THE ROY ROGERS SHOW is an American Western television series that broadcast 100 episodes on NBC for six seasons between December 30, 1951 and June 9, 1957. Starring Roy Rogers as a ranch owner, Dale Evans as proprietress of the Eureka Café and Hotel in fictional Mineral City, and Pat Brady as Roy’s sidekick and Dale's cook. Brady's Jeep Nellybelle at times had a mind of her own and sped away driverless with Brady in frantic pursuit on foot. Animal stars were Roy's Palomino horse Trigger and his German Shepherd Bullet, the "Wonder Dog".

HORSE CRAZY: Roy is captured by a desperado who wants him to track down his missing horse, who may be faster than Trigger.

JAILBREAK: First episode in the series! Dale Evans helps an innocent young man escape from jail.

As with many other Western films of the 1930s–1950s, the Roy Rogers Show featured cowboys and cowgirls riding horses and carrying six-shooters, but unlike traditional westerns, the series had a contemporary setting with automobiles, telephones, and electric lighting. No attempt was made in the scripts to explain or justify this strange amalgamation of 19th-century characters with 20th-century technology. The series finished #27 in the Nielsen ratings for the 1951-1952 season and #30 for 1954-1955.
