The Cisco Kid is a half-hour American Western television series starring Duncan Renaldo in the title role, The Cisco Kid, and Leo Carrillo as the jovial sidekick, Pancho. Cisco and Pancho were technically desperados[citation needed], wanted for unspecified crimes[citation needed], but instead viewed by the poor as Robin Hood figures who assisted the downtrodden when law enforcement officers proved corrupt or unwilling to help.[1] It was also the first television series to be filmed in color,[2] although few viewers saw it in color until the 1960s.
