Harts of the West is a humorous contemporary Western TV series about a Chicago family moving to a run-down Nevada ranch. The series consists of 15 hour-long episodes that aired on CBS Saturdays, 9:00 to 10:00 p.m., from September 1993 until June 1994.

Much of the series was shot on location in downtown Mayer, Arizona, a small town near Prescott. Clint Black wrote and sang the theme song, In a Laid Back Way.

CBS scheduled the series between two popular Westerns: Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman and Walker, Texas Ranger, and it received positive reviews. One reviewer wrote "Don't make the mistake of ignoring Harts of the West", and another stated the show was "One of the fall season's more appealing new series." However, the series left the schedule in January 1994, with a few final episodes being shown in June 1994.
