Sugarfoot was a wonderful late 1950s and early 1960s Warner western starring Will Hutchins as Tom Brewster . There were 69 episodes . It was a light hearted western . Tom was studying to be a lawyer by mail while working and traveling in the old west . He often ended up in tough spots but was very good with a gun. But didnt like to use it unless he had to . Thus he would get called a sugarfoot which in western lingo was a step below a tenderfoot . Hutch ( as he likes to be called by folks that owe him money ) was nice enough to sit down with me after the memphis film fest and talk to me a bit about Ty hardin and other things.
