Western comedy drama series. Wanted outlaws Jed Curry and Hannibal Heyes
are desperate to go straight, they are granted an amnesty by the Governor of Kansas but only if
they can stay out of trouble for a whole year, and the deal has to remain secret. The pair are forced
to take aliases, Curry as Thaddeus Jones and Heyes as Joshua Smith, as they try their best to
keep out of trouble for a year. Pete Duel who played Hannibal Heyes committed suicide halfway
through the series run apparently unable to cope with the success of the series. The series, however,
carried on with Duel simply being replaced by Roger Davis who in the first season voiced the opening
narration which explained the premise behind the series, Ralph Story took over as the narrator for
the years 1972-73.
