Kind of random- I was looking for the Cannonball Run (the original, not II) to rent online and you cant find it anywhere. Looks like you have to buy the DVD- Not on Itunes, Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc..

Just a heads up for anyone interested, I ran across a special on CMT this evening called "The Bandit", about Burt Reynolds and Hal Needham, how they got their start and working together from then on. Pretty damn good so far, lots of old footage and interviews. :cool::)

He appears in several old pre Festus B&W Gunsmokes.
Dan Patrick re ran an interview they did and it reminds you how naturally smart and funny he was.
Never heard of him until my sisters talked him up when he did the COSMO fold out.

Burt was the halfbreed blacksmith Quint for about 3 seasons. He came at the end of Chester, Dennis Weaver and at the beginning of Festus, Ken Curtis....He shared a bit of both well known dodge City deputies.

I loved Festus and his country style....'Us Haggens can track a bird across open sky...." and "Us Haggens can find a man where he ain't to be found". :D

I was watching Roy Rogers this week and Charles Bronson was a boxer in a traveling side show. He robbed banks as a sideline and Roy got in the ring to box Bronson to get closer to figuring out the MO.
What a story line.

Reynolds pops up from time to time in these old westerns too. Leonard Nimoy also.

If you have a hacked firestick or the like The Cannonball Run is in there. I watched it a couple of months ago. The opening scene with the lambo was filmed near Henderson and Boulder City. In one of the shots you can see the Railroad Pass Casino in the background.

Me too.
I still watch the reruns on INSP. It brings back memories of watching Gunsmoke with our family.
I always liked Ken Curtis better than Dennis Weaver.
