The Outcasts (TV series)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Outcasts was a short-lived Western television series, appearing on ABC in the 1968-69 season. The series co-starred Don Murray and Otis Young, and is probably most notable for being the first television Western with an African-American co-star.
The series tells the story of white bounty hunter Earl Corey (Murray) who teams up with newly released slave Jemal David (Young) in the 1860s. Although only 26 episodes were made, its short run probably reflected the rapidly-changing U.S. racial climate in the late 1960s more than the quality of the series itself.
