China Smith

I remember that my mom and dad were fans of this show when we got our first television set. I don't remember much about the show except the white suit he wore as a pretty tough guy. And that the show was set in Asia and Smith was always amidst beautiful babes. I have been a Dan Duryea fan for a long time. I always enjoyed seeing him in feature films. He usually played a bad guy, but there was always something cool about his characters. Charismatic, somehow. I loved the Twilight Zone episode where he played the drunken gunfighter. Duryea made his mark playing many a villain or miscreant, but by all accounts, he was one of Hollywood's real nice guys. I plan to try to buy the 'China Smith' episodes and look back to see what my parents found so compelling about this character.
