At best I could only give "The Deputy" (1959-1961) an average, 5-star rating - 'Cause I found that this TV series was pretty mediocre viewing (for the most part).
About the only time that I thought that "The Deputy" actually showed any real promise was when actor, Henry Fonda was not physically present in the story.
Yeah. I thought that Fonda (as Marshal Simon Fry) was about as drab and dreary as you could ever possibly imagine an actor to be (in a pivotal role).
In fact - I'd actually go so far as to say that Fonda's stale and tired performance pretty much ruined my enjoyment of this TV Western in a really big way. Yep. It sure did.
