Starz! Westerns Channel has gotten the rights to "Alias Smith and Jones." No word on when it will start, but already on the schedule is Gunsmoke (seasons 7-11 B&W), The Lone Ranger, and The Gene Autry Show.

(Note on Gunsmoke, I think Hallmark has seasons 1-6 and TV Land has seasons 12-20.)

So it's gonna be on Encore Westerns too right? Starz! Westerns and Encore Westerns each show "Gunsmoke" (1962-1965 seasons), "The Lone Ranger" and "The Gene Autry Show." I could have sworn that "Alias Smith and Jones" was a crime drama...

I believe so. No it's a pure western (though it has some comedy, lol), TV Land showed it as well before.

I was wild over Alias Smith & Jones when I was a young teen. I was IN LOVE with Peter Duel. I still have the newspaper clipping of his suicide. I remember feeling very sad when he died.
I thought he was gorgeous...those eyes, those dimples.

I've never seen this show. I'm looking forward to it.
