One disjointed episode
by bkoganbing2020-11-08
3/10

"One of the circus performers comes down with food poisoning and Chill Wills discovers the food they have is tainted. There's a buffalo herd not to far but not to near either. There are some buffalo hunters around for a price and John Derek and Richard Jaeckel hire and join them. A lot of familiar folks are in this cast like Dan Duryea, Dick York, Frank DeKova and Michael Pate are in the cast. But this story is so disjointed that the whole thing comes up a cropper. So far the worst episode I've seen from Frontier Circus...."
