Rawhide season 4, a bit of disappointment.

[the ringo kid]

Kinda disappointed with Rawhide:season 4-though only seen slightly over half of it. It appears at least for now-that Sheb Wooley (the scout) has left the show. His replacement is OK-seen him used in a few episodes so far. Dunno the actors name and forgot his characters name but?? id rather have seen this newby as an addition to the cast and NOT a replacement.

Sheb was probably busy with the Purple People Eater.

Ive seen him in one movie: The War Wagon--he gets punched out by John Wayne.

 

[OFT II]

The first movie that I can remember Sheb Wooley in was "High Noon". The last one was "Hoosiers".

Yes, "High Noon," he was the drinker and the first gunman killed---he died because he wanted a woman's flowery hat.

He was also the cavalry sergeant in "Silverado."

I wasnt aware he was in either of them. I have High Noon on dvd but aint watched it iin awhile-never seen the other.

Btw, the replacement characters name is Clay Forrester.

In The War Wagon-Duke punched him out to get the pistol and gunbelt back that he'd permanently "borrowed" after Duke had lost his ranch to Lomax.

Sheb Wooley was one of the Miller gang in High Noon. I'm not familiar with his prior acting background, but that bad guy role probably helped his career more than anything else he did.

"...They fired me because they were paying me a million dollars a year," Fleming told TV Guide in 1965, after a bloodletting that also saw the departures of cast members Sheb Wooley, James Murdock and Robert Cabal. (Not quite true; Fleming was then making $220,000.) But money played a part, certainly, and no one tried to hide it. Executive producer Ben Brady was up front about that in explaining why Wooley went and Steve Raines stayed. "Both played straightforward cowboys," he said. "They duplicated each other. We dropped Wooley because he was more expensive than Raines."
