==Series==
After several years of total saturation on the networks, many western series began to lose popularity with viewing audiences, ''Shotgun Slade'' had three characteristics that made it unique. The first was Slade's profession. Instead being a marshal, sheriff or wandering gunfighter, Slade was a private detective, hired by individuals to track down criminals, return stolen money, or perform other similar duties. This was obviously influenced by the growing popularity of television private eyes such as ''Peter Gunn'', ''Richard Diamond, Private Detective'', ''77 Sunset Strip'', and ''Hawaiian Eye''.
Another quirk was Slade's weapon of choice. Instead of packing a six gun, Slade carried a combination shotgun that has an upper and lower barrel. The lower barrel fired a 12-gauge shotgun shell, while the top barrel fired a .32 caliber rifle bullet. The idea was that this weapon gave Slade the ability to fire at close and distant targets with the same amount of accuracy. Several western television shows were known for featuring distinctive weapons, such as those on shows like ''The Rifleman'', ''The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp'', ''Bat Masterson'', ''Wanted: Dead or Alive'', ''Johnny Ringo'', and ''The Rebel'', but Slade's shotgun stood out even among the weapons of those other shows. Despite the quirks and idiosyncrasies of the series, ''Shotgun Slade'' lasted for only two seasons.
