  List of TV Westerns - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A western television show is a Western which takes place in the old west and involves cowboys, cattle ranchers, miners, farmers, Indians, guns and horses.
It was the most popular genre of TV show in the 1950s and 1960s, when a couple hundred of them were aired.
McCloud was a fusion of the western with the modern big-city crime drama.

 Horses - Western Riding - an Introduction with Equiworld - Equestrian Information on the internet
Western Pleasure is one of the most popular western classes, especially for beginners, as showing in a group isn't as nerve-wrecking as showing solo can be.
With western horse shows become increasingly popular earlier in the 20th century, this kind of riding matured into a standardized sport, a sport which in the last quarter of that century really blossomed and produced some truly outstanding performances in a number of events.
Western riding can be roughly divided into two categories, those who just want to trail ride and have a good time, and those who want to show (and have a good time).

The radio show Gunsmoke met with little success in its first year on the air on the CBS radio network (it finally caught on in its second season), though High Noon was a hit at the box office and its star, Gary Cooper, won the Oscar for best actor.
Despite their originality, however, many of the Westerns of the Seventies were rather lack lustre affairs, and quality as much as anything may have killed the television Western, just as it had a part in the movie Western's death.
Those low ratings were probably brought on by a number of factors: the sheer number of shows produced between 1955 and 1975, the overall sameness of Westerns in the history of television, a decline in quality in the TV Western, the programming practices of the Seventies, and an aging audience.

 Great Western Shows
Great Western also challenged the Ordinance on the grounds that it is preempted by state gun control laws and that the County, under California law, has no jurisdiction to legislate inside city boundaries.
Gun show producers are also required to give law enforcement agencies a list of persons and organizations that rent space at the gun shows and provide other information to the Department of Justice and law enforcement agencies.
Furthermore, as Great Western acknowledges, the County renegotiated the lease with the Fair Association, reducing its rental obligations to the County in light of the loss of gun show revenue.
