I just stared watching Big Valley on insp. I always liked this show even though it was called Bonanza in skirts. Maybe "the trail petered out" was on a note that Victoria found in her Jeans pocket or maybe in her leather jacket. (lol). As much as I think Dr. Quinn is much too Beth Sullivanish, Jane looked the part in her long hair and big skirts. " Star power" was Barbara saying "I'm not wearing that anymore". In came the 60's do and the black leather!!! adamseve

A's E: While IN SEARCH OF... Victoria Barkley and black leather I found this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058791/reviews = "Was there ever a bluer shirt than Victoria Barkley's? Hair more golden than Audra's? Leather more black than Nick's? Watching reruns of "Gunsmoke" and "Bonanza", they really look like dusty, brown, more authentic (especially with "Gunsmoke") presentations. "BV" started out that way, but soon progressed into an almost surreal blend of authentic locales mixed with '60's styles and colors. How else to describe Lee Majors' sideburns, the clean lines of the womens' riding gear or the ladies' false eyelashes? But I wouldn't change any of it for the world. The Barkleys' world is a world I'd want to live in. Everything is beautiful and they stand for truth, justice and the American way! " from: 11 July 2002

I agree. Hell on wheels was about the making of the trans country rail. It was really dirty and nasty and probably more authentic. Not on my dream list or many others and probably why I havn't seen a seacond season. Deadwwod was also like that but did have a bigger audience. adamseve

You're absolutely right! I never even made it through a single episode.
