Q: Here’s a challenge for you. I’m 62 now, but as a young boy in the ‘50s, we watched Disney every Sunday night like most American families. I remember one program in particular, The Legend of Andy Burnett. He was a pioneer like Davy Crockett—another Disney favorite. I seem to remember he died, or was killed at the end of the show (killing any chance of a sequel also). Unlike most Disney programs, I don’t think this program was ever aired again. Any chance of finding a DVD or viewing the show somewhere?

A: That was The Saga of Andy Burnett, which aired in six parts in 1957–58. It has not been released on DVD. By the way, Andy (played by Jerome Courtland) was not killed in the final episode; it was one of his fellow mountain men, Jack Kelly (portrayed by Andrew Duggan).
