5 out of 5 stars MCQUEEN IS GREAT IN SEASON TWO.......2007-04-30

I have seen most of the episodes for season two and Mcqueen is more comfortable in the character of Josh Randall then he was in season one. In fact some of these episodes are more of a comedy than a drama. In Wanted Dead or Alive Steve Mcqueen shows why he was the top box office star of the 60s and 70s. I must buy for a Steve Mcqueen fan.

5 out of 5 stars A great show .......2007-04-15

The Second season was the peak in this short lived show, it lasted for only Three seasons and 94 episodes. After placing 16th out of the best 30 TV shows in the First Season, the Second season placed even higher when it placed 9th out of the best 30 TV shows during the period from October 1959 until April 1960, having 28.7% of viewers, according to the Nielsen rating (The Nielsen rating is the percent of all TV-equipped homes tuned to the program on an average night, as measured by Nielsen Media Research).

The Second season consisted of 32 episodes and they are as follows:

37- Montana Kid 9/5/1959

5 out of 5 stars Josh and His "Mare's Laig" Ride Again! ! ! !".......2007-04-01

One of the most memorable and famous characters of the '50's Western genre was Steve McQueen's "Josh Randall", who spoke softly (with the Southern drawl he cultivated in his early days roaming around the South, particularly Myrtle Beach, S.C.) and carried a Big Gun, the sawed-off Winchester lever-action rifle then known as the "Mare's Laig". I remember the excitement each week eagerly waiting for each episode of this great Western.
It's release on DVD has been just too long a wait!
One of my fondest childhood memories was the weekend I spent with my Dad, helping him to hand make my own custom-made leather belt rig from scratch for my toy "Mare's Laig" in time for use as part of a Halloween costume when the plastic original proved to be a poor replica.
With all the second- and third-rate wastage flooding the DVD market lately, it's really great to see SOMEBODY bring back such a great actor in this really great Western!

5 out of 5 stars GOOD GUYS - BAD GUYS .......2007-06-15

The mystery and intrigue sets an excellent pace to figuring who to root for.
Nick Randall, bounty hunter - the hunted deserved everything they got.
Don't mess with his friend or his girl. Or there will be hell to pay.

Malak Al Rahim - made one huge mistake - he messed with both.

Randall was smart enough to make the stake-out and his FBI friend made him. The stake-out was stupid enough to walk into his end.

Really like the loft living area that Randall had and kept his friend's bike there. Ah well, the blonde wig done him in.

Rutger Hauer can not top "Ladyhawk"'s Navarre for a romantic image but his Randall character [and others] "Blind Fury" and "Split Secong" - just prove his acting ability - oh yes, "Bladerunner" [gross] to mention a few.

DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED - great collection for viewing.

4 out of 5 stars Pointless 80's Action Hero Drivel - But Fun To Watch!.......2007-05-11

Wanted Dead Or Alive was one of those out-of-control lone wolf cop movies that came out in droves in the mid-to-late 80s. All these movies (Cobra, Runaway, Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, etc....) aspired to be Dirty Harry. Some succeeded, most did not. Wanted Dead or Alive was Rutger Hauer's turn at playing the vigilante cop living on the edge. Watching it now, this movie is hilarious. Since his role as the terrorist in Night Hawks (Sylvester Stallone & Bily Dee Willams) and his role as the psycho in The Hitcher, Hauer seemed to be lapsing in the tough-as nails roles. Wanted Dead Or Alve does nothing to bring him back. Rutger Hauer is one of those actors that just play a better villian. As a villian, Hauer is creepy, vile, ruthless and cold. As the good guy, just not as believable. The saving grace of this predictable action cop movie is Gene Simmons (KISS) as the evil terrorist. He must have taken notes from Hauer, because he is ruthless and cold. He shoots without flinching. Great role for him. Overall, Wanted Dead or Alive is a fun watch mostly for the nostalgic 80s feel and for Gene Simmons'turn as a psycho killer.

