I loved those old westerns.... not all of them but most. Not to be a downer here but - - -
Had a very close friend, (grew up with him and he lived very close by), that got Parkinson. I would visit him often. He loved "Gene Autry". I wasn't a big fan of Gene but my friend loved the guy. Every visit we'd watch at least 1 episode of Gene... sometimes 3, even 4. Gene didn't entertain me very much BUT..... watching my friend being entertained was golden and made for some of happiest moments I ever had watching TV.
Since he passed.... little over a year ago... I will occasionally tune in an old Gene episode.... not so much to enjoy the show but rather to spend some time with my friend. Nothing quite as great as seeing pure joy on a friends face. - JamesJM
