Wanted: Dead or Alive - Season 3 in October

**BCI/Eclipse** has announced an October 16th release date for Wanted: Dead or Alive - Season Three. The final season of Wanted will be a 4 DVD set and retail for $39.98, but is available at Classicflix.com for only $27.99. Steve McQueen fans – and fans of classic television – will have a chance to see the early work of such Hollywood luminaries as Steve McQueen as Josh Randall, along with James Coburn, Martin Landau, Dyan Cannon and many more. More details below:

“Wanted: Dead or Alive”, the hit television series that launched the career of Steve McQueen in 1958 as gentleman bounty hunter Josh Randall. The character, originally introduced in an episode of the television Western Trackdown, was so popular that the production company created “Wanted: Dead or Alive” so that McQueen could reprise the role of Randall.

Josh Randall was not a typical rough-hewn bounty hunter of the Old West; he was a consummate gentleman who always gave half – or even all – of his reward money to charity. He was a man of few words, and, unlike most bounty hunters, he carried neither a shotgun nor a rifle but rather an 1892 Winchester lever action pistol, which he wore on his belt and fondly called his “Mare’s leg.” Josh Randall’s catch phrase, “Let’s go,” launched him into unforgettable, classic Western adventures.

Mare's Leg Featurette
The Women of the Series Featurette
