Laramie (TV series)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Laramie was a television series aired on NBC from 1959 to 1963. Laramie was a Revue Studios production which originally starred John Smith as Slim Sherman, Robert Fuller as Jess Harper, Hoagy Carmichael as Jonesy and Robert Crawford, Jr. as Andy Sherman. Later Spring Byington and Dennis Holmes joined the cast as Miss Daisy Cooper and Mike Williams. The story was about two brothers and a drifter who come together to run a stagecoach stop for the Great Central Overland Mail. The series ran for four seasons and is considered by some to be one of the best family oriented westerns of its time.

When the series ended, Robert Fuller went straight to the television series Wagon Train, where he replaced lookalike Robert Horton, who'd just quit the show, as the scout.

Actually, Robert Fuller did not replace Robert Horton. Horton had been gone a good number of years before Fuller's character, Cooper Smith entered the picture
