I will fess up, two of my favorites as a youngster were The Adventures of Superman (with the late George Reeves as The Man of Steel and Clark Kent) and Have Gun Will Travel (aka Paladin) starring the late Richard Boone as Wire Paladin.
All Paladin fans knew the shows theme song by heart if I recall.
"Ballad of Paladin"
Performed by Johnny Western.
Have Gun Will Travel reads the card of a man.
A knight without armor in a savage land.
His fast gun for hire head's the calling wind.
A soldier of fotune is the man called Paladin.
Paladin, Paladin Where do you roam?
Paladin, Paladin, Far, far from home.
He travels on to wherever he must;
A chess knight of silver is his badge of trust.
There are campfire legends that the plainsmen spin
Of the man with the gun,
of the man called Pa-l-l-l-l-a-din
Ah the memories of a mispent TV addicted childhood.
