Milton Berle

Renowned comedian Milton Berle, also known to his millions of fans as “Uncle Miltie”, wandered his way into Westerns, dazzling the audience with his hysterical characterization of Indian detective Wise Owl on F Troop, while surprising his fans with a serious, dramatic role as a sheepfarmer in an episode of The Big Valley. When once discussing the concept of the “Adult Western”, Berle quipped, ["That's] where the hero still kisses his horse at the end, only now he worries about it.”

Wildest Westerns Magazine Awards!

Western film and television shows helped shape the moral values of many people in this country. Children grew up watching Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger, and many other heroes of the silver screen following the "Code of the West." The battle of wrong vs. right was the theme of virtually every Western movie and television show, and the right always prevailed.

Wildest Westerns is a Western magazine that is dedicated to revisiting those "thrilling tales of yesteryear" in the articles, interviews, reviews, and photos on our magazine pages. Some of America's most respected and remembered heroes and villains came from these Western genres. It is our hope that this Western magazine will awaken the memories in your heart, and also help bring to light the values of the Western to those who didn't have the benefit of knowing these wonderful heroes and villains. We will always remember them, and would like to say "Thank You" to all the actors, actresses, directors, producers, studios, and all the unsung heroes behind the scenes that brought us the Western.
