According to IMDb, these are the most popular 50 westerns on their site at this time. These results seem to be generated from how many people searched and viewed each western TV series pages.
The Westerns On The Web original series show The Forsaken Westerns has climbed from #60 all the way up to #48. Passing many classic and newer western series shows in popularity.
The rapid ascension of The Forsaken Westerns
in popularity may be a surprise to some, but the extreme interest in a series of never broadcast and long forgotten westerns containing big name classic film stars and hosted by sought-after western film historian Bob Terry is in our opinion a great formula for success. While at least a half dozen of these shows in the top 50 seem not to be true westerns in the sense of what a western film traditionally contains. Nevertheless this is IMDb’s statistics.
