Interesting facts

Bowery Buckaroos is a 1947 American comedy film directed by William Beaudine and starring The Bowery Boys. It is the eighth film in the series and the last Bowery Boys film that Bobby Jordan appeared in.

Production

This was the last Bowery Boys movie for Bobby Jordan. He had formerly been billed alongside Gorcey and Hall as the stars of the East Side Kids, but now he was a member of the ensemble. Growing tired of having to take a back seat to co-stars Leo Gorcey and Huntz Hall, he decided to quit the series.

According to Julie Gibson, early in the production Leo Gorcey wanted to take a humorous line of dialogue scripted for Gibson. Not knowing that Gorcey was essentially the executive producer of the series, she flatly refused and Gorcey backed off. Gibson later found out that this was a common practice by Gorcey toward his fellow Bowery Boys.
