Rawhide Crossing at White Feather (1959–1965) Online

A rattler spooks trail-guide Jonas who falls over a cliff as does Rowdy trying to rescue him. Jonas' son Aaron throws a rope to save Rowdy, not his father, because Jonas has become an embarrassing slacker. Jonas fakes injuries from the fall to weasel out of leading the herd across a dangerous river, which Rowdy dares to cross, rather than venture a pothole-ridden mountain pass urged by Jonas. When Rowdy finds a blotto Jonas malingering with liquor stashed under his bedroll, he fires both father and son. Back home Aaron eloquently prophesies that Rowdy will need them to forge the river quicksand. Jonas bolts onto a bender, proving he's neither saint, nor Nephite, selling a third of Rowdy's herd to a conman. Childless Rowdy's Oedipal abandonment issues surface via his brotherly concern over Jonas' motherless son when Rowdy describes his own history to Aaron which is similar. Aaron tries to find a crossing but has to be rescued from quicksand while the Sheriff arrives wanting one third ...

This is the last episode of Rawhide, ingloriously canceled mid-season. The ratings had been suffering for some time, but getting rid of Gil Favor, Pete Nolan, Mushy, and the rest didn't help.

But the mass firing did allow Clint Eastwood to finally develop his character, Rowdy Yates. For the preceding seven seasons, Yates was, far too often, little more than an impulsive, not-too bright foil for Favor's sharp tongue. Beginning with the first episode of season 8, we can see the calculating, hard-bitten, flinty-eyed man start to emerge. I particularly recommend Six Weeks to Bent Fork (1965) as classic Eastwood, but this one's not a bad way to go out.

Yates and his crew never did finish that last cattle drive, but it did signal a new beginning in Eastwood's life.

Canceled in the middle of its 8th season the trail drive doesn't make it to its final destination in this season of Rawhide. Clint Eastwood of course went to Europe for spaghetti westerns, fame and fortune.

In this episode Clint hires on Albert Dekker as a trail guide to help them ford a dangerous river that he knows all about as he has lived by or near it all his life.

But Dekker is a sodden irresolute drunk and Eastwood has to can him as well as his son Johnny Crawford. Father and son have a lot of issues that come out and Clint has some father issues as well as his dad was a whole lot like Dekker.

Rawhide ended with this story. For all of it Johnny Crawford went around in torn pants and barefoot. When he got paid I hope he invested some new pants and some boots.
