have gun will travel

Summary: Have Gun Will Travel radio show broadcast 106 episodes on CBS between November 23, 1958, and November 22, 1960. During the fifties, many radio programs made the transition to the ever-growing medium called television. Some more successful than others. John Dehner was cast as Paladin. Dehner was the same man who many years before, originally didn't want to play Matt Dillon because he didn't want to be typecast in a western. The first thirty-some radio scripts were adaptations from the television series. After more than twenty episodes, they realized the show was not as successful for radio as it was for television. Some changes needed to be made, so the radio productions would differ from the television. After two years and 106 broadcasts, Have Gun Will Travel slowly faded away. John Dehner died on February 4, 1992, in Santa Barbara, California, from complications of emphysema and diabetes. He was 76.
