Rawhide: The Fourth Season, Vol. 2

Rawhide - The Greatest TV Western
First, I would like to thank CBS/Paramount for continuing to produce Rawhide on DVD. However, the wait between seasons 3 and 4 was way too long. Hopefully, they will produce seasons 5 to 8 in yearly installments beginning in 2012.
The artwork on the DVD's is excellent. However, someone forgot Eric Fleming on the season 4, volume 2 artwork.
CBS produced 30 episodes for the 1961-62 season.
The last two episodes filmed, "The Devil and the Deep Blue" and "Abilene" were a 2 episode arc about the herd arriving in Abilene. (This was similar to what they did in season 3, with "Near the Promised Land" and "The Big Blowout", about the herd arriving in Sedelia).
"Abilene" was scheduled to air May 18,1962, but was pulled and a a repeat of the "Peddler" aired instead. "Abilene" was next scheduled to lead off as the season premiere for the 1962-63 season, to air September 21,1962. (Coincidently, "The Devil and the Deep Blue" was rerun on Sept. 14,1962). It was again pulled from...

Great Western
I cannot get tired of this series. I heard Westerns Channel plans to air the series starting in January. Looks like I'll be watching more of "Rawhide" than I expected. I am very picky about the picture quality of the TV shows and CBS has done a magnificent job transferring them from the original masters for this DVD release. If you are concerned about whether or not the episodes are uncut, unedited or gorgeous quality have no fear. Buy with confidence. I hope CBS puts them all out.

Glad they make Rawhide available
I always liked Rawhide. It was certainly one of the most interesting Western series with its fine actors, great production values, and sometimes unconventional plot twists. I've bought the entire series up to now.