Dig It!

I have been a fan of Rutger Hauer since BLADE RUNNER,I think he is a fabulous actor and does justice to any part he is in.Wanted dead or alive is no exception, he gets the bad guys like no one else, i get a real kick of satisfaction as he disposes of each villan.The guy from KISS with the big tongue did a suprisingly good job as the terrorist to. LOVED IT.....

The uniquely cool talent that propelled Steve McQueen to movie stardom is fully evident in the debut season of Wanted: Dead or Alive. Having just boosted his big-screen potential with a starring role in The Blob, 28-year-old McQueen was reluctant to accept the role of bounty hunter Josh Randall in this trend-setting series; he balked at the demanding schedule and thought himself too contemporary for a Western series, but the producers (including Four Star Productions cofounders Dick Powell and Ida Lupino) were convinced that McQueen was perfect for the role, and the still-struggling actor couldn't refuse a $750-per-week salary. Once committed, McQueen developed Randall into an antihero with conflicting qualities of danger and compassion: With his infamous "Mare's Leg" (an 1892 Winchester rifle with sawed-off stock and barrel) and calm demeanor, Randall maintained his tough-guy image as a mercenary outcast. Capable of attack without warning, he could also be generous to the needy, never seeking credit for his kindness. In these 36 consistently enjoyable episodes (out of a three-season total of 94), McQueen builds the prototype of his later success; he's a man of few words and volatile action, and his expressions (including a mischievous smile) convey quick-draw instinct and an amiable yet potentially deadly ability to fend off all enemies.

Randall was introduced in a March 1958 episode of the Western series Trackdown, and Wanted: Dead or Alive was an instant hit when it premiered on CBS on September 6, 1958. With surprising quirks of character (his "favorite tune" is Chopin's C-flat Nocturne), Randall was a new kind of hero, and Wanted further benefited from quality writing, direction, and familiar guest stars (including first-season appearances by Michael Landon, James Coburn, Skip Homeier, Everett Sloane, and many other stalwarts of late-'50s TV). The season 1 DVDs include a wealth of bonus features, including show history, a McQueen biography, three "series analysis" featurettes," photo galleries, and the A&E Biography segment "Steve McQueen: Life in the Fast Lane" split into six parts. Image and sound quality varies from excellent to average, and three episodes that were badly "colorized" in the 1980s are also included. They're hideous proof that colorization was a bad idea, but they indicate the extra effort that was made to provide features that Wanted fans will surely appreciate. --Jeff Shannon

Description

Own the hit television series that launched the career of big-screen legend Steve McQueen. Josh Randall (McQueen) was not a typical rough-hewn bounty hunter of the Old West; he was a consummate gentleman who always gave half - or even all - of his reward money to charity. He was a man of few words, and he carried a Winchester sawed-off shotgun, which he wore on his belt and fondly called his "Mare?s leg."

5 out of 5 stars Great Western Series.......2007-06-25

It's amazing what television used to be able to do with a half hour dramatic series. Steve McQueen's acting style reflected the pacing of Wanted Dead or Alive: lean, straight-forward, no trivialities. McQueen's Josh Randall is truly a classic and memorable western character. Looking forward to season 2.

4 out of 5 stars They don't make them like this anymore........2007-05-21

At long last i have some decent old westerns to watch again.This is one of the best TV westerns and it still is very good even after all this time.As yet i have not watched it all but am watching it bit by bit to prolong the enjoyment until i can get the second series.I don't worry about the mistakes etc but the reproduction is surprisingly good for such an old show.Ihope that series three is commig out as i would like to own all of them.Keep up the good work and if you are a fan of old westerns don't miss this one.Wanted: Dead or Alive - Season One

5 out of 5 stars Wanted - Dead Or Alive.......2007-04-25

You should like this if you like Steve McQueen and are interestred in his early career. It's kind of funny now to watch the state of 50's TV, but Steve McQueen, as Bounty Hunter with a heart Josh Randall, is great to watch, being his usual, seemingly detached self. He was tough when he needed to be, but was not above leaving the bounty behind for the benefit of a needy young widow. The series was, of course, in black and white, and events like fist fights reflect the status of 1950's filmmaking.
A great series, very clear and crisp and great viewing.

