Maverick debuted on ABC television in September 1957
starring James Garner.
This used humor a little more than most westerns and showed a character who just a little more like a normal guy.
Maverick didn't always want to conform to the noble hero who would risk all in a gunfight, not if he could get away with not doing it anyway.
Maverick ran for five seasons and was a major hit for the first two, losing its audience towards the end. Maverick has been redone over the years with tv movies and a show called Young Maverick. And James Garner came back with the return of the original Maverick on NBC.
In the nineties Mel Gibson played Maverick on the big screen and James Garner played his Pappy. The movie by the way is very entertaining and has a great soundtrack with a cool song by Clint Black.
