    If you're going to limit it to the 70's then I'll go with Alias Smith & Jones too...include the 60's and throw Rawhide and Maverick into the mix and well I'd probably still stump for Hayes and Curry but it'd be closer.

    Though it's not on your list...I think 'High Plains Drifter' was a 70's job. That be my fav!

    What decade was the "dollar" series made in?

    A fistful of dollars
    For a few dollars more
    The good, the bad and the ugly

    Clint Eastwood

    Spaghetti western at its finest or did you intend to limit this to TV series?
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    The Movie 'Maverick' had a couple of actors from the 70's TV westerns at the poker table scene on the boat...Trampus (Big Valley) and Manalito (High Chaparral) maybe a couple of others but they are the two I recall.

    I don't think I've ever seen The Big Valley - not sure we even got it in the UK. Lee Majors will always be The Fall Guy for me...I'm prolly a wee bit too young for that bionic stuff...
