Editorial Reviews

Wanted: Dead or Alive the hit television series that launched the career of Steve McQueen ( Bullitt The Getaway The Thomas Crown Affair ) in 1958 as gentleman bounty hunter Josh Randall. The character originally introduced in an episode of the television Western Trackdown was so popular that the production company created Wanted: Dead or Alive so that McQueen could reprise the role of Randall.Josh Randall was not a typical rough-hewn bounty hunter of the Old West; he was a consummate gentleman who always gave half or even all of his reward money to charity. He was a man of few words and unlike most bounty hunters he carried neither a shotgun nor a rifle but rather an 1892 Winchester lever action pistol which he wore on his belt and fondly called his Mare s leg. Josh Randall s catch phrase Let s go launched him into unforgettable classic Western adventures.Steve McQueen fans and fans of classic television will have a chance to see the early work of such Hollywood luminaries as Steve McQueen as Josh Randall along with James Coburn Martin Landau Dyan Cannon and many more.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 787364795192

This review is from: Wanted: Dead or Alive - Season 3 (DVD)

STEVE MCQUEEN...He had that something..."SPECIAL"... that can take a simple story and turn it into a..."MUST SEE"...production!! Wanted Dead or Alive is a perfect example of just how GREAT an actor he was...This program had Very Talented Writers and Wonderful Costars. But... I can only compare how you feel when MCQUEEN does his thing, to the times I saw TED WILLIAMS come to bat!! You just know that something "VERY SPECIAL" is about to happen!! I don't care what you pay for these DVD's, it's worth every penny....DON'T MISS IT!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The End of a GREAT Ride! ! ! ! !, November 23, 2007

This review is from: Wanted: Dead or Alive - Season 3 (DVD)

One of the most memorable and famous characters of the '50's Western genre was Steve McQueen's "Josh Randall", who spoke softly (with the Southern drawl he cultivated in his early days roaming around the South, particularly Myrtle Beach, S.C.) and carried a Big Gun, the sawed-off Winchester lever-action rifle then known as the "Mare's Laig". I remember the excitement each week eagerly waiting for each episode of this great Western.
It's release on DVD has been just too long a wait! It's great to finally have ALL of this fine show! It's just too bad there wasn't more of it, and that we'll not see the likes of it again!
One of my fondest childhood memories was the weekend I spent with my Dad, helping him to hand make my own custom-made leather belt rig from scratch for my toy "Mare's Laig" in time for use as part of a Halloween costume when the plastic original proved to be a poor replica.
With all the second- and third-rate wastage flooding the DVD market lately, it's really great to see SOMEBODY bring back such a great actor in this really great Western!

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST SEASON, November 9, 2007

This review is from: Wanted: Dead or Alive - Season 3 (DVD)

THIS IS THE BEST SEASON OUT OF THE THREE. SOME OF MY FAVORITE EPISODES ARE IN THIS LAST SEASON. THIS SEASON HAS ALOT OF COOL GUEST STARS AND THE MAIN REASON IS THAT RICHARD DONNER DIRECTS ALOT OF THE EPISODES. IT IS NOT SO MUCH GOOD AGAINST BAD, INSTEAD THE STORIES HAVE TWISTS TO THEM AND GREAT CAMERA WORK. RICHARD DONNER WOULD GO ON TO DIRECT THE LETHAL WEAPON MOVIES AND SUPERMAN.
