      Season Two

               SEASON NOTES:  Season One, especially the first half, is critical to the rest of the series because it sets up all the character profiles and relationships.  The first three episodes introduce all the characters and something of their backgrounds.  All the main horses are also established with their riders in the first season.  Some character adjustments are made during the first season - John's character becomes less cold and demanding, Blue is not quite so juvenile, Manolito, who is originally partnered with Blue, becomes paired more with Buck. By the end of the first season John and Victoria's marriage has developed from a stiff and formal arrangement to one of deep affection and passion.   

Episodes are listed here in the order most likely to offer the best series continuity when viewed in order.  It is based on filming dates except where the story line clearly indicates a different order.  For a comparison of actual production order and air dates see the Production Order page.  The first number below indicates the season, the second indicates the episode number (1-98).  Some sources refer to 96 episodes, but the two double episodes are treated individually here, bringing the total one-hour episodes to 98.  The Character Guide pages show which characters played prominent roles in each episode.
