Frontier episode: James Griffith (I.), Peter Votrian and Walter Coy eye Lee Ericson. Frontier Frontier, one of several new “adult” Western series, eschews the exploits of gun-toting marshals and other pop¬ ular heroes to concentrate on the more ordinary people who helped settle the West. The result is an absorbing tele¬ film show, well worth tuning in. Although Frontier stresses human emotions and psychology, rather than gun duels and “they-went-thataway” chases, it doesn’t lack for action. The initial episode, for example, told of a village handyman who was falsely publicized as a vicious gunman by an imaginative newspaper reporter. While the script generated considerable sus¬ pense when the psuedo-killer finally challenged a legitimate gimslinger, the writers also tried to delve into the handyman’s mind, to explain why he took his newspaper clippings seriously. Other scripts have deeilt with a bit¬ ter woman who hired a gunman to kill her husband’s slayer, and with the sons of a cattleman and sheep- herder who engineered the settlement of their father’s long-time feud. Each script is a complete story, reportedly based on fact, and the characters vary from week to week. The only perma¬ nent actor is Walter Coy, who fre¬ quently stars but more often is heard only as an off-screen narrator. Frontier is skilfully produced by Worthington (Tony) Miner, who also supervises Medic. His deft touch is clearly discernible. The actors are good and the scripts tautly written. The sets, costumes and other pro¬ duction trappings have been uniform¬ ly excellent. 20
