TV ON TV - "JED CLAYTON, U.S. MARSHALL"



Bart Maverick: 
Well, here we are and about time, too. 

Bret Maverick: 
If we take the north trail, we ought to be in Clayton in about four days. 

Bart Maverick: 
Clayton? If we take the south trail, we'll be in Santa Fe tomorrow! 
They tell me th... Oh, I remember now - Adelaide! She lives in Clayton. 

Bret Maverick: 
She does? That's quite a coincidence, isn't it? 

Bart Maverick: 
Uh-huh. Well, you give her my best. 

Bret Maverick: 
You sure you don't want to come to Clayton with me? 

Bart Maverick: 
Not even if she has a sister.

(From "The Jeweled Gun")

Clayton, California, is a real town and has come up in the Old West of Toobworld in another show as well......

I don't like to rely on actual locations for making links between shows, but when it's someplace this "O'Bscure" to the Public's general knowledge, I think we can consider Clayton City and Clayton to be one and the same.

And it's pozz'ble, just pozz'ble, that Bret was there in Clayton City when that famous gunfight occurred.  That could be the "long story" he had to tell Brother Bart when they met up again.....


BCnU!
