Overview

The television series "The Cisco Kid" is a half-hour American Western television series. The show stars Duncan Renaldo as the title character, Cisco, and Leo Carrillo as his jovial sidekick, Pancho. The series features Cisco and Pancho, who are technically considered desperados, wanted for unspecified crimes. However, in the eyes of the poor, they are viewed as figures who assist the downtrodden when law enforcement officers are corrupt or unwilling to help. The series was notable for being the first television series to be filmed in color. This distinction, however, had little impact on viewers at the time, as few saw the show in color until the 1960s.
