After its successful debut, this Cable Ace - nominee for
Best Dramatic Series returns with all-new through-provoking tales from the Wild
West
Set in the 1870's, this mystical western anthology series
continues to explore the eerie legend of an ominous and curiously jinxed
six-shooter - a dead man's gun - which grants unforeseen powers to all who
possess it, but with dangerous results.
Whoever has the misfortune of possessing the gun eventually
comes to grief as the power and authority of owning the weapon mysteriously
alters their personalities and character, and transforms their lives forever.
At the conclusion of each episode, the pistol packed with
poison lies in wait for its next unwitting victim and leaves behind its legacy
with the lesson that "you reap what you sow".
Referred to by critics as "a cross between Bonanza and The
Twilight Zone," DEAD MAN’S GUN attracts the industry's most talented performers
including: Michael Moriarty (Courage Under Fire, Pale Rider, Law & Order);
JoBeth Williams (Jungle2Jungle, The Client, Poltergeist); Ed Asner, winner of 7
Emmy Awards for his work on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Lou Grant, and the
acclaimed mini-series Roots and Rich Man, Poor Man); and Emmy winners John
Ritter (Slingblade, Three's Company) and Henry Winkler, best known for his
comedic role of "The Fonz" on television’s long running series Happy Days. In
addition to his guest performance, Winkler is executive producer of the series.
