Barber Above is the proper spelling when the subject of Howard McNear comes up! Ya know, the more series I listen to, the more good old Floyd shows up! I just heard Floyd in an Escape episode. Heyyy Aandeeee. If you listen carefully you can hear a few more famous voices, for instance, Parley Baer--who played the Mayor in The Andy Griffith Show--also appears in several episodes.
William Conrad appears occasionally, too. He is perhaps best known to television viewers as Cannon, but also seen in Jake and the Fat Man, and he had a small stint in the 80s as Nero Wolfe. Of course, to classic radio buffs he is probably best known as Marshall Matt Dillon in the radio version of Gunsmoke. I am so glad that James Stewart and Frank Burt came together to bring us this show.
Unfortunately, it came at a time when sponsors had turned to investing less in radio and more in television. But we are fortunate that the recordings survive.

I suggest the uptight critics choose other venues for entertainment and stop listening to these programs. We fans of the laid back storyteller version of the west, come here to relax and feel the family atmosphere of being around a campfire.
The stories are fun, creative and even clever. They strive to teach something in each episode. Good old fashioned radio. I love it.

What I didn't understand at the time was how great writing and great acting can totally immerse you in a story. I have listened to several episodes of The Six Shooter and each time have been totally immersed in the story and able to visualize all of the action with ease.
It would be hard to find a radio series that equals this in quality, although Gunsmoke comes close. Reviewer: binyamendel - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - January 14, Subject: Six Shooter worth SIX stars - A True "Mother of Pearl" This series is a gem - crafted as beautifully as that mother-of-pearl handle!
I am totally charmed,thrilled, engaged and fully entertained by the slow talking, wise and witty character portrayed by that outstanding straight, believable and lovable film star Jimmy Stewart. His very unique rather high pitched and purely early American Western voice sounds like the real thing: a lonely but beloved hard working, virtuous and strong man of courage, wisdom, dignity and plain likeability.
The timeless scripts by Mr. Burt are filed with wonderful character development, sometimes surprising plots,irony, humor and a nice dose of insight into basic human nature.
I love this series so much that I joined Archive. As others here have lamented it's a real shame that a lot more episodes were not created. For my money the Six Shooter represents the highest quality ever achieved during the golden age of the sorely missed and virtually extinct medium of Old Time Radio drama - For the most part today's young audiences wouldn't even be willing to give these old chestnuts the time of day.
Alas, they have no idea about the treasures and pleasures they are missing. Kudos and great appreciation to Archive. I wonder if someone could contact me at binyamendel gmail. Reviewer: CZ10 - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - March 8, Subject: One of my favs I just glanced at the photo from the show. Odd that they show JS with a rifle instead of the gun that defines the show. Reviewer: Ampico - favorite favorite favorite favorite favorite - January 5, Subject: A Really Good Show The Six Shooter's writers never tried to do more than could be done in half an hour with time out for commercials etc.
Some of the scripts approach Gunsmoke. Obviously, I like it quite a lot. Reviewer: Alonzo Church - favorite favorite favorite favorite - January 5, Subject: Variable Big Star Series This show was written to exploit and bolster the carefully established Jimmy Stewart persona, not deconstruct it a la Hitchcock, or dwell in its dark side, a la Anthony Mann.
Folks coming to this show from a viewing of Vertigo or Bend of the River are going to be disapointed. Stewart is in full gosh, aw shucks stammer throughout this series, and we almost never see his capacity for anger in these shows. That said, a number of thse shows make good use of their big star, and this show dares to go offbeat in directions that other adult westerns dare not tread. Yes sir, JS has to take on girls tryin to marry him, a little boy who has turned away from Christmas, a Cinderella story, a production of Hamlet, and a maiden aunt who wants to keep house for him.
Most of this is handled rather gently, and things can get bland from time to time. But, fortunately, JS is playing someone who is good with a gun, and a few of the episodes get dark. In these cases, the mood isn't noir bleakness, but a leisurely melancholy that is effective in its own way.
The best episode involves a woman who insists her husband is alive, even though he was reported dead in an indian war. That episode resembles the best of Gunsmoke, and even sees JS finally losing his temper in a way enthusiasts of the Anthony Mann westerns will recognize. S2, Ep8. Graves embraces his dark side; Michael must prove his loyalty; Gina faces judgement. S2, Ep9. Tracking Michael and the Prince as they go deeper into hiding, the team finds itself surrounded by the enemy.
