Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Rhomboid Goatcabin (myuschen) I've be re-watching the series....and am simply amazed at X Brands. His skill with his knife is extraordinary. Yancy can flip Pahoo's knife back over his shoulder... and X Brands catches it amid spin and puts it into his shoulder sheath in one seemingly effortless move. AMAZING!!! Also his sign language seems to be very accurate.

SanteeFats I will admit up front that I am kind of old as I saw this series when it first aired. Considering that it was done in the late 50's it is excellent. Why it only lasted for three seasons is beyond me. I think it could work today. Jock Mahonney portrays Yancy Derringer, a suave, lady's man as well as it could be done. X Brand as the shotgun toting Indian sidekick who does not speak is great. I love how this series shows the action that occurs with out apology, a far cry from a lot of today's TV shows that hide or try to justify it instead of just letting it develop. The plots are pretty good and the episodes are well acted by almost every actor. This series is old time television at it's best. I own the entire set.

waldenpond88 Does anybody know if "Yancy Derringer" was actually based on a book or maybe an old New Orleans legend? I tried to find it in amazon.com, but was not successful. If anybody knows please tell me at waldenpond88@hotmail.com. Thanks!Loved the series when it was on German TV in 1967 and am very lucky that I could find it last fall online. It's as great as it was 42 years ago....some things fortunately never change :)!My favorite episodes are the ones with Beverly Garland playing river pirate Coco LaSalle, "The Belle from Boston" and the episodes about Yancy's family mansion Waverly like "Old Dixie".

webmaster-2147 When I watched Yancy Derringer as a 6 year old, the guns were especially fascinating. Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah had a big shotgun, maybe 10 gauge. Yancy had several tiny guns that were hidden in his clothes. One in his hat, one in his boot. He could be searched, but still pull a derringer out of his sleeve. X Brands, as Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah, had the biggest shotgun I have every seen. As I recall, it had a single barrel with a mighty power. If needed, Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah could blast the bad guys with such force, smoke, kick, and noise, that it was the grand finale to any fight!The derringers came in a variety of arrangements, with most of them having two barrels. But some may have had more than two. The smallest derringer had only one barrel. There was a trick derringer, if my memory as a boy serves me correctly. One trick derringer was up Yancy's sleeve on a spring-loaded mechanism. It had scissor shaped metal supports that would expand to full length on command of a gesture. The contraption would spring out of his sleeve into Yancy's hand into the right firing position. The gesture that triggered the spring to release was for Yancy to press his elbow against his side. One derringer was hidden in his belt buckle. Toy stores sold belts with hidden derringers after that show!Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah would carry his shotgun with him wherever he went, but with poise and dignity which seemed non-threatening. X Brands' dispassionate face would seldom display any emotion. He spoke slowly and deeply, with somber meaning that always was important. Pahoo-Ka-Ta-Wah was tall and strong. In a fight, I only remember his 8 gauge shotgun: as the ultimate weapon in any New Orleans brawl. It could knock down a wall!
