BigSkyMax If only this wonderful little show were easily available on DVD! The Feb 19, 1959 episode "Hell or High Water" depicts Yancy saving New Orleans from flood by dynamiting the levee! This episode alone might have prevented the disaster following Katrina...or not. Anyway, this was a marvelous program that remains simultaneously a relic of its era and a charming, romantic, and sincere homage to the great American city of New Orleans. It was only on for one brief year, and, though I was no more than a toddler when it showed, the unique images of Jock Mahoney's Yancy and his stoic Indian sidekick Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah,so powerfully effected my psyche I never forgot them--just like so many other reviewers here. Yet for years, whenever I described the show to fellow Boomers, they shook their head. Nobody else remembered Yancy Derringer. At least not until the Great Mr. Gore invented the Internet! Huzzah and hooray for us all! In 2009 I finally encountered someone with a single old VHS copy of the above episode, so I happily renewed my childhood thrill. CBS--please release this golden oldies treasure.
racolson1 I also loved this show as a kid. For some reason I thought about the show a few weeks ago and searched my dish network grid and found that a local Chicago channel was showing it at 4 am. God I love my DVR and I still love this show! The same station had also shown Have Gun Will Travel (one of my All time favorites) on Saturday nights. The station is WWME (MeTV) channel 26 locally here in Chicago. They run all manner of B/W shows: Maverick, 77 Sunset Strip, Peter Gunn, Naked City, Mr Lucky, Batman, Rat Patrol, Dick Van Dyke, Lucy, and on and on..... I'm hoping for Wanted Dead Or Alive, but who knows.Although X Brands was indeed of German descent and not Native American, the Pawnee Nation actually thought highly of his portrayal.
provide-1 Never missed it. It came on 1/2 hour after school let out and if the bus was late, I'd miss some of the early minutes. The reason Pahoo couldn't speak and signed was that his tongue had been cut out by the Sioux. As a grade schooler,I used to play Pahoo with the neighborhood recreations of the show. I kept a rubber knife in my collar, a toy double barrel under a shoulder carried blanket and a headband with a couple of down pointing feathers. When trouble started, my friend would signal, "Pahoo" and I'd throwback the blanket to give them both barrels. And I never forgot the all important black bars on the cheeks. I never got good with the knife pass routine.
Ben Burgraff (cariart) "Yancy Derringer" was one of those series that dared to be different, a 'Western' that was set in post-Civil War New Orleans. If your memories of Jock Mahoney are of him as a lean, middle-aged Tarzan in his two 1960s appearances as the Ape Man, the show may be something of a surprise. He is soft-spoken, smooth, and dapper, here, and altogether 'cool'.Loaded with a laid-back charm, an Indian partner (X Brand) unique in series television in his status as the hero's 'equal' and not just a 'sidekick' (an episode where the pair take the grievances of the Indian nations to Congress is a personal favorite), and one of the most beautiful theme songs of fifties television, the short-lived program is certainly as 'watchable' as the more successful "Have Gun, Will Travel", "Wanted: Dead or Alive" and the other more 'adult' westerns of the period.If the series re-emerges on one of the 'nostalgia' cable channels, check it out...you won't be disappointed!
