"[4] On October 28, 1960, Colbert was cast as Army Corporal Howie Burch in the episode "Two Trails to Santa Fe" of the ABC/WB western series Cheyenne starring Clint Walker.

[5] Colbert's first appearance in Maverick was in the fourth season, in "Hadley's Hunters," playing a character called "Cherokee" Dan Evans, an episode featuring many cameos by the lead actors in other Warner Bros. Western series playing their usual roles: Will Hutchins as Sugarfoot, Ty Hardin as Bronco, Clint Walker as Cheyenne, and John Russell and Peter Brown from Lawman.

Thinking of the inevitable comparisons to Garner that were bound to ensue, Colbert said to his bosses, "Put me in a dress and call me Brenda, but don't do this to me!

Colbert, whose only two episodes as Brent Maverick were "The Forbidden City" and "Benefit of Doubt," had never received enough screen time to see if he could have eventually succeeded in bolstering the ratings.

Before Roger Moore, who played Bart's cousin Beau Maverick, left Maverick during the same season in which Colbert appeared, the studio shot numerous publicity photographs of Colbert, Kelly and Moore cavorting in costume together that are readily accessible on Google Images; the rights to many of the pictures are currently owned by Getty Images.

[7] Throughout the early 1960s Colbert guest-starred in a variety of popular television series including a trip back to Warner Bros. to appear in a 1964 episode of 77 Sunset Strip.

He was also cast as Andy Carter, a pioneer who retrieves for sale cast-off items from wagon trains in the 1964 episode "A Bargain Is for Keeping" of the syndicated television anthology series Death Valley Days (hosted by future President Ronald Reagan).

That same year, Colbert guest-starred in an episode of Bonanza, "The Meredith Smith", in which he appeared dressed almost exactly as he had as Brent Maverick only in full color with a bright blue hatband.

Colbert later starred in an unsuccessful 1970 television pilot for Allen entitled City Beneath the Sea that was shown as a made-for-TV movie.
