¶ And now, folks, the last season 4 entry that concludes the saga of Gil Favor!
"The Devil and the Deep Blue"
written by Louis Vittes
story by producer Endre Bohem
directed by George B. Templeton
guests: Coleen Gray, Tod Andrews, Ted de Corsia, John Pickard, Harry Lauter
It's an interesting and personal final episode that shows a deconstructed outfit (Yates and the men are ready to sabotage and stampede the herds of the other outfit) and lonely and desperate Gil Favor missing his ultimate goal: Abilene, and the money that goes with it. In the process, Favor's outfit is divided in two—because of the arranged death of a trail boss—and split. Favor is morally compelled to take care of two drives and sends Clay as a trail boss and Mushy as a cook—mimicking Wishbone's authoritarian attitude—to the other outfit. The sad aspect is when Gil Favor's men leave him and one of them insults him so therefore he slaps him.

¶ Episode #1
"Incident at Rojo Canyon"
written by Budd Bankson and actor Steve Raines
directed by Ted 'Magnum Force' Post
song "Perfect Love", music by Russel Trost and lyrics by Bill Barron
guests: Julie London, Bobby Troup, Frank Maxwell, John Pickard, Tom Troupe, Linden Chiles
It's a good season premiere that features a dual plot: a female singer drama and a Civil War adventure—Confederate soldiers, ignorant of the fact that the war ended. A blue Sergeant, formerly a Colonel in the Confederate army with a different name, leading now a bunch of young green soldiers asks drover Jim Quince to join up to support him along with Joe Scarlet. Besides, Favor falls in love with the beautiful singer—Julie London performs one song at the start of Act 1. Actor Steve Raines playing drover Jim Quince co-writes this piece—there's a John Ford flavor attached to this story. The episode doesn't features the Act 1 introduction of Gil Favor as an introspective voice-over.

¶ Episode #3
"Incident at Dragoon Crossing"
written by John Dunkel
directed by Ted 'Magnum Force' Post
guests: Dan O'Herlihy, Duane Grey, Garry Walberg, Ralph Thomas
It's a good solid alternate trail boss episode. Gil Favor is sick and feverish and asks trail boss John Cord to run his drive. The cutting edge personality of Cord is the main attraction of this episode: direct, cold, benevolent, brutally honest, conflictual—especially with ramrod Rowdy Yates who is willing to quite. Cord has a lot of enemies, inside and outside the drive. Anyway, Gil Favor is depicted in an unusual way because he is weakened and stuck to a bed during a gunfight in his bedroom and must warn Cord of the Bates gang ambush despite his fragile body.
The episode features the Act 1 introduction of Gil Favor as an introspective voice-over. Here it is:
"Taking a herd north, you have to trail across nearly a thousand miles of the wrinkled skin of Earth. Over terrain that's strange and different as paradise above from the hot place below. Mostly it's too rough or too steep, too wet or dry, too hot or cold, too windy, too lonely. But you take what comes and find a way to move the beeves on through… At least you try… My name's Gil Favor, trail boss."
[Addendum]
None of the leading actors have a picture credits during this third season. The production crew appear at the end of the episode.
