3/13/2026 I still watch the Virginian and I´m 74 years old. Love the show and it saddens my heart loosing James and the crew.

A fan forever, my teenage crush..blessings

I watched him as a child and now I watch the reruns. I must admit that I love him as much now as when I was young. He was such a great person. After researching I was so glad he found the person he needed to spend the rest of his life with. I know he is looking down from above enjoying all of the people remembering him.

I've always loved his acting. RIP, pardner...

I watch reruns of the Virginian. I grew up on it! It´s the best western show ever made. James Drury played his character probably like he was in real life life. The Virginian Forever lives on!

I watched the Virginian when I was a little girl. I thought he was the best looking man in the world. I saw him @ the Pinecone Festival in Livingston.

I watched The Virginian every night just about and I'm 69 years old and it's 2026, I love a good Western and the Virginian is one of my favorites and he's one of my favorite Stars

Watched The Virginian as a child and can't get enough of this show as a senior citizen. Love love love cowboy movies starring James Drury. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to television.
