Distinctive faces and names, like Cactus, Chill, Dabbs and Denver. Grizzled and countryaccent — you could believe they lived in the Old West. Stars like Dennis Weaver, Steve McQueen and Clint Eastwood got their start as TV cowboys, TV Westerns would be nothing without their cast of supporting character actors.
The 1950s and 60s were a great time to be an actor with western skills. Television was full with Westerns. There were 26 Westerns on the three major networks in 1959. There were dozens of seasoned performers and keen newcomers who showed up in these series. Did you know that just  Gunsmoke had to cast 635 episodes.
