The Dick Van Dyke Show - Season 5, Episode 31 - The Gunslinger - Full Episode

[@kurtb8474]

I've seen this one 100s of times and I never fail to laugh. And Mary was just adorable!

[@bluestrife28]

Every time I see or hear grits I think “hominy grits. Idk about 40 or 50.” This show was part of my rearing ❤

[@deborahhenry8980]

Great Writing and Great Acting!! They must have had a terrific time doing this one!! 🤣

[@practical1-j3f]

Carl Reiner's death scene cracks me up every time I watch it (I replayed it a couple times!) Hilarious!😅

[@GroovyShelly]

Second to last episode of the series. Still brilliantly funny, terrific writing, perfect comedy acting. (Notice Garry Marshall as the bartender in the saloon.)

[@flwrfan1752]

@GroovyShelly-I did notice that was Garry Marshall as the bartender!Nice surprise.He wrote some of the episodes with his writing partner Jerry Belson.

[@robponton3181]

this was the best of all Dick Van Dyke shows!😅

[@kristabrewer6736]

not QUITE!

[@B-and-O-Operator-Fairmont]

My personal favorite was from "The New Dick Van Dyke Show" - "Queasy Rider".

[@MichelleMott]

I always liked the eps of Rob's dreams. Hilarious.

[@luvluvluvluvcats]

21:37 that is the most hysterical dance of death ever. I nearly fell out ' my chair!

[@fromthesidelines]

Carl was a master of that on "YOUR SHOW OF SHOWS".

[@diddymuck]

my vote for the funniest ep of the series. MTM's song and dance was a suprise!

[@tonyarceneaux286]

She did have history as a dancer before she did this show

[@D_Parks]

@@tonyarceneaux286 There are many episodes where both Rob and Laura dance.

[@nancyhowell4505]

@diddymuck *surprise? 🙂

[@-oiiio-3993]

A tribute to Eva Tanguay (1878 - 1947); _I Don't Care_ was her signature song.

[@MrJayWillis1]

The absolute funniest show he made.

[@sonnyr3439]

MTM looks so good with long hair.

[@deborahhenry8980]

This is the Best of the Best!!! Very Funny and Creative!! My New Favorite 😍 💕

[@walterschivo9123]

That was such a great episode. I saw it tonight on Cozi. The way Alan Brady reacted to being shot reminds me of Bilko for some reason.

[@joannwilliams7500]

The original Woody... 😂

[@MrGlobaldave1]

This was great! What a way to spin off from the typical DVD shows. Clever. I still have a sweet spot for MTM (Laura) - just down right adorable.

[@-oiiio-3993]

16:53 - A tribute to Eva Tanguay (1878 - 1947); this was her signature song.

[@nancyhowell4505]

Really enjoyed the change of pace in this episode. Unusual in a lot of ways. Thanks and blessings for sharing! 🙏👏👍👍

[@susannaCdonovan23]

What's funny about this episode is that Bad Brady wrote the show. Good old Carl Reiner. They used Desilu Studios too. This is an era that will never return.

[@Usercm679]

Dick Van Dyke is a great actor

[@daviddriver2692]

Loved MTM's long hair😉

[@teijaflink2226]

She looks very cute with long hair.

[@jackkircher1755]

This one of the few episodes I have seen a few times. It is hilarious!

[@-oiiio-3993]

MTM looks heavenly in this one.

[@B-and-O-Operator-Fairmont]

"Not too good, I was shooting at the picture." I think I was eight when I first saw that (in reruns by then) and I never forgot it.

[@danfuller478]

Jerry's dentist office was always a room in his home, with a bucolic suburban setting showing out the window. But here we see the cityscape that was used for the writer's room. As this was the last episode filmed, they were prob already underway shutting the production down, and had to make do with sets that were still available for the opening and closing scenes with Jerry.

[@stephenstumbke1721]

Perhaps he had a practice in the city as well

[@dennisandry1632]

@stephenstumbke1721 Well..in the episode that Rob and Laura saw Jerry and a blonde at the White Peacock..the next day Rob phoned Jerry to ask if they wanted to ride DT together to work..so Rob could talk to Jerry to see what's going on. When Rob asked Jerry..I thought the same..Jerry has his office in his house.

[@walterschivo9123]

Hey Dent, Dent! That was funny.

[@williamfoster9039]

Laredo meets Dick Van Dyke Show! Both were on tv in mid '60's!😁

[@harmonymusic2463]

My favorite episode!

[@kristabrewer6736]

no, it's not

[@armyofthempets9083]

Rob is such a goofball!

[@APHS-B]

"Are you satisfied?", "Oh yeah, we're satisfied" Hilarious. Wasn't that "Monty Pythony" three years BEFORE Monty Pythons even started? Would they "steal" that? They built a genre on that twist... Superlative comic, Dick Van Dyke!

