Series Description:
This short-lived western of only 16 shows appeared on CBS early in 1958, starring Sam Buffington as Luke Slughter. William N. Robson,
known from his work with such series as ESCAPE, SUSPENSE and THE CBS RADIO WORKSHOP, directed.
Luke is a cattle ranch owner in the old west, a tough but honest man. Like the other CBS radio westerns, HAVE GUN, WILL TRAVEL or FRONTIER GENTLEMAN, this one had plenty of action, the productions were well done and well acted. LUKE SLAUGHTER was cut short, like a lot of other radio shows, by the steady pressure from TV.
Log Comments:
This show didn't have show titles as part of the lead-in, so there is some variation in titles. |
