Gunsmoke vs. Bonanza?!
Question:
Gunsmoke vs. Bonanza?
Answers:
Gunsmoke was by far one of the finest shows on tv. The acting was so excellent. I look at my tapes and marvel at the superior cast and the A One guest list.
I am currently watching this show RIGHT NOW....There's a commercial.
Back later.
Okay...The show just ended.
Now, *cough* ,clears her throat.
Gunsmoke had the BEST cast , EVER assembled. Each one was PERFECT for their role.
I would have paid to have been a part of this troupe. Their genuine affection for each other shone through all the time:

I could list episode after episode that featured some of the best this show offered us.
I will list only a few:
HUMOR.......SOOOOOOO many of them:
"Sgt. Holly" with the great Forrest Tucker. JUST watched it.
ACTION :
Episode Title: The Jailer
Program Time: Saturday October 1, 1966
Actors: Betty Davis, Bruce Dern, Tom Skerritt
LOOK at that guest list!!!
ROMANCE:
"Matt's Love Story" I am STILL watching my tape of this show......Dear GOD!!!!!
One show in particular stands out in my mind....."Hostage"

It was GREAT. It had action AND romance.......anyone who thought Matt didn't love Kitty should see this episode.
I once met Lorne Greene on an elevator. We got off and spoke. He was a very nice man.
NOW.....If I had been on that elevator with JAMES ARNESS, I would have ditched my husband -to-be and never left the lift!!
Seriously, we would STILL be there !!
In conclusion......here's the deal.
Matt Dillon is DA MAN. And he's MY man for as long as I breathe. I absolutely adore him.
P.S. As goode ( I AM clever) as Chester was, Festus was the BEST REPLACEMENT for a key actor ....EVER !!! He was just wonderful...."Don't ya see?!'
