"The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters" is a 1960s television program based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name by Robert Lewis Taylor. The show was produced by MGM Television.
The television series
The short-lived TV series (ABC, 1963-1964) was considered to be a good western aimed at young baby boomers, especially boys. It is remembered for its haunting theme music and for breakthrough performances from the then 12-year-old Kurt Russell in the role of Jaimie and Charles Bronson in the role of Linc, a stubborn wagonmaster. Although it started out with an ensemble cast, which included Dan O'Herlihy in the role of Jaimie's father, Sardius "Doc" McPheeters, by the end of the run it largely reduced to just the characters of Jaimie and Linc on a recurring basis. The character actress Donna Anderson played Jenny, the young pioneer woman who befriends Jaimie during the perilous journey west.
For several episodes, The Osmonds were cast as the singing sons of the Kissel family.
Movie
After the series was canceled, Kurt Russell and Charles Bronson reprised their roles of Jaimie McPheeters and Linc Murdock in the 1964 made-for-TV movie called "The Guns of Diablo".
