SUGARFOOT
Another TV western from the Warner Bros. stables, Sugarfoot starred Will Hutchins as easterner gone west Tom
Brewster, nicknamed Sugarfoot for his apparent total lack of cowboy skills—Sugarfoot
being a designation even below that of a tenderfoot.
Writer/producer Hugh
Benson created the character of Sugarfoot as a gentle itinerant
cowpuncher who was also a law school correspondence student determined to
become an attorney someday. Some of his adventures had a comedic flair while
others were deadly serious.
Like many of his contemporaries, Sugarfoot had a run of Dell comics and a series of U.K. Annuals, which ran under the title, Tenderfoot, which was what the program was called in Britain.
