Richard Dean Anderson stars as Ernest Pratt, an ink-stained wretch of a dime novelist who, with the aid of an eccentric European scientist, reluctantly assumes the roles of his fictitious literary hero, Nicodemus Legend. Alternate synop: Ernest Pratt, a dime-store novelist in the old west, lives with his scientist friend Professor Janos Bartok in the small town of Sheridan, Colorado. The people of Sheridan mistakenly believe that Pratt--a drinker, gambler, and womanizer--is the audacious and pure hero of his novels, Nicodemus Legend. Bartok and his associate, Ramos, convince Pratt to assume the Legend persona while supplying him with Legend-like futuristic gadgets that they invent. Together, Bartok and the reluctant Pratt (as Legend), adventure throughout the west solving mysteries, capturing wrong-doers, and even making scientific discoveries ================= Company credits Production Companies * Gekko Film Corp. * Paramount Television * T.L.

Season 1 Review: Anderson gives the character an irresistible goofy charm, and it's nice to see a western that doesn't take the genre too seriously. Read full review
