I consider the Chief Crazy Coyote trilogy Westerns. And yes, Westerns were hugely popular and dominant on prime-time TV the turn of the 1950s and 60s.

Huck has his hands ready to draw, walking toward the door, the sound of spurs jingling on the soundtrack. He stops and looks at us. “You know, I just cain’t figure out that jinglin’ noise. I’m not even wearin’ spurs.””<br /><br />Stuff like THIS, is why I love these cartoons!
