Which classic Western is Michael Landon in?

He was in a dozen cowboy shows even before playing Little Joe in Bonanza!

Though Michael Landon will forever be remembered as Little Joe Cartwright in Bonanza and then Charles Ingalls in Little House on the Prairie, he played many more characters in the fictional Old West.

His very first screen role was in the extremely short-lived (two episodes were filmed but only one episode aired) Western Luke and the Tenderfoot. Incidentally, Luke may have failed but many of the actors in it including Landon, Charles Bronson, Lee Van Cleef, Ellen Corby and Leonard Nimoy went on to have long Hollywood careers.

Here is Landon in ten better-known Westerns. Can you name each one he’s in?

I did bad , only 5 out of 10 . Speaking of bad did this board know that : OTA MeTv station "WFOXDT2HD" channel 30.2 in Northeast Florida refuses to air two great TV shows , Andy and Green Acres . They will not answer emails as why they will not !

I knew that was Hoss in the picture, and still didn't pick Bonanza. I got Cheyenne wrong too.

9/10. Missed the last one. I sure wish MeTV would bring back Trackdown and start showing The Adventures of Jim Bowie.

7/10. Missed #7,8, & 9.
Saw the wagon in 9 and thought it might be a hint.
On #8 I only watched Rawhide so it was a tossup on the other ones, and I chose wrong.
And I never even heard of Tombstone Territory.

8/10 missed the Cheyenne and Zane Grey ones. Didn’t see Clint Walker and thought I correctly deduced Wagon Train from the wagon wheel in the background. I was in the fence with Zane Grey and Death Valley Days since they are anthology series with new characters every week.🥴
