Lancer is a 1968-1970 western television series starring Andrew Duggan, James Stacy, and Wayne Maunder as a father and two sons, a kind of darker and more complex version of the more successful Bonanza. Stacy appears as half-Mexican gunslinger Johnny Madrid Lancer while Duggan plays Murdoch Lancer, a less wholly admirable patriarch than Ben Cartwright of Bonanza, and Wayne Maunder portrays Scott Lancer. Guest stars include Warren Oates, Sam Elliott, Bruce Dern, actor/director Ron Howard, Dub Taylor, Cloris Leachman, Stephanie Powers, and Joe Don Baker. Paul Brinegar also appeared as a series regular for part of the run of the show. Lancer lasted for 51 hour-long episodes shot in color.
