The Western genre peaked on television in the late 1950s. Every network loaded its schedule with cowboy adventures. Dozens of Westerns aired. In 1957, you could watch a western every night of the week on one of the big three networks.
But not everything on TV back then was set in the 19th-century Wild West. There were sitcoms, cop procedurals and game shows, too.
We've gathered some lesser-known titles. See if you can guess if these shows were a Western!

14 out of 14. I was expecting some made-up names of shows, but all of the shows mentioned were real.

Wow, do you live in Dodge City? Nice work!
I got lucky. I knew a lot of them & guessed at the rest.

11/14 (should be 12/14, I clicked the right answer on 2, but it said I picked wrong. Sometimes the page jumps on you on some of these quizzes causing that).
11 of 14. Several of these shows I've never even heard of. Me-TV needs to pick up some of these shows instead of rerunning the same ones over and over and over and over....
Fury may have been set on a ranch in the west, but it was definitely not a western!
I totally agree with you. It surprised me when I clicked on not a western and it came back incorrect.

Never heard of Haggis Baggis, but I admit it doesn't even sound like a western.. XD
