Yèah many thanks J Mac!!!....I 'm addicted to this awesome radioshow and its characters ..all these great actors ...and not to forget all the great solid storylines many of them written by John Meston. I simply cann't get out of 'the Matt, Kitty, Chester and Doc' Dodge City. Almost every story tells about 'real life' and 3-D people. And full of humour too. 480 episodes of The Gunsmoke Radio Show.....what else?!!

Anymore bob hope charile McCarthy bing Crosby burns and Allen Fred Allen please

That's probably the darkest episode in the history of the radio series.

I grew up watching Gun smoke. I'm 71 years old. There's only one episode I hadn't seen. It had James Arnes's real daughter, Jennifer, in it.

'Promosm' 👇

A classic

Great

Now that was deep..😢

Very good.

I thought this was acted. I didn’t realize that it’s only narrative. 😢😢😢😢🥺🥺🥺🥺

Thanks J Mac OTR. A sad but enjoyable story. 🤠

That guy is the definition of "jerk."

Hi😊 Thanks for uploading this!❤

.😮revealing the plot in our comments is not cool

GUNSMOKE had so many shows with downbeat endings. No wonder they couldn't get sponsors. Best radio drama of all - time.

Patrolman Parker.....he was saying "I don't want to make "a Fess"....but....

I like that sweet little next door neighbor lady. I saw just the opposite kind of a lady that was in that movie I was talking about it my comment about that other movie. The cleaning lady found him and she could hardly wait to get out of the house to spread all of the gory details around. How the man’s brains were scattered all over the wall behind him, etc. She was sickening telling about it. 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Too much lead gasoline fumes in the air.

I saw a movie where 4 kids killed their father just like that. They did it because they were jealous of him because their mother and he loved each other and they wanted their mother all to themselves. And didn’t I just see Fess Parker talking to Jack Webb? 😅😅😅😅

I liked Harry Morgan playing Jack Webb’s partner better. 😊

i didn't know daniel boone was a cop

Dail 9 1st,that would drive me crazy l o.l

Wow, harsh 😢

Funny

Great episode, up to the ridiculous "full confession" blurted out by the "possible suspect" almost as soon as he walked into the room. Just so implausible!

They literally use the term "pull yourself up by your bootstraps"!

Message from KZbin: New achievement -- 10,000 views Thanks for listening and watching my channel...

This is proof, if you need it, that there were already strange killers in California back on the Release date of this one: March 4, 1954 I thought you would include this in your 'description' of the show: 👉Keep your eyes open as you watch this one, as Fess Parker and Dennis Weaver (two popular 1950s-60s actors) make small appearances as police officers.

Well, maybe he got to hear Johnny Cash free...

I wonder what Jack Webb looked like in 1949. His voice sounds younger in the radio version. I only know him from the 60s incarnation of the TV show.

ya used the wrong radio !!

I thought that I had listened to every episode of Gunsmoke - 2 or 3 times, this is the first time for this one. I haven’t even seen it listed before. Thanks

Was there a show of this

First attempt at a short.

Thank you for sharing this old Gunsmoke episode.

Thanks

Funny

Gunsmoke was the best Western on radio and television 📺.

An absolute gem, Love this. Thanks for the upload.

That transistor radio looks just like one I had back in '67 or so.
