'''''Maverick''''' is a [[Western]] TV series that ran from 1957 to 1962. It starred James Garner as Bret Maverick, a gambler and conman travelling around the Old West seeking a quick buck and (more or less reluctantly) helping the helpless.
 
Later episodes introduced other members of the Maverick clan: brother Bart (Jack Kelly), English cousin Beau (Roger Moore), another brother, Brent (Robert Colbert), and, in one episode, father Pappy and uncle Bently (Garner and Kelly again).
