Since this show is the featured guide on the TV Rage frontpage and also since I realize that most here have never watched the show and know next to nothing about it, we can use this thread to answer any questions you might have about the show. |

So, the movie that was made in 1994 was based off the show, right? If so, how does Mel Gibson's character figure into the Maverick family? |

Mel Gibson played Bret Maverick in the 1994 theatrical film. The character was played by James Garner on the TV series. Garner himself appeared in the movie as another character. |

Gotcha. Thanks for answering, the movie was the closet thing to watching the show for me. |

Cali, if you go to AOL Video, they have 55 episodes of the series on-line. You can watch an episode or two there and maybe get a feel for what the series was like. |
