  • The Oregon Trail is a 13-episode NBC western television series starring Rod Taylor as the widower Evan Thorpe, who leaves his Illinois farm in 1842 to take the Oregon Trail to the Pacific Northwest. The show also starred Andrew Stevens, Tony Becker, and Gina Marie Smika as Thorpe's children. Darleen Carr starred as Margaret Devlin, one of the passengers on the wagon train, and Charles Napier portrayed Luther Sprague, a frontier scout recruited by Thorpe. Of the thirteen episodes produced, only six were aired: "Hard Ride Home and the Last Game", September 21 "The Waterhole", September 28 "Trapper's Rendezvous", October 12 "The Army Deserter", October 19 "Hannah's Girl", October 26 (Stella Stevens, mother of Andrew Stevens, as Hannah Morgan) "The Scarlet Ribbon", November 30 . The following are the seven unaired episodes: "The Race" "The Gold Dust Queen" "The Man Who Wouldn't Die" "Return of the Baby" (again Mills, Shatner, and Bixby) "Evan's Vendetta" (William Smith, previously of the NBC western series Laredo) "Suffer the Children" "Wagon Race". The series followed another western-themed program, The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams on the NBC Wednesday schedule. It aired at 9 p.m. Eastern opposite the CBS Wednesday Night Movie and ABC's detective series, Charlie's Angels. Michael Gleason was the executive producer; Richard Collins, the supervising producer; Carl Vitale, the producer for NBC Universal Television. Bill Bixby also directed two episodes. The series pilot aired on January 10, 1976. In 1979-1980, CBS ran a 13-week miniseries remarkably similar to The Oregon Trail. The Chisholms starred Robert Preston, Rosemary Harris, and Ben Murphy as pioneers headed by wagon train from Virginia to California in the 1840s.
