What happens

Tate is an American Western television series starring David McLean that aired on NBC from June 8 until September 14, 1960, followed by reruns on the 21st and 28th. It was created by Harry Julian Fink (the creator of Dirty Harry and T.H.E. Cat), who wrote most of the scripts, and produced by Perry Como's Roncom Video Films, Inc., as a summer replacement for The Perry Como Show. Richard Whorf guest-starred once on the series and directed the majority of the episodes. Ida Lupino directed two segments. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
