Legends & Lies: The Real West
Fox News mainstay Bill O'Reilly jumps behind the camera, serving as executive producer of this series that explores stories behind some of the most famous -- and infamous -- figures of the Old West. Each episode delves into the life of one such individual, using new interviews, archival photos and forensic science to paint a complete picture of the person. Direct descendants and historians are among the interviewees who shed light on the lives of such figures as Jesse James, Davy Crockett, Doc Holliday and "Wild" Bill Hickok. The 10-episode series is a companion to O'Reilly's book of the same name.
S1, EP5 "Davy Crockett"
David Crockett is much more than his legend as a backwoods hero of the western frontier; in truth, he was an aspiring American statesman who made a bold move to secure his political future, only to bring himself to an early demise.
S1, EP6 "Wells Fargo and Black Bart"
Following the California gold rush, Wells Fargo becomes one of the most successful enterprises in the west; its ubiquitous stagecoaches cross the country, making it a target for the gentleman bandit, a thief who takes a different approach to robbery.
S1, EP7 "Billy the Kid"
Possibly the West's most notorious outlaw, William Bonney kills his first man at just seventeen; soon Billy the Kid joins a gang of murderers and thieves; evidence suggests that the story of Billy the Kid continues.
S2, EP11 "America's First Christmas"
As America celebrates Christmas, FNC tells the pivotal story of the holiday 240 years earlier, as George Washington leads his men across the icy Delaware River, into a bloody, barefoot march to Trenton.
