Temple Houston (TV series)

''Temple Houston'' is a 1963–1964 NBC television series considered "the first attempt ... to produce an hour-long western series with the main character being an attorney in the formal sense."〔Nevins, Frances M. "Westerns". ''Prime Time Law: Fictional Television as Legal Narrative''. Robert M. Jarvis and Paul R. Joseph, Editors. Carolina Academic Press. 1998. p. 212-213〕 ''Temple Houston'' was the only program which Jack Webb sold to a network during his ten months as the head of production at Warner Bros. Television.〔(Jack Webb at The Museum of Broadcast Communications )〕 It was also the lone series in which actor Jeffrey Hunter played a regular part.〔(Jeffrey Hunter's Notable Television Appearances )〕 The series' supporting cast features Jack Elam and Chubby Johnson.
==Overview==

''Temple Houston'' is based loosely on the career of the real-life circuit-riding lawyer Temple Lea Houston (1860–1905), son of the more famous Sam Houston. Little, however, binds all the episodes together under a common framework. The series variously cast the characters and situations in both an overtly humorous and a deadly serious light. Writer Francis M. Nevin asserts of the first episode entitled "The Twisted Rope": "Clearly, the concept here is ''Perry Mason'' out West", going so far as to note that Temple Houston's court opponent "apes Hamilton Burger by accusing Houston of 'prolonging this trial with a lot of dramatic nonsense'".〔 Later episodes turned Houston into more of a detective than a lawyer. Over the course of the series, the bulk of the narrative sees Houston actually gathering evidence, rather than trying cases. In the end, the series largely eschewed criminal law in favor of overtly humorous plots, such as in the episode "The Law and Big Annie", in which Houston uses his legal expertise to help a friend decide what to do after he inherits an elephant.〔
The producers tried to avoid any storylines that would embarrass the two surviving children of Temple Houston who were still living when the series aired.〔Production memo, ''Temple Houston'' files, Warner Bros. Archives, Cinema-Television Library, University of Southern California. The producers did not consult with Houston's family about the series, other than to inquire if any direct descendants were still living. Frank X. Tolbert, "Temple Houston's Family Speaks Up," ''Dallas Morning News'', August 25, 1963, sec. 1, p. 23〕

Jeffrey Hunter was one of the prettiest people that ever was put on the screen. God, he was gorgeous. -- Ruta Lee, guest star on ''Temple Houston'' in "Enough Rope"
Things didn't go right for him, and they should have, because if anybody deserved to be a big star, it was Jeffrey Hunter. -- Van Williams, Hunter's close friend
