TVXOHOF, AUGUST 2022 - GOLDIE


August is the month in which the Television Crossover Hall of Fame celebrates the TV Western.  For 2022, we’re featuring something a little different and without making a big deal out of the induction….

GOLDIE

From myfriendflicka.dom -
Some have suggested that this horse that was ridden by Jack Kelly in the ‘Maverick’ TV series which ran from 1957 to 1962 was our Goldie.  Kelly played Bart Maverick, starting with the eighth episode of the series.  In the storyline, Bart--in desperate need of transportation--purchased the horse (coincidently named Goldie) from a passer-by in the episode "Betrayal."  Just a few episodes later, he gave Goldie to a young admirer in the episode "The Lass With the Poisonous Air."

The shows which qualify this distinctive horse just make the bare minimum requirements for membership.  But I would not be surprised if Goldie was featured in other shows….                                                                                                         

‘Maverick’
- ‘Betrayal’
- ‘The Lass With The Poisonous Air’

- 'Hadley's Hunters'

- "Duel At Sundown"

O'Bservation - In this shot, we now have four members of the Television Crossover Hall of Fame.  In order of induction: Bart Maverick, Bret Maverick, John Wesley Hardin, and now Goldie!


O'Bservation: There are O'Bviously more team-ups between Bart and Goldie.



‘Sugarfoot’


‘F Troop’

In my interpretation of the Toobworld timeline, Goldie is the same horse throughout, changing ownership as the years passed.  Corporal Randolph Agarn, in the years immediately following the American Civil War, was perhaps Goldie's first saddlemate.

Welcome to the TVXOHOF, Goldie!
