Matt Dillon kills another outlaw - Gun Smoke - Bruce Gordon (Distant Drummer Series) 1960

[@DanneyTanner]

Please subsrcibe for more great Gunsmoke clips..I also have a couple dozen more already uploaded on this channel..

[@muffs55mercury61]

The first six seasons (the half hour episodes) were the best. Outstanding guest actors that graced our screens from the 1950s to the 1970s. The undertaker never had a shortage of business. Bruce Gordon was busy during this time in his career, first as Frank Nitti on The Untouchables and many guest spots at the same time.

[@DanneyTanner]

I noticed that also. Matt Seemed to get more Mellow after season 6..I was wondering if it was just getting older or 1 more reason maybe his wife at the time was making him more hot headed if im wording that right..He got divorced fom his first wife at season 6.She was in 1 Episode with Matt.The spunky Gypsy girl on the street.

[@muffs55mercury61]

@@DanneyTanner By about season 11 or when they went to color a lot less was seen of Matt and some hardly at all and that turned me off so I never bought those episodes on dvd, nor do I bother watching them on TV. About 90% of those episodes were focused on guest characters. Then in the 1970s Matt started appearing more and the episodes got good again.

[@DanneyTanner]

@@muffs55mercury61 I really havent seen many colored ones at all.For some reason i think it looked bette in black and white anyway.

[@muffs55mercury61]

@@DanneyTanner I'm just a '50s person I guess. I was born in 1954 and remember some of season 5 and most of season 6 which were the last of the half hour ones. Then throughout the 1960s and '70s these half hour ones were syndicated as "Marshal Dillon". So when they came out on DVD in the early 2000's I jumped for joy after not seeing many for 20 years or more. TV Land did run some of them in the 1990s which was nice.

[@Garrett94]

Absolutely and Nothing against Festus but I’ve always liked Chester so much better. The first 7 seasons were amazing

[@JayDogTitan-he6wo]

I love these black and white episodes of Gunsmoke, Classic TV at its best.

@@DanneyTanner Lol, not nearly as many as white guys in skinny jeans and joggers seeking reparations. 😆

[@jameshoran8]

That was the early Dillon style. He thinks the guy is guilty, but can't prove it so he pushes the guy's button and threatens him with jail until the guy breaks and goes for his gun.

[@DanneyTanner]

True story. They wanna fight to stay out of jail.

[@DanneyTanner]

@Willie Gordon Thats old trick thats is still done today. A officer has the legal right even to lie to you about anything to try to get you to confess.

[@sharoneasley9717]

James Horan, there was no trick! The guy was guilty, and he knew his goose was cooked. In the old west, hanging was the capitol punishment for murder. That guy knew what was going to happen later, so he decided to try his luck, and LOST! Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time. Lol

[@mymusic8414]

@@sharoneasley9717 well in his case he wouldn't be doing time, the hanging was usually a day or two after the guilty verdict.

You would think that word would eventually get around to not try to draw on Marshall Dillion, but fools just kept trying and dying. Love Gunsmoke, the best TV Western series of them all.

[@equine2020]

Arrogance out weights logic. Look at some politicans today. Ignore lawlessness, & injustice to the average person. Perfer outsiders.

[@larryrobinson6914]

Bruce always had short life expectancy in any Genre. Great Nitti!!!!!!!!!

[@sharoneasley9717]

larry robinson, yes he did play a great Frank Nitti in the 1950s, the untouchables. Nitty was Capone's "enforcer."

[@hisxmark]

As the railroad was being built, camps for the workers and materials were set up at intervals along the line. Some grew into towns and cities. Dodge was one of these. From the first, there was a railroad running down the center of Front Street. That's just an interesting fact.

[@muffs55mercury61]

Same for central Arizona along I-40 or old US 66 which was the Santa Fe. Some of those towns such as Winslow were the most lawless areas west of the Mississippi.

[@DanneyTanner]

RIP Frank Nitti..Whoever you are

[@kelleyburks9777]

Matt Dillon always shoots to kill ❤❤❤no questions❤❤❤

[@donaldcassidy1592]

Don't draw on Matt Dillon! Watched for so many years, when episodes turned to color the episodes were slowly weakened. Older b&w had better writers. ENJOY your day and stay healthy as possible! Stage 4 evil C fighter!

[@DanneyTanner]

Thank you

[@KcityMikeThomas]

I absolutely agree. I have all the B & W episodes on DVD. First we lost Chester and then they lost quality. Matt, Kitty and Doc were always a joy to watch.

[@lancepeacock3753]

Hope for the best sir

[@gerrydooley951]

starting in 1964 the network began to clamp down on violence so they had to focus more on anthology type stories. That's why you saw less of Matt

[@muffs55mercury61]

Yes what turned me off is by the time they went to color, less was seen of Matt. The scripts weren't as good either. Then around 1970 we started seeing more of him again. Matt Dillon IS Gunsmoke.

I think there were men who just hung around Front street waiting for Matt to shoot someone so they could carry the body away.

not smart play by the bad guy, he had to draw then rotate180 degrees to target. Matt had to draw then rotate 90 degrees. You better do the math before you make play.
