Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers is a television series broadcast in the United States by NBC during its 1956-57 season. In a period in which much of the programming on U.S. television consisted of Westerns, Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers could best be described as an "Eastern". It consisted of the adventures of a fictional regiment of the famed real-life cavalry of the British Indian Army. The leading characters were the 77th's officers: the commander, Colonel Standish (Patrick Whyte) and two of his lieutenants, William Storm (Warren Stevens) and Michael Rhodes (Phil Carey). Rhodes was portrayed as a Canadian, purportedly because the actor portraying him, a native of New Jersey, could not be coached to produce a credible English accent.

  • Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers est une série télévisée américaine en 26 épisodes. (fr)
  • 77º Lancieri del Bengala (Tales of the 77th Bengal Lancers) è una serie televisiva statunitense in 26 episodi andati in onda per la prima volta nel corso di una sola stagione dal 1956 al 1957 sulla rete NBC. In un periodo in cui nella televisione americana cominciavano ad andare di moda i serial western, 77° Lancieri del Bengala può essere considerato un "eastern". La serie, infatti, è ambientata in India. I protagonisti sono gli ufficiali: il comandante, colonnello Standish (Patrick Whyte), e due dei suoi luogotenenti, William Storm (Warren Stevens) e Michael Rhodes (Fil Carey). Il personaggio di Rhodes proviene dal Canada, presumibilmente perché l'attore che lo interpretava era nativo del New Jersey e non aveva un accento britannico credibile. Il luogo per le riprese fu Corriganville, ranch e set televisivo per riprese esterne dell'attore Ray "Crash" Corrigan, utilizzato di solito per film western, sito nella Simi Valley, nel sud della California.

George Archainbaud earned a nomination from the Directors Guild of America as well from the Emmys in 1957 for his direction of the episode "The Traitor," which first aired Nov. 19, 1956. The series failed in the ratings opposite Lassie on CBS and ended its run after six months on the air. (en)
