"Hee Haw", of course! I have the note verifying that right here next to my heart...heart...heart...heart! (Slim's fans know EXACTLY where his heart is!)
A shame about how he (and his wife?) died, murdered for money they didn't even have.
The shows you are talking about were originally produced for prime time. They shot something like 46 episodes of "The Rifleman" for that first season! But the combination of ratings success and low budgets made TV westerns irresistible for TV producers in the Fifties and Sixties and early Seventies.

Oh my God! I just realized I had confused beloved country comedian Stringbean with nuclear warhead rider Slim Pickens! They even looked completely different!
Oh well....

  I could not remember which was which either. Slim Pickens has played in way more movies than I could have imagined. It was indeed "Stringbean" who I had in mind.
