He devises a job that is sure suicide for the boyfriend, but changes his mind at the last minute, and rides off into the sunset without the senorita, only with the side kicks. But, the lady already has a boy friend whom she prefers to Cisco (if you can believe it). Sound familiar? Naturally Cisco falls in love at once and takes care of the baddies. Escaping with his two sidekicks he just chances to meet an attractive senorita whose father has been cheated by unscrupulous land grabbers. If you've ever been a kid or you are a kid at heart,you will enjoy this show.Warner Baxter's second outing as 'Cisco' finds him barely escaping death before a firing squad. I read that this was the first or one of the first tv shows to be in color,which was a pretty big deal at the time. Things like this,for example:īottom line,the 2 main characters work together well and they are silly/funny in their own right. The ''trouble with English'' trope is played like a fiddle,I suspect it is a constant throughout the series. All along,you get the idea that the actors are having fun doing the show,and they know some of it is a bit silly. However,I found the show to be very charming,you cannot help but chuckle throughout the whole show,sometimes with the show and sometimes at the show. If you are looking for rock-solid logic and perfect continuity you will indeed be disappointed at times.Īnd yes,it is chock-full of cliches and old tropes,corny-ness and such. I am now just beginning to realize how darn many western-themed tv shows were on tv in the 50's through the 70's,this was one of a very many. The closest association I had with the show was liking the song 'Cisco Kid' by WAR in the 70's.įrom what I saw just in this episode,I'd say it is a decent entertaining show.
