F TROOP was ostensibly a western sitcom but was filled with anarchist, MAD-style humor, all built around the antics at Fort Courage and highlighted by the unofficial comedy teaming of once and future tough guy actor Forrest Tucker with former Vaudevillian and cartoon voice actor Larry Storch. The series itself ran for 2 seasons beginning in 1965. The first two issues of the comic book series came out in late '66.

I remember this show very well and was excited to meet the stars when they had a personal appearance one year at the Arkansas State Fair!
ReplyDeletethe Indians were cool capitalists ["we not attack during end-of-month sale"], Storch was a versatile comic impressionist playing his own Russian French and Mexican cousins, and then... there was Wrangler Jane!! YOWZA!
ReplyDeleteGreat show!
