''Young Maverick'' is a 1979 television series that unsuccessfully attempted to recapture some of the magic of the highly successful 1957 series ''Maverick'', which had starred James Garner as roving gambler Bret Maverick. Charles Frank played Ben Maverick, the son of Bret's first cousin Beau Maverick, making him Bret's first cousin once removed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Young Maverick Episodes on CBS )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Clancy (episode 1) )〕 Frank's real-life wife Susan Blanchard played his girlfriend Nell, while John Dehner (who appeared in ''Mavericks "Shady Deal At Sunny Acres") appeared as a frontier marshal who had arrested Ben's father Beau decades before. The series was cancelled by CBS after only six hour-long episodes had been shown, leaving two which were never aired on the network.〔Ed Robertson, ''Maverick: Legend Of The West'', p. 173, Pomegranate Press, Ltd., ISBN 0-938817-35-3〕 All eight episodes were screened later that year on BBC1 in the UK. The 1978 TV-movie ''The New Maverick'', featuring Garner as Bret, Frank as Ben, Jack Kelly as Bret's brother Bart Maverick, and Blanchard as Nell, served as the pilot for the series. (Garner appeared briefly in the first regular episode of ''Young Maverick'', "Clancy," making him the only person to appear in all three series.) Among the actors appearing on the series were Howard Duff, John McIntire, James Woods, Donna Mills (all in "Dead Man's Hand," parts 1 and 2), J. Pat O'Malley ("A Fistful Of Oats"), Morgan Fairchild, John Hillerman (both "Makin' Tracks") and Harry Dean Stanton. Roger Moore, who played Beau Maverick (Ben's father) in the original series, never appeared in ''Young Maverick''. Despite the title, Frank was three years older than Garner had been at the launch of the original series. ==Cast== *Charles Frank as Ben Maverick *Susan Blanchard as Nell McGarrahan *John Dehner as Marshall Edge Troy 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Young Maverick」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
