The series was developed by Pen Densham and John Watson and premiered on CBS on January 3, 1998, running for two seasons through July 3, 2000.

Seven men from the western United States band together and form the law in a town that, for better or for worse, needs their protection from the lawlessness of the west.

They consist of an infamous gunslinger, an ex-bounty hunter, a smooth-talking con artist, a young eastern amateur, a womanizing gunman, a freed slave turned healer, and a former preacher seeking penance.

The band of seven — Chris, Vin, Buck, Ezra, J.D., Josiah and Nathan — each from different walks of life, come together to protect the village.

MGM Home Entertainment (distributed by Fox) has released the entire series on DVD in Region 1.
