The Big Picture The television series credited with launching Clint Eastwood's impressive career, Rawhide was a Western staple in the 1950s and '60s that really captured the spirit of the TV Western at the time. Filmed entirely in black-and-white, this series began with Eastwood as ramrod Rowdy Yates opposite Eric Fleming as trailboss Gil Favor. Eventually, Rowdy graduated to trailboss himself and finished the series as the star of the show during its eighth and final season.
Release Date January 9, 1959 Creator Charles Marquis Warren Cast Clint Eastwood , Paul Brinegar , Eric Fleming , Steve Raines Seasons 8 What Is 'Rawhide's Final Episode About? The very last time we ever heard that iconic theme song was in "Crossing At White Feather," a standalone episode that doubles as the series finale for the long-running Western show. Here, trailboss Rowdy Yates is working closely with a father and son duo, Jonas and Aaron Bolt , who struggle to get along.
Jonas helps lead the cattle across the river with the help of Wishbone , Jim Quince , Ian Cabot , and the other riders to great success. Upon making it safely across, Jonas leaves his son with Rowdy, noting that the trailboss will do a better job for him than a drunk person like him ever could . But after learning from Rowdy that the trailboss has never seen his own deadbeat father again, Aaron runs off after his father. Rawhide officially ends with Simon asking Rowdy where the boy is headed.
But why get rid of your lead star? Simple: money. "They fired me because they were paying me a million dollars a year," Fleming told TV Guide back in 1965, and while that figure was a bit of an exaggeration, the truth is that CBS wanted Rawhide to be a bit cheaper. Apparently, Clint Eastwood wasn't too happy about it either, wishing that Rawhide hadn't fallen entirely on his shoulders at all. "Why should I be pleased?" he told the outlet.
