Saddle up for the Western Mania channel on Apple TV

Ranchers, rustlers, gunfighters, and lively women (not necessarily in that order) are now part of the Western Mania channel, now streaming as a subscription service on Apple TV. The service launched last Friday.

Western Mania features classic western films, currently 16 John Wayne movies, Classic old B-western movies and 116 episodes of Western TV shows like Bonanza, The Rifleman, Wagon Train, Tales of Wells Fargo, and The Cisco Kid.

John Wayne Westerns are a centerpiece of Western Mania, along with the first film he ever produced, “Angel and the Badman”.

The channel is subscription-based with no commercials at $1.99 a month or on a yearly plan at a reasonable $14.99 a year. A 14-day free trial is offered with any subscription.

Stormiest Cinema is the creator of the channel with a freemium subscription-based revenue model. It plans to add new content weekly.
