Wrangler: Encounter At Elephant Butte

WranglerThe sixth episode of the western series Wrangler is scheduled to air on NBC in the United States, starring Jason Evers as Pitcairn. Though TV Guide listings at the time indicate the episode was to air on this date, it is pre-empted for unknown reasons; as only an incomplete worktape exists in the UCLA archives, it’s possible that the reason for the delay was failure to complete the episode on time, possibly as a result of the series’ unprecedented method of shooting and editing on the then-very-new medium of videotape. Wrangler is produced by future Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, who also created this series, his first to get past the pilot stage; Roddenberry also wrote the episode (as indicated by the archived scripts), which would have been credited on screen to the pseudonym of “Leon Edward”. Though 1960 TV listings indicated that this episode was rescheduled for the following week, there is significant evidence that this episode was never actually broadcast, replaced by another episode which does exist archivally in finished form.

Mary Murphy and Frank Silvera guest star in an episode written by future Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, who also created this series, his first to get past the pilot stage. Despite contemporary TV listings showing that a previous episode of Wrangler, Encounter At Elephant Butte, was postponed to this date, there is significant evidence that this episode aired instead, including existence of a complete copy of the episode containing a handoff from series star Jason Evers to musician “Tennessee” Ernie Ford, whose prime-time variety show, The Ford Show, had briefly been replaced by Wrangler as a summer replacement series, affording Ford and his show’s crew time for a break. Wrangler, the first western shot and edited on videotape using facilities at Los Angeles TV station KTLA, is never repeated again, though at least partial copies of each episode remain archived at UCLA, thanks to KTLA donating a large amount of vintage videotapes to the school’s library for archival preservation.
