"Old school, yes!"
Bat Masterson was a U.S. television series loosely based on the historical character. William Barclay "Bat" Masterson was portrayed by actor Gene Barry, who also played a lead role in later television shows "The Name of the Game" and "Burke's Law", among others. "Bat Masterson" appeared on NBC in 107 episodes from 1958 to 1961 and featured Masterson as a superbly dressed gambler in a black suit and derby more inclined to "bat" crooks over the head with his gold-knobbed cane than shoot them.
