What about Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman? Since I rarely watch TV, I wouldn't consider myself knowledgeable about the show, but wasn't it a TV Western?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.182.165.247 (talk) 02:54, 6 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Why does Paradise not get a redirect to Guns of Paradise, or a dismbiguation? Like many, I'd think of Paradise first. Trekphiler 21:50, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The US TV series Fury (which I can't see in this page) became widely popular in Italy in the '70s, and the opening song of the Italian edition is still known by everybody. The web site [[1]] suggests that the TV show might as well be known as Brave Stallion.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Brunato (talk) • contribs) 21:23, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the Fury TV series I remember from my childhood, I wouldn't really classify it as a western. It was similar to the Lassie TV series, except that it was about a boy and his horse instead of a boy and his dog. The horse rescued the boy and his family from various disasters. I believe it took place in contemporary times. Clampton 21:49, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Probably you are right, I just suffered from a cultural cliché: "if it's American and has horses in it, then it's a western"... (BTW, sorry for no signing my previous message) Brunato 10:49, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WorldCat Genres

[edit]

Hello, I'm working with OCLC, and we are algorithmically generating data about different Genres, like notable Authors, Book, Movies, Subjects, Characters and Places. We have determined that this Wikipedia page has a close affintity to our detected Genere of western-films. It might be useful to look at [2] for more information. Thanks.

Bonanza Note

[edit]

The note for Bonanza reads, "The second longest-running western series and the longest-running series of all-time," which seems self-contradictory. Arnold Rothstein1921 (talk) 16:33, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Edited to conform with Bonanza article. Arnold Rothstein1921 (talk) 00:54, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Should a web series be on this list?

[edit]

Entry for Red Bird got me excited at a new western TV show in 2016, then on its page I discovered it's a series of 8 3-5 minute clips on YouTube. Siftrusks (talk) 06:21, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of TV WesternsList of westerns on television – Simply a better, more clear title – it also matches the parent article, which is Westerns on television. Failing that, "television" should be spelled out, so the alternative would be List of television westerns. --IJBall (contribstalk) 23:03, 24 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
