I watched The Young Riders when it first aired on Thursday nights at 8pm. I was 15 and my best friend, who rode horses, would rave about this new western on TV. On her suggestion, I decided to check it out. I was hooked in one episode! The show had such an impact on me; in some weird way, I think it really helped me to grow up into a better/stronger person than I was! Now, 15 years later, as an adult, I just got the DVD of Season 1 for Christmas. I thought I might be embarrassed by my earlier obsession, but I was wrong! I fell in love with the show all over again! There is just some special quality to the characters and their relationships to one another that really sets this show apart. I am really hoping Seasons 2 and 3 get released on DVD. And another thing that hasn't changed: Gregg/Buck is still my favorite character and the hottest/most sensitive rider!
