DVD Reviews of Wagon Train
DVD Review: One of the classic TV Westerns of the 1950s/1960s
Summary: 3 Stars
This is another one of many television series from the 1950s and 1960s that is awaiting an official studio release. Were it not for "public domain" releases like this three-episode, single-disc DVD from Alpha Video, we might not be able to see some of the television classics from TV's "golden age" on DVD. So, in this regard, I appreciate the fact that at least a few episodes are available. As to the episodes themselves, the three included here are all from the 1960s when John McIntire starred as Wagonmaster Chris Hale. They include "The Doctor Denker Story," "The Malachai Hobart Story," and "Alias Bill Hawks." These episodes, either alone or in various combinations, have been available on a few Western TV compilations, but this is one of the very few DVDs where you can get all three of them on a single disc. While none of these are particularly standout episodes, they are representative of the series and include a few guest stars like Theodore Bikel and Franchot Tone. Look for Irene Ryan of "The Beverly Hillbillies" in "The Malachi Hobart Story."
The episodes on Alpha's DVD, though not restored, are of decent audio/visual quality. It remains to be seen as to whether or not we'll ever see an official release of the "Wagon Train" series. As such, I recommend this DVD for fans of the series.
My rating is actually closer to *** & 1/2.
