Beginning on September 11, 1956, in the second season of the series, with the setting moved from Wichita to Dodge City, Kansas, Tannen filled the Hal Norton role. His earliest episodes were Fight or Run, The Double Life of Dora Hand and Clay Allison, the latter two based on historical figures, the saloon singer and actor Dora Hand and the gunfighter Clay Allison. Some of his appearances were uncredited. His last credited role was Doc Holliday Rewrites History (May 6, 1958), with Myron Healey as the frontier gunfighter and dentist Doc Holliday. His last uncredited roles aired thereafter in May and June 1958, Dig a Grave for Ben Thompson, based on the historical figure Ben Thompson played by Denver Pyle, Frame-up, and My Husband.He was cast as Ike Clanton, not on The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp, but in the 1964 episode After the OK Corral of the syndicated western anthology series, Death Valley Days. Jim Davis portrayed Wyatt Earp in this particular episode. Tannen appeared twice, one role uncredited in Davis earlier syndicated western series, Stories of the Century, including the role of Dutch Charlie in Milt Sharp, the story of the stagecoach robber Milt Sharp.
