=== Provides Examples Of: ===
* [[Adventure Towns]]
* [[Actor Existence Failure]]: Ward Bond unexpectedly died of a heart attack in 1961, necessitating a change to John [[Mc Intyre]]McIntyre as the new lead. Interestingly, no episode actually deals with Maj. Adams' (Bond's character) leaving/retiring/dying, and so the next episode is [[Mc Intyre]]McIntyre's character taking over from a tyrranical replacement played by [[Lee Marvin]].
* [[Fair for Its Day]]: While still painting the settlers as mostly heroic people taming a wilderness, the show did not generally trade in "savage scalping redskin" depictions of Indians, and most characters were written as real people and not as national/ethnic stereotypes.
* [[Instrumental Theme Tune]]
