"The Westerner" is a 1960 Four Star Television Western series on NBC created by Sam Peckinpah. The series stars Brian Keith as Dave Blassingame and features John Dehner as semi-regular Burgundy Smith. The critically acclaimed show ran for only thirteen episodes, one of which, "Line Camp," was the basis for the 1968 Charlton Heston film "Will Penny".
The pilot for "The Westerner" appeared on CBS's Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theater. The musical score was largely the work of Four Star's Herschel Burke Gilbert. For rerun syndication, it was grouped with three other short-lived Western series from the same company, "Black Saddle" starring Peter Breck, "Johnny Ringo" starring Don Durant, and "Law of the Plainsman" starring Michael Ansara, under the umbrella title "The Westerners", bracketed with hosting sequences featuring Keenan Wynn.
