Not sure what to say?

I have all of the episodes of the Life & Legend of Wyatt Earp on prime video. Every year I go through every episode and every season until I have watched all 229 episodes. My 2 favorite characters without a doubt was Wyatt Earp & Shotgun Gibbs and of course Roscoe his Mule. Both of them were wholesome characters that stood out to me as a child. I am 72 years old and I miss the clean wholesome movies like the ones that aired back 50s and 60s. Hugh O´Brian will certainly be missed. Tbe last...

Hugh Obrian was the best Wyatt Earp I've ever seen. He was truly authentic and original in his depiction of the great Wyatt Earp.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I pray that you and your family will have God's perfect peace and that God will keep all the fun memories of the late great Mr. Hugh OBrian God bless and keep you all heart in perfect peace be blessed

I met Mr O´Brian at a film festival in olive branch Mississippi in 2012 and listened to him in a Question and answer session extremely nice man I´m grateful to have met hero I grew up with will be greatly missed

I was binge watching Wyatt Earp this evening, and I wasn't born until 1965. Hugh O'Brian owned the role. He will always be the one and only beloved cowboy in my heart. They don't make television like that anymore or actor's, it's a lost art. God has called them all home at our expense. My condolences to the family. The world has truly lost a beautiful soul. My heart breaks for you.

Just watched a rerun of the Virginian which Hugh was in. Wonderful job he did in that episode. Son of a man that was wrongfully hung.

Watching Wyatt Erp...thank you for great acting and great movies....Happy Trails

Thank you sir for great wholesome entertainment..
