The Magnificent Seven was a short-lived Western Action-Adventure that ran on CBS from 1998-1999. Like its film namesake (and origin in ''[[The Seven Samurai]]''), it was a story about seven unlikely men (and ultimately heroes) who band together to save a unprotected town (in this case, a isolated village made up of freed slaves and displaced American Indians) who end up sticking around to protect the local town. Unlike the movie, [[Spared by the Adaptation|all seven of the main characters survive the pilot episode]] and are joined by various townspeople for further adventures. |
