Baker My goodness. If you hadn't pointed out that Mr. Ward Bond abused himself so, I wouldn't have guessed.

What is it about the internet that causes people to be so rude, nasty and sarcastic with each other. I wonder if they would be so bold face to face? I doubt it.

Metro Promise Trouble is, words can be interrupted one way or another. I’ve found, sometimes, I try to be serious and I’m taken for sarcastic! People read into a statement what they want to and it’s sad when a real misunderstanding spoils a conversation. I just don’t see a way to clarify a comment unless you actually say how you mean it to be taken.

Shahanna Grey Yes that happened to me. A couple years ago, I made a casual comment, not rude at all, about a pop singer. I got some vicious, profanity-laced replies, by people who, ironically, accused me of being a "hater." They should look in the mirror!

Metro Promise I know exactly what you mean. Some people just take Every comment as a criticism. There’s no way they can see any point of view except their own narrow one and if you disagree even Slightly, they go on the attack. I’ve had to delete comments And block people to get them off my back!!

Yes, there is -- Just search "Wagon Train", it has 1.3k members. 🙂 I'm new to this series, I found it on KZfaq and I'm really enjoying it!

Glendon Stanley yes.. there is a page called Robert Horton and/Wagon Train.. join us!

The wagon master quotes the King James version of the bible accurately: "Judge not that ye be not judged" -- www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+7%3A1&version=KJV . Right above the quote on that link is a box that can be used to read the verse in other versions.

Ive played it twice + he's saying - Let ye be not judged - let can be - that or and + it'd be the same thing -so you won't be judged

"Judge not, that ye be not judged" is what he said. It's an older form of English that means, "Don't judge others so you won't be judged yourself." When the Bible was first translated into English in the 1300s, double negatives were proper English (used for emphasis, the way we use italics or bold print today) and many contractions didn't exist. Then a newer translation (King James) came out in the 1600s, which is what he's quoting here. But the language can still sound strange to us today.

Creo que algunos episódios tienen subtítulos en español. Pero yo no recuerdo qué episódios (porque yo hablo inglés mejor que yo hablo español).

yOU'RE WAY overthinking it.

Complex Networks dead mans gun

Complex Networks !

Also their six shooters fired 20 rounds A horse could gallop full speed all day every one had a Winchester lever action Everyone spoke English you could always tell which women wasn't a virgin because she wore the saloon dress all men wore six shooters and wore 10 gallon hats BUT they are and always will be the best of TV. No nudity no fowl language no gory bloody death And each story had a lesson to be learned.

@@truthbetold3550 Great point.

+lddsband Yes..Irene Ryan..Granny Clampet.

Well it ain’t vinda villyey

No granny wasn't a Clampett she was Jed's wife Rose Ellens mother, Daisy Moses.

Lol I caught both of those as well 😉

If god created Adam, and we are all descendants of Adam, we all must be in-bred. Never ending in-breeding.

You are missing a chance to know Him and enjoy eternity with us. Seek Jesus. Read the Bible.

This is just my opinion, but I believe God is speaking to you which is why you love this episode. ❤️

@@zxyatiywariii8 Indeed. I believe God loves you, me and the one who doesn't believe in Creator's existence.

Then you don't believe in me either. But here I am talking to you!? I'm a messenger from God. The signs are all around you.

A true "bait" for the fans of this old show. Do you believe in Science - Physics? Quantum Physics has discovered and established a list of Universal Laws (ie facts that are absolute given the elements that make up our us and the universe, energy, how the vibration rate of energy results in matter, etc.) These Universal Laws include: The Law of Attraction, and this indicates that *"like attracts like"* and an example would be those whom share common beliefs, skills, or traits, tend to congregate in groups. Groups of friends, associates, and professionals. This law more deeply describe those beliefs, thoughts, and our feelings associated with each relative subject. Further it defines that our: *thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and actions, produce and also send out vibrations, these vibrations are easily understood when we attract intent to them. Our intent to complete a project, to finish college, to get a particular job, etc. Adjust these studies it was ascertained that all that we see in our reality are first, "thoughts", and as a result of our thoughts - the means, ways, and actual manifestations line up - matching the energy of the thoughts. If one "thinks they can, do or have something, the will realize that they can and do", and the same for "8f they think they can't". The think, ie thought is further and often more deeply rooted in *belief* and also has an even higher vibration in *the feelings that surround and are attached to that belief"* Now with all this on mind, let me also share the Quantum Physicist's general core point on this LOA/Law if Attraction, and that being: *"Thought is 1sst required in order for 'anything' to manifest ...into physical solid form"* ...yep, you're right... this means: *"the Bang came 2nd"* Now, however one chooses to conceive and describe the K8nfinite Intelligence, which very much exists in our Physical and our Non-Physical experiences, (Non-Physical being defined as the Human Soul Energy, and "energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it is eternal", thus - each and every Human has an attached energy we define as their Soul. This is where Science can be said to support Spiritual - and don't let Spiritual be confused with Religion. Religion is: "the So Cal practice of a common belief interpretation" and this allowe for mortal minds defining of subjects, setting tiles, and limiting that which their believers can imagine as right, wrong, God, and even the limitations man decided to place on "God/Source/Creator". On the matter of Creator, don't trip up on the human vs spiritual there either, as certainly humans can hybrid various thing, even clone beings, yet humans can not create energy, thus it would be an obvious decision if the Ultimate Creator whether or not to Grace a Human of any form with a Soul energy". Note: many believe that Ancient Texts describe a peoples called the Anunaki - as being Human forms from another planet that came to earth for harvesting needs they desired for themselves and their planet. And in coming here they were said to have created the sort of modern human beings that we are, with several approaches including the infusion of their DNA with a current earth evolved like being. And they interpret this to be the Genius we know of Adam and Eve. To put all this in perspective requires some time and thought. One thought scenario I would suggest be considered is: Regardles of One's idea of how we originated and from whom, the facts remain - there exists an eenergy we call Soul and then the Human Vessel, and that Human is quite remarkable in all of its subject, the phisology, it's Mind - the Ego Mind, Conscious Thought, the more Mature Higher Mind. ...and adjust that Human and that Ego-Mind exists the observable potential for chronic desire for Power and in the gaining of that Power, men and women have absolutely contrived and applied countless measure of means to achieve their Power desire. That would and does include: the misleading of peoples through fears, Guilts, and down right unethical measures, such as - Editing facts, misinterpretatiins, and years of conspired withholding of information. How to know there's a God? First, don't think of God. as a human, not a king, nor a man - think Bigger - way Bigger - think about the Force that holds planets in this universe and keeps the Sun rising everyday, think dimensions, think space and time, and think of all that man accomplishes vs the accomplishments far far greater in even the touch of a child looking for reassurance and only wanting to love, create, and be loved. We are quite limited when we ignore the Possibilities, and we are quite phenomenal when we *think thoughts that are positive towards a positive desire, with feeling and belief"* and we know there are no limitations to our Creating our Dreams and Desires. Every single human in this planet, manifests their thoughts, every single day. To know that it you're not happy in your reality and you merely change those thoughts and feel/believe, that you can actually manifest a more desired reality - that my dear is *Stellar* and fact and that *is a defining trait of what I feel God is and had given to each of us. * In the Bible, Jesus is said to have used a reference to" *"Faith, the size of a Mustard Seed...." it *was not a metaphor* I encourage anyone whom chances to read this comment reply to Google and Read the passage - What the mind can conceive, the heart believe, then the individual can and will *receive* - that just gives me butterflies every time I think about it! Peace does begin within ... Peace be with you ...
