You have the best quality of television shows on any channel. Thank you.

A Collider article about Rod Serling's forgotten yet underrated western series brought me here.

Fantastic series with Lloyd Bridges & written by Rod Serling. Loved Lloyd Bridges in Sea Hunt - I was a little kid in a small town in Florida. Didn’t know about this western but saw plenty of great ones The Texan, The Tall Man, etc. of course Gunsmoke & Have Gun Will Travel, Rifleman. This series would have been a favorite.

Great story and you can see and feel the Rod Serling touch .

I thought I had seen all TV western shows as a kid. Have to say I never heard of this one and it's a great one.

This is a good step up with better script and better acting.

First time ever seeing or hearing about this show an am an old head too...there were alot of westerns made during the 60s

Wow, this was absolutely awesome. Very, very good.

Lloyd Bridges aka Mike Nelson from Sea Hunt one of my old time favorite shows from the fifties and early sixty's. Thanks for the upload.

Thanks for the upload, I did not even know about this series.

WOW 😳 I thought 💭 I had watched every Western on the inter-web and then [YOU] share this... Thanks 🙏🏻

the loner is a very nice series,and i think this episode is one of the best. The story,acting,everything is perfect here. Thanks for the upload. This is 30 minitues western tv in top form. no doubt. The loner was broadcasted in japan too, but somehow underrated over here. Glad to see it again ,with the excellent title music. Thanks again.

You are very welcome my friend .I just now stumbled on it myself and glad of it .seems like it's a very good series . Have a good day and thanks for the nice comment ,

Great Score, Great writing, The Immortal Rod Serling

This was truly a great representation of the United States of America 🇺🇸. A great move.

What an emotional rollercoaster! Really enjoyed it, thanks and blessings for posting this. 😊👏🙏👍👍

I had no idea that Rod Serling did a Western. This was very well done.

One of the best western programs, I've seen Lloyd Bridges star in. His portrayal in this program was very well done. Acting was very natural looking, along with the story. Always like Lloyd in Sea Hunt as well. Enjoyed watching... thanks for posting.

Was so wrapped up in The Rifleman, The Texan, Gunsmoke, Palladin, and Bonanza that I never saw this series with Lloyd in the 50s. Nice change of pace for the old days.(ls)

Wow,I didn't read you mention the longest running western of all time and one of the best GUNSMOKE!!!

Another made for TV series never seen. This with Lloyd Bridges and written by Rod Serling! Grew up watching Twilight Zone and Sea Hunt! There was a time this country was like this. People would help others and those who were the recipients repaid that kindness by becoming productive members of the community. Nowadays they just want more. If they don't get it, they leave.

This came out in 65', reflecting the time , the economy was okay and people still had life long jobs like at the Steel mills and car plants , also the draft and the war took most of the young adults , so crime was down some , now there is too many people and people are living longer and we are running out of everything . Rod Serling was a man with a vision and tried to do it with the Twilight Zone and burnt him out . There is a few videos on here interviewing him .

Dan Reese : If you were alive then, you misremember the times. Kennedy, Jack & Bobby assassinated along with Dr King. LA Rebellion in 1964 burned for two weeks, destroyed two square miles of Watts, never rebuilt. Thousands arrested, hundreds killed. Riots, burning, looting in every major city in 1966, 1967, 1968, 1972, 1974. Anti-war protests whose activists became university professors, setting the stage for today's "Antifa." These Westerns were nostalgia for "simpler times," which never existed. Post-war American westward expansion was an explosive, violent time, although more people in the West died of starvation than from any other cause.

Michael Fleming is correct. The welfare state didn't exist before the 1960s. Mutual-aid societies populated the country for 2 centuries and because of that spirit no one ever starved in the fledgling nation known as the USA.

Big-time Lloyd Bridges fan here. I really don't remember this show as a kid (we probably watched Uncle or something like that) but this is a pretty cool show. You can tell Serling had a hand in it - the story and script both had high production values. Too bad it didn't last longer so I would have had a crack at watching it first-run. Now I have to go to Walmart and find the DVD set for this series!

Excellent portrayal of man who's not a natural English speaker.

This series though a western is similar to the Twilight Zone, i.e., it has that sort of feel. Loyd Bridges was a very good actor and Rod Serling a special writer.

I love these movies

Well done 30 minute Westerns in black and white. A favorite format...

the Loner Starring Lloyd Bridges as William Colton; Guest Performers: David Opatashu, Warren Stevens, Paul Sorrenson, Al Checco, John Mitchum, & Hank Jones.

It's too bad the people aren't like that today, giving someone a hand up instead of a handout. If we were like that today our nation would be a lot stronger.

It was an interesting choice for lead actor by Rod Serling. Bridges became somewhat a loner himself for a short time after he became a “friendly witness” for the government and ratted on his fellow actors and friends. I forgave him and still enjoy his work. Rest in peace, Mr. Bridges.

+Richard K So he testified for the government against a Communist front group, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm sick of hearing people parrot pro-Soviet propaganda. Communism is responsible for the deaths of more people in the last 100 years than any other political system and it's a disgrace to our country to hear it defended in any way. Perhaps you should talk to people whose families were murdered by those godless thugs before you defend it.

I would like to see more of these... It looks like a really good show... Lloyd Bridges looks really good in this part.

Serling was a Jew who, like many Jews, found both welcome and prosperity in US. This show is a sign of the times c. 1960 when US was greatest country on Earth. Excellent cast and script.

that's was a good show, rod Sterling ¿ talk about going backwards 😂😂🤣 he did a good job, my compliments sir

Great show. This is third show popped up on my you tube feed in past 2 days.Westerner,mackenzies raiders and now the loner. If not for you tube I would not know these existed. Hopefully all episodes are up as I have only seen a few of Yancy Derringer.

The Cossacks are in America.

Years ago I had an elderly friend who came from Latvia as a boy around the time of World War 2. He was Jewish and his family had a local department store. Many stories of early Twentieth Century life including stories about Prohibition and New York in the 30s and 40s. Like Hyman, he also loved America. Once I asked him if he still had relatives in Latvia. He sadly replied that they were all killed by the Nazis.

Hey was a good TV Series Lloyd Bridges was great Actor would love to see more first time seeing this nice Thank you much 😄😀😁 .

Excited to discover this. Any more to the series? Impressed that the horse Joshua drank when the actor drank; something you never see in other westerns of the era. Normally only the people drink and they ignore the horses. Thanks for this.

very nice episode.

Lloyd Bridges aka Gar Stanton in the movie City of Bad Men with Dale Robertson

never heard of and saw the show

lloyd was so good never flashy just competent.brilliant performance a decent man heading west to forget the horror of war.will not stand for injustice though.has spent 5 years killing people so doesnt need to show how good he is great portrayal .

That was a great story. No surprise that it's from Rod Serling.

class acting

Only one episode exist? The loner is great

Great David opatoshu

I would like to see all the episodes.

got no horse, got no gun. you might think, i'm a wandering bumb. make the rest up yourself

Great series. Too good to last long, so it never had all usual obligatory episodes. Hero falls in love to lady who dies episode. Hero wrongly convicted of murder episode. Hard case Irishman episode. Old friend now a bad guy episode. Self-piteous guest star holding a dark secret episode. Etc., etc.

Any more episodes 🤔 loner

WOW!