5 out of 5 stars A Real Classic TV Western.......2007-04-06

If you watched TV in the 50's and 60's or if you like Steve McQueen then this set is for you. The shows are great and the quality is excellent. I've watched the whole Box Set and have had no problems with playing.
Can't wait for Season 2 and wish more of this type of shows would come out.

    Product Description

    War with Iraq began with a bang: President Bush ordered a secret air strike against Saddam Hussein's bunker an assassination attempt that ultimately failed. But Saddam, an assassin himself, has proven to be a survivor many times before. Now, rumors of his whereabouts circulate in Iraq and America; the CIA is in turmoil over the quality of its intelligence; and, "leadership decapitation" is at an impasse. Examine America's decade-long quest to literally kill or capture Saddam Hussein one of the largest, costliest and most frustrating manhunts in history. Historians recount previous attempts on Saddam's life even some of America's "near misses" while key figures debate the ethics of "regime change" against the backdrop of today's global society. Experts foretell how the assassination of Iraq's once-powerful leader could have a surprising impact on laws and institutions right here at home.

    The mystery and intrigue sets an excellent pace to figuring who to root for.
    Nick Randall, bounty hunter - the hunted deserved everything they got.
    Don't mess with his friend or his girl. Or there will be hell to pay.

    Malak Al Rahim - made one huge mistake - he messed with both.

    Randall was smart enough to make the stake-out and his FBI friend made him. The stake-out was stupid enough to walk into his end.

    Really like the loft living area that Randall had and kept his friend's bike there. Ah well, the blonde wig done him in.

    Rutger Hauer can not top "Ladyhawk"'s Navarre for a romantic image but his Randall character [and others] "Blind Fury" and "Split Secong" - just prove his acting ability - oh yes, "Bladerunner" [gross] to mention a few.

    DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED - great collection for viewing.

    4 out of 5 stars Pointless 80's Action Hero Drivel - But Fun To Watch!.......2007-05-11

    Wanted Dead Or Alive was one of those out-of-control lone wolf cop movies that came out in droves in the mid-to-late 80s. All these movies (Cobra, Runaway, Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, etc....) aspired to be Dirty Harry. Some succeeded, most did not. Wanted Dead or Alive was Rutger Hauer's turn at playing the vigilante cop living on the edge. Watching it now, this movie is hilarious. Since his role as the terrorist in Night Hawks (Sylvester Stallone & Bily Dee Willams) and his role as the psycho in The Hitcher, Hauer seemed to be lapsing in the tough-as nails roles. Wanted Dead Or Alve does nothing to bring him back. Rutger Hauer is one of those actors that just play a better villian. As a villian, Hauer is creepy, vile, ruthless and cold. As the good guy, just not as believable. The saving grace of this predictable action cop movie is Gene Simmons (KISS) as the evil terrorist. He must have taken notes from Hauer, because he is ruthless and cold. He shoots without flinching. Great role for him. Overall, Wanted Dead or Alive is a fun watch mostly for the nostalgic 80s feel and for Gene Simmons'turn as a psycho killer.

    Dig It!

    4 out of 5 stars wanted dead or alive.......2007-03-22

    I have been a fan of Rutger Hauer since BLADE RUNNER,I think he is a fabulous actor and does justice to any part he is in.Wanted dead or alive is no exception, he gets the bad guys like no one else, i get a real kick of satisfaction as he disposes of each villan.The guy from KISS with the big tongue did a suprisingly good job as the terrorist to. LOVED IT.....
