Gunsmoke was my favorite TV show growing up in the '60s and '70s. And always will be because of larger-than life James Arness. He was such a great man playing a great character in a lovable yet exceedingly dangerous Dodge City town. God Bless and take care of his soul and the entire crew who have gone to Heaven.

He soldered on through the pain, war injuries and everything life throw at him. In this man lived the soul of a true plainsman, mountain man, and pioneer. Through it all he "kept on keeping on" as a very good friend of mine from Louisiana said. There really is nothing else to do. You get to living. The alternative is not very pleasant.

I honor those that fought and, sometimes died, so I could have a Life. I do. James arness was in the world war two conflict. He had war wounds that lasted all throughout his life. He was a real life hero. One person that interviewed him said "it is difficult to know where Matt Dillon leaves off and James arness begins."

This was from the episode, Ten Little Indians. Bruce Dern and Warren Oates in a face off earlier was classic

I love Matt Dillon. I watch his show 5 times a week. 💖

Gunsmoke is on every day with 4 to 5 episodes on ISPN channel. Also full length movies about Matt Dillon as he got older. Matt was shot chasing killer in nearby state.. bullet hit head. Found unconscious by widowed white ranch owner. She took him home. When he awoke he had amnesia. Did not know name or where from. He got better after a few months. They fell in. Love. Finally he slept with her one night. A drifter. Stopped at ranch recognizing Matt. He told him who he was and that he was a Marshall of Dodge City. Matt remembered slow and left to go back to Dodge City. All was fine for 18 years but then the lady traveled to Dodge City to ask Matt for help. He had not seen her for the 19 years. Her daughter had been kidnapped and she asked Matt to track and find her. Matt went and found the girl, Beth. Fought. And killed kidnappers. He returned her to her mother's ranch and found she was his own daughter. Kitty had taken up with a gun toting gambler who took over Dodge City. Matt left for good and returned to the ranch and his daughter when her mother died. Matt became wealthy cattle man on the ranch with , daughter ,... Beth, she had huge wedding but an older Matt Dillon was arrested in middle of the reception by federal Marshall's. He had been framed so Matt went peaceably but was allowed to track down real criminals that framed him. Thus the first length movie number one. Turned into full length movie number two. Then full length movie 3 when as much older retired Matt Dillon, Kitty sent for him. To clean up Dodge City from the criminal gambler who had a Hold on Dodve City and on Kitty. He went , cleaned up corrupt Dodge City , killed ganbler gunman.....and very cooly said goodbye to an older harsh looking Kitty for good. Returning to his cattle ranch a state away, his daughter, son inaw and grandchikd.....watch the Matt Dillon movies of. " after Gunsmoke". Probably on you tube. They finish the story of Gunsmoke, Matt Dillon, and Kitty. Covers Matt ( James Arness) life over 30 years.....great movie trilogy.

The Marshall didn't even need to tie that scabbard to his leg !!!

“Khartoum, Khartoum-I’m not gonna race him, though. I’m gonna put him out to stud!”

You just knew early in the episode when a guy named Jake Pinto showed up, he was going to be trouble.

The old black and white episodes (1955-66) were of better quality and had better scripts than the later ones that are seen on MeTV and others today. The problem with later Gunsmokes is Matt is not in as much and in some cases hardly seen at all. I remember this one. Bruce Dern is also a gunman but gets knifed instead. As of Dec 2020, Nehemiah Persoff is still alive and is now 101.

Lol, all those people stood around and watched the bad guy roll over and aim his gun without saying a word. 😆

Yes true..😆

I was born in 1955 the same year that Gunsmoke made its TV debut; the show stayed on the air until I turned 20 years old. Every week, for 20 years this show played on our living room TV because my Dad liked it so I literally grew up watching this show. Honestly, I couldn't stand this show for some reason; I found it boring and tedious, even depressing. I didn't like any of the characters and I even hated the theme song and background music. Back in those days we only had one TV and only 3 channels so the show didn't have much competition. After awhile, when this show came on, I would find something else to do. Sorry Gunsmoke fans, but we're not all wired alike.

The town'sheeple were standing right by that guy on the ground and still let him get that last shot in. Just like today - people just don't have it anymore. John Wayne was right when he said the movie High Noon was an embarrassment concerning the town'sheeple. We still can learn some good lessons from these old tv westerns!

I especially love the black and white episodes.

"Ten Little Indians" [October 9, 1965]

Thank you I’ve been wanting to see the first and last episode of gunsmoke awesome👍but what’s going on with tv shows of gunsmoke lately? they are in color nothing like the original gunsmoke and showing different actors I’ve never seen before and Im seeing less of the gunsmoke cast in the show 🤨

He was also great as Zebulon or Zeb on How the West was Won.

TV is absolutely nothing like it was 40, 50, 60 yrs ago. Nothing like if at all.
