Set in the Old West in Wildside County,
California, this western adventure featured four
upstanding citizens who formed the "Wildside
Chamber of Commerce" a secret vigilante
law-enforcement group founded (and answerable to
the Governor) to clean up the Northern
California frontier territory filled with local
gangs and wandering renegades.
"Into a lawless land, they brought their own
style of justice. Five men, one mission:
The
Chamber of Commerce of Wildside!"
The group is answerable to the Governor J.
Wendell Summerhayes (Sandy McPeak), a former
gunfighter and associate of the group. He
sometimes offers them special assignments.

Members of the WCC were:
- William Smith as Brodie Hollister, a
rancher known as "The Fastest Gun In the West"
with 29 notches on his gun
- Howard E. Rollins. Jr. as Bannister Sparks,
a bon vivant black explosives expert and card
sharp. He is the proprietor of Bannisters Emporium and Trading Company.
- John DiAquino as Vargas De La Cosa, a
gunsmith equally handy with a knife
- Terry Funk as Prometheus Jones, a huge
veterinarian skilled with the lariat.
- J. Eddie Peck as Sutton Hollister, Brodie's
son who was raised in Boston by an aunt.
Despite his city up bringing, he's just as
good with a six-shooter as his father. Sutton's
romantic interest is Cally Oaks (Meg Ryan), the
editor of the Wildside County newspaper.
