Kurt Russell has the kind of gruffness that makes him seem born to play Western roles (he’s shown he can grow some mean facial hair, too, which also helps a bunch). Yet it’s surprising to look back on his decades-spanning filmography and see that he’s only been in a handful of theatrically-released Westerns, not including TV work like The Quest, which also had a TV film called The Quest: The Longest Drive. That one’s technically a film, but not a theatrical one, plus it was also definable as a two-part episode of the show.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett.
