      The recruitment ad read: "Wanted: Young, skinny, wiry fellows not over 18. Must be expert riders, willing to risk death daily. Orphans preferred".
    • Goofs
      "Wild Bill" Hickok never actually rode for the Pony Express, though he did join its parent company, Russell, Waddell & Majors Freight Company, when he was 21.

    Great Show

    I grew up watching this show and loved every minute of it. While not very historically accurate, it was great fun and will be missed. While many of the actors involved in the series are still yet unknown, it was full of many talented actors. Jonathan Franklin went on to star in SeaQuest, Stephen Baldwin went on to star in many movies and Anthony Zerbe is an acclaimed actor. This show is worth watching.
