What happens

The Guns of Will Sonnett is an American Western television series set in the 1870s that was broadcast in color on the ABC television network from 1967 to 1969. The series, which began with the working title, "Two Rode West", was the first production collaboration between Aaron Spelling and Danny Thomas, who would later go on to produce The Mod Squad. The series is distributed by CBS Television Distribution (under the moniker KWP Studios) and, when telecast, is usually seen in tandem with another 1960s short-lived Western series, the Mark Goodson-Bill Todman production Branded; King World was previously responsible for distributing both shows. It was filmed on location at various sites near Los Angeles, including Wildwood Regional Park in Thousand Oaks, California. The series is noted for containing Jack Nicholson's final appearance in episodic television. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
