The "New Year's Eve" western parody began on December 31, 1980, in prime time, at 8 p.m. on Hungarian Television. It was nearly thirty minutes of cheerful compilation, humorous, musical parody from the eighties, by the Parody Team of Disco-Disco, directed by Nándor Bendai, with music by Iván Rusznák and lyrics by Péter Tardos.

The constant elements of western films came to life, the legendary six-shooter sounded, the slaps fell. In the end, everyone could be satisfied with the foreseeable outcome of the struggle between good and evil, because good had won. Being a musical comedy, in the western parody everyone burst into song and danced, the lecherous ladies, the hard-fisted gentlemen, and even the horses.
