Movie Review: The Young Riders - Season One
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm glad this show has finally been released on dvd. The VHS tapes that I have aren't the best quality. This western series is about the adventures of a group of Pony Express riders. The Young Riders is packed with action, adventures and interesting characters. The first season is an introductory season where we get to know the characters, their personalities and backgrounds. Through the adventures, you learn more about the characters.
