"Hadley's Hunters," which was in season 4 and was the second episode. One sequence had Jack Kelly encountering all of the stars of the WB TV westerns (except Wayde Preston because Colt .45 had just gone off the air and was represented by a dusty, empty office and Preston's character's briefcase), plus Edd "Kookie" Byrnes from 77 Sunset Strip. The episode is considered a classic today.

As I recall, the first three shows I listed were on rotation, while the last three were standalone series.

A non-western series called Conflict was also part of the rotation by using the same time slot as Cheyenne and the others.
