Two other western series similarly focused on detectives. These programs, both syndicated, were ''Pony Express,'' which stars Grant Sullivan (1924-2011) as detective Brett Clark, which aired in the 1959-1960 season to coincide with the centennial of the [[Pony Express]]. Earlier, from 1954 to 1955, Jim Davis (1909-1981) had starred as railroad investigator Matt Clark in the syndicated ''Stories of the Century.'' Davis and Robertson each voiced the narration for their respective series. Robertson and Davis later landed roles in the 1980's prime-time soap operas, ''Dynasty'' and ''Dallas.''

Robertson's soothing narration was especially essential to the success of the series, but the narrations ended with the final season. He voiced a self-reliant, traditional, and wholesome message in his narrations, always landing on the side of truth and justice. In the final season, the narrations were dropped.
