JAMES DRURY (The Virginian) and the Virginian Cast Compiled Q&A at Cowboy Way Jubilee, Ardmore, OK, May 2019. James Drury, Roberta Shore, Gary Clarke, Randy Boone www.thevirginian.net
I am catching up on the reruns right now. I am old enough to have sat in front of my TV most Wednesday nights for nine seasons. The show has lost nothing over time. In fact it only shines brighter when stacked up against some of the tripe on TV today.
R. I. P.. James Drury.. The Last TV Show - Western Star from my Childhood in Germany passed away... 😢 Saddle up, Virginian.. Trampas is waiting for you. 🤠
Karim Aakef yeah. Doug McClure and James Drury’s horse was probably waiting for him at the ranch in the Sky. James Drury owned and loved the horse that he used in the show
JAMES DRURY is a very Amiable Man...I love being around Him whenever possible. I also loved (Steve Forest,The Big Valley) RIP Peter Graves. James used to be in The Thanksgiving Parade( Houston)...My deceased Dad & I used to watch The Virginian...A very great show to watch. RIP MRS. DRURY.
Jim, I Will Never Forget Our Good Times Together. I Thank You For Our Friendship And Will Be Looking For You When I get To The Otherside.R.I.P. Old Friend ...
Great to see most everybody again. Really! A pity the Grainger siblings couldn't be there --- Sara and Don. Now I -- quite the fan -- will offer a critique of these 15 minutes. Without having a good moderator with researched and informed and specific questions we end up deprived of hearing as much information as we'd really like; as we crave. I don't think I learned one thing in addition to what has been mentioned on other RU-vid presentations compiled over the past dozen or so years as well as the series' DVD bonus tracks. . . . BTW, what a thrill to be an attendee at The Autry for the 50th. And get a few one-on-one minutes with Jim when he came out to the compound's shaded front wall for a smoke break. Okay, here's the link to a nostalgic, fabulous, 3-minute montage of memorable scenes of memorable stars and memorable and some-forgotten guest stars; lovely music perfectly coordinated with a multitude of various scenes. It's titled: Fool Hearts (The Virginian, 1962-1971). ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5SGCO0ZqmVw.html For the Ardmore moderator, talent and audience -- to watch THAT before with those dozens of anecdote-inducing scenes -- why that would easily elicit 90 minutes -- like "The Virginian"'s running time -- of non-stop, original, fascinating, truthful, colorful anecdotes and individual or shared memories. Afterward the live and RU-vid audience would think "Wow, can you believe it? They were great. They had such wonderful things to say. And about so many different people, lots of episodes some I'd forgot." . . . Now that Jim's gone to his reward I wonder if in a 2022 or thereafter event about / including "The Virginian" talent, if David Hartman would be asked to participate and would he participate. FYI I inquired on another RU-vid thread tied into our shared, admired, beloved show what was the "bad blood" or "oil-and-water" between Drury and Hartman? Jim specified about Stewart Granger at the Autry event plus in his interview with author Paul Green for THE book. Perhaps he felt comfortable to specify since Granger was 'no longer with us.' Whatever; but not a peep about David. . . . . Personally I could watch David Hartman in every 43, one-hour episode of "The Bold Ones" wherein he played a doctor, opposite E.G. Marshall and John Saxon (a "V" guest star). However and quite unfortunately I CRINGE when David Sutton is on a "Virginian" episode -- ANY episode, including Sara's and John Saxon's love story, 'Vision of Blindness,' one of my favorites. IMO he just doesn't say "western" like everybody else.
I never thought l would watch another Western besides the Big Valley but just got hooked on the Virginian RIP James Drury yes he Peter Breck, Lee Majors, sure look good in there Jeans swag
I love the Virginian I watch it every single day and seen most of them before but I still watch them I would love to meet you all very much I think it would be the most exciting thing that would ever happen to me I love watching your show thank you for being there nice family morals wonderful
Mr. Drury, my Mom and myself watch 2 episodes every day even if we've seen them 2 or more times. I have a question that is just driving me nuts. In the series staring John McIntire, as the show is starting with the credits showing, Trampas is riding his horse with the rains in his left hand and holding a rope in his right hand that looks like he is holding on to something. Can you tell me what it is, please?
@@lukewarme9121 thanks for confirming that'd randy :) Although when I said who's after that I meant the end guy... robertat shore was the first one I recognised, especially being the only female main character :)