[@gordianturkey6679]

My all time favorite!

[@janedoe6435]

did anyone notice the view out the window? it seems to be a city view when jerry's office was next door to rob's house in the suburbs !

[@danfuller478]

Not only a city view but the identical one to Rob's office downtown. As the show was ending production my guess is a lot of the lesser used sets had already been shut down by this time.

[@ritahackmann7782]

I LOVE the makeup and dresses

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

If they wanted to write a comedy sketch, they failed miseralby. I was crying...since I was laughing so hard.

[@chereecargill355]

Allan Melvin as the gun salesman.

[@a.b.creator]

Carl Reiner ! Thats where Jim Carrey got the dying scene in MASK !! 😁 It's the same!

[@CrissyRed]

Did Rob say ‘oh sh!t’ when he got shot??? Lol

[@filo_bun]

i noticed that oml lol-

[@THATGUNTOTTINPATRIOT30]

Oh shit I think he did

[@RiverGem]

Rob said, "His gun ain't even cocked! Okay, yes it is!"

[@tonyarceneaux286]

Ready for a funny 😀 gun 🔫 show episode.

[@fromthesidelines]

Originally telecast on May 25, 1966.

[@arunima7265]

Does dvd look like the Toy story toy

[@frankmcfarlane-e8m]

"And Mary Tyler Moore AS the beaver"

[@scottstacey7447]

Note that some of the extras were the writers of the show. Sam Denoff and Bill Persky were the first after "The Sherriff" puts his boot on.

[@1Bornconfused]

On top of that, the kids on the porch outside on the beginning were all DVD's real kids.

[@scottstacey7447]

@@1Bornconfused Both of Dick's sons were in an earlier episode "The Talented Neighborhood".

[@1Bornconfused]

@scottstacey7447 Yup - violin playing Florian was Barry, and Frankie Sinatra wannabe was Christian.

[@fromthesidelines]

Garry Marshall and Jerry Belson also appeared as the "Bartender" and "Poker Player", respectively.

[@markcamp4698]

OK, was I hearing things or at the 22:06 mark when Rob got shot in the shoulder, did he drop the "S" bomb?

[@ssoforlife]

he said "yes it did"

[@RiverGem]

Rob said, "His gun ain't even cocked! Okay, yes it is!"

[@pamhoward5102]

Did you notice Laura hair ( fake wig). Her real hair is sticking out. You have look very carefully. They could done her hair better.

[@kristabrewer6736]

I can't believe they had this LOUSY episode as the second to last one! :(

[@DanielLiebert-i1p]

"Hominy grits?" "Oh, about 30 or 40" And Van Dyke spoofing Western macho in about 20 scenes and a lot lot more fun stuff.

[@tomryan4968]

Pretty sure this is the only episode of the show where they filmed outside. Also clear why Reiner decided to end the show after five seasons… They were kind of scraping on this one.

[@fromthesidelines]

They used the "GUNSMOKE" street on the CBS Studio Center backlot.

[@DanielLiebert-i1p]

It was the only show (or one of very few) without a live audience. The actors were used to audience energy so it was a little hard.

[@garyfrancis6193]

I have definitely never seen this one. Weird. I’m not in the mood for this.

[@kristabrewer6736]

Me either I can't believe they had this LOUSY episode as the second to last one :(

[@teijaflink2226]

Some seem to think this is the funniest episode, while I think it was okay I think there where so many funniest and more cleverly written episodes. I just watched the episode where Rob tries to hide from Laura he got hurt in a skiing accident, I was laughing out loudly through the whole episode because of DVDs physical comedy, this episode kind of made me sleepy though.

[@Jose-mi7ix]

I’m fifty and live on a steady diet of 20-30 year olds, still have never met a woman like mtm

[@garyfrancis6193]

Absolutely the worst one they made after “ The Bad Old Days” in the first season. By Season 5 it’s almost like they stopped trying. Sheldon Leonard said no comedy series shoukd run for more than five years. As a result of that Don Knotts quit the “ Andy Griffith Show “ which wasn’t worth watching after that. This show I think the writers knew that rule and just put out trash to finish their contract as they knew there wasn’t going to be another season. Sheldon Leonard got into producing “ I Spy” which required international shooting locations and let these comedy series wither and die. Too bad as they became classics. I knoe Andy Griffith Show continued in colour but Don Knotts was the soul of that show.. I was a teenager then so lived that history. CBS purged all its “ country” themed shows and TV continued to self destruct. The 60’s were a Golden Era of TV but history now. Dtar Trek was cancelled after three years and it went on.

[@garyfrancis6193]

Disappointing.

[@kristabrewer6736]

VERY!

[@capacola262743]

why is richie always SHOUTING?

[@m.on4ca97]

That's so true. I never thought about that. Thanks for your vision.
