The Rifleman 1958-1963 Action TV Series

The Rifleman TV Series

The Rifleman was a Primetime Emmy nominated Western television program ran from September 1958 to April 1963 on ABC under the production of Four Star Television. The black-and-white program starred former athlete Chuck Connors as Lucas McCain, a widower, Union veteran of the Civil War (lieutenant in the 19th Indiana Volunteer Infantry Regiment), and a homesteader. McCain and his son Mark (singer Johnny Crawford) lived on a ranch outside the fictitious town of North Fork, New Mexico Territory.

The series was set in the 1880s. There are also numerous episodes where the date is given in the 1880s. A wooden plaque next to the home stated that it was rebuilt by Lucas McCain and his son Mark in August, 1881. Lucas McCain can fire a round with his specially modified Winchester in three-tenths of a second. That and his resolve enable him to help the sheriff maintain order while raising his son Mark on a ranch near North Fork, New Mexico. It was not like many of the westerns that came out on TV during this time. It stars a man who is tough and carries a modified rifle, and it shows that although he is tough, he is also a good man raising a son alone. Most of the action takes place in North Fork. One of the few quirks in the show was the ineffective town marshall. Lucas McCain got him out of trouble more than once during this series' 5 year run.

Production of the series came from a hectic schedule, only 6 months to go before the series premiere, Al Brodax (head of King Features motion picture television department) hadn't found a studio to produce, anyone to write the scripts and artists who will portray John, Paul, George and Ringo voices.

Production came out a very simple format with caricatures and scripts of their individual personalities, Beatles placed in two situations: the typical one where they were chased by girl fans & media trying to cash in on their success while the second untypical situation, they were fleeing from ghosts, vampires or a lovesick octopus that all were, Beatles fans. American experienced voice artist Paul Frees voiced John Lennon and George Harrison while British familiar Englishman Lance Percival voiced Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. Amazingly, the series captured 52 percent of the audience, an extraordinary profit and success at first season (Saturday morning 10:30 am), with an international flavour of adventures (sets featured different countries & locations), stories loosely based on lyrics of Beatles song which also title of the story and they sing with lyrics appeared on the bottom of the screen. Plus, the caricatures with Beatles' individual traits, John Lennon as leader always chin up, looking down his nose with his jerky movements & almost aggressive, Paul McCartney the most posed and stylish of the band with his hands express whatever he says, George Harrison in his frowning impression was wry with loose limbed and Ringo Starr as Groucho Marx type with clothes always looked too big, the series was very entertaining.

George Harrison noted, “I always king of liked them. They were so bad or silly they were good, if you know what I mean...”

and from John Lennon, “You know I still get a blast out of watching the Beatles cartoons on TV...”

The Beatles Cartoon series became an international hit & on it's syndication, it completed 3 seasons with 39 episodes (total of 78 stories) aired from September 1965 until September 1969, now available on DVD.
