Gunsmoke

Gunsmoke was one of the longest running western tv shows. Law and order was rare in the wild west. Marshall Matt Dillon is responsible for bringing respect for the law to Dodge City. Cattle thieves, gunfighters and other bad guys had better look for another place to get into trouble!

Gunsmoke Trivia:

The wonderful theme song for the tv show was also titled "Gunsmoke" (aka: "Old Trail") and was written by Glenn Spencer and Rex Koury.

John Wayne was offered the part of Matt Dillon but decided that movies were where he wanted to stay. He actually recommended James Arness to play Matt Dillon.

While there had been other westerns before such as The Lone Ranger and Annie Oakley, Gunsmoke was the first one oriented towards Adult audiences. Within a few years there were more than 30 such shows on the air at one time! Some favorites were Bronco, Have Gun Will Travel, Maverick, Rawhide, The Rifleman, Wagon Train and Wanted Dead or Alive.

James Arness is the brother of Peter Graves (Jim Phelps on Mission Impossible).

First Lady, "Lady Bird Johnson", was such a huge fan of the program that, when she learned that James Arness was a Republican, she felt personally betrayed!

Gunsmoke was actually scheduled for cancellation in 1967 due to low rating. CBS President William Paley and his wife were big fans of the tv show, however, so he decided to try moving it from Saturday to Monday. It worked! The tv show got back into the top 10 rankings and stayed on the air 8 more years!

It is often stated that Gunsmoke's 20 years on the air makes it the longest running American television series but that's not strictly true. It is the longest running "typical" tv show in prime-time not counting reruns. Other shows have been on the air longer but not in prime-time or they were news, variety, sports or talk shows. At this time (2003), "Meet the Press (1947)" is actually the longest running tv show on television with 55 continuous seasons! Second is the "Tonight Show" - 49 seasons. Others are "60 Minutes" - 35, "Walt Disney" (Under Various Titles) - 34, "Monday Night Football" - 33, "Saturday Night Live" - 28, "Ed Sullivan Show (aka 'Toast of the Town') - 28, "20/20" - 24 and "Late Show With David Letterman" - 22.

At 6 feet 7 inches tall, James Arness was the tallest tv actor to play in a lead role. He weighed 235 pounds and had a 48 inch chest. Due to his large size, he was one of the first soldiers to storm the beaches at Anzio, Italy in world war II. Like many of those brave men, he was wounded.

If Arness didn't always look huge onscreen, maybe it was because his co-star Dennis Weaver (Chester) was also tall at 6 feet 2 inches! He is a vegetarian and environmentalist. His home was built almost exclusively from recycled building materials. In the 1948 Olympic trials, he won the 1500 meter run and got 6th place in the Decathlon! In 1958, he Amanda Blake (Kitty), and Milburn Stone (Doc) began singing together. In 1960 at the New Mexico State Fair, their performance broke the attendance record at the Albuquerque Arena! He refused to wear a leg brace as a prop on Gunsmoke as he feared being seriously injured while riding a horse. His trademark "limp" seemed to do just fine on its own!

Ken Curtis (Festus) started as a singer for Tommy Dorsey's orchestra! That led to several roles in "singing cowboy" movies which were popular in the late 1940s. He appeared in many of Director John Ford's movies after that (he married Ford's daughter) before landing his role on this program.
