    At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

    This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

    The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

    As a lifelong fan of Western movies an TV shows,I have enjoyed re-watching this show METV, even with the commercials! Robert Culp created not only a unique Western hero like none before, or since, but also in the choice of weapon, a 1875 Smith & Wesson Schofield break-top revolver, which I was surprised none of the previous reviewers picked up on or mentioned.While the Schofield was quite a popular handgun in the old west, and may even have been used by General Custer, it seldom shows up in the thousands of Western films over the years.That said, this show is worth watching if only to see Robert Culp bring a interesting take on a Western character. Others have already commented on that, to which I only agree.The only negative comment I would make of something was prevalent to ALL the TV Westerns of that era: the use of the obvious FAKE sound stage street, a real bummer!!Robert Culp was one of a kind, he will always be missed.

    Trackdown, Wanted Dead or Alive, Gunsmoke, and Have Gun, Will Travel were my favorite television westerns during the 1950s. I have the DVDs of the last three but can no record of Trackdown being available? Hoby Gillman is as an important part of my memory as Josh Randall, Matt Dillon, and Paladin. I remember being glued in front of the television set on Saturday night with my family all around, turning the rabbit ears in JUST the right direction to get the least amount of "snow". A bowl full of popcorn and a bottle of Dr.Pepper by my side, I rode the range with all of my idols. Through the miracle of cable and a DVD player I can experience this feeling once again and it's wonderful! Trackdown was on for three seasons, as I recall. Does anyone know if it's available?

    Robert Culp is the most unique actor I've ever seen. He's one of the most believable characters--no matter what he portrays, from Trackdown to I Spy... Rarely does one see an actor with such natural finesse and brillance.

    An obvious vehicle for Culp, "Trackdown" was on the cutting edge of the 'adult' western. Culp's character, Hoby Gilman comes off as a hip Texas Ranger-kind of a cross between Sunset Strips Kooky, and Dragnet's Joe Friday! By today's standards, routine, at the time it was must viewing.
