Synopsis
1940s western movie star Lash LaRue appeared at the opening of each episode in a modern-day Marshal's office and would then tell a story about his grandfather, who looked just like him, was also a Marshal, and also named Lash LaRue. The scene would then shift to clips of LaRue's old movies in which LaRue's "granddad" went after bad guys with his sidekick Fuzzy Q. Jones.
