I can’t listen to that whole thing, can’t he just list them? That guy is annoying to listen to and I don’t agree anyway! I kept fast forwarding it! :P

Shows you the pesent state of the popularity of westerns.  Eight of the ten on the list are dead.  Eastwood and Duvall are both 92.

 

Fortunately I did not have to suffer through the list.  I clicked on the YouTube symbol then clicked more info and a written list popped down.

I’m surprised how little Tom Selleck gets mentioned in any of these videos 

Selleck is #1 on my list!

That's a good selection; covers all the bases, and is fast. In fact, my only question is Fess Parker-- if he's a Western star, so is Daniel Day Lewis!

Lewis was a pretty good Hawkeye, the version with him in it is one of my favorites, but I think you’re right. It’s kinda pre western

When does the West of the Western begin? Good discussion there. Hawkeye and Daniel Boone went West. So did the Mountain Men, and the California Forty-niners. And there's Texas.

 

Or was it only after the Civil War, when most of the movies are set? Was it when the cartridge firearm began to replace the percussion?

Last of the Mohicans was pre revolutionary war so I couldn’t qualify that as a western. I guess I think about it in the terms of the great western expansion. So post civil war? I think an argument could be made for any time after the Louisiana purchase

Pretty much my point of view. The movement into the far West was well underway before the Civil War, of course. California and Oregon were states before the war began....
