"Gunsmoke" (1955) - Review & Commentary

[user328]

Ah shit. Chester's challenging some dude to a duel to defend Kitty's honor.

[user328]

The guy thinks he's a famous gunslinger, but nobody in Dodge has ever heard of him. lol

[user328]

This is some bullshit right here.

The guy says he doesn't like killing people, and wants Matt to explain to the townsfolk that he's giving up the gunslinger life.

Dude. You didn't have a reputation in Dodge to begin with. You had to go around telling everybody your credentials. If you wanted to live a quiet, peaceful life, all you had to do was keep your mouth shut, and nobody would've ever known about your killings up north.

S2 E39

Last episode of the season.

Chester's putting cayenne in his coffee now. lol

[user328]

The new card dealer at the Long Branch thinks Matt is fucking his wife. The old card dealer is the one putting that idea into his head.

[Mister Obvious]

Chester's been acting like he has a crush on Kitty lately.

DUDE OMG I NOTICED THATTTTT.

It kinda passes, thankfully.

It was a definite concern there for a few episodes, I think Chester was going through a phase...

Makes no sense that he's not married or at least doesn't have his very own assigned saloon girl.

All the main males in the show seem to be against marriage, which I find very interesting.

They're always cracking jokes about it...

I agree with them but it's interesting to see in a show from the 1950s, set in the 1800s lol.

Very noticeable video scan lines on moving objects in this episode.

[user328]

This gunman is jumpy as hell.

[user328]

S3 E4

Kitty's locking lips with a stranger who's been hanging around town, in the dark alley behind the saloon.

[user328]

Her beau robbed the bank. lol

[user328]

There really are a lot of guys named Nate around Dodge.

[user328]

S3 E7

She's a cutie.

Those scan lines show up in the still image when it's paused too, which makes it very difficult to find good frames for screenshots.

[user328]

Damn. This chick is barely off the stagecoach, and she's married to that guy.

[user328]

All four permanent cast members in their Sunday best.

[user328]

Some dude in a leprechaun outfit from Back East has come for her.

[user328]

Homegirl got shot.

[user328]

"You're not gonna get mixed up in anything if you do what I tell you."

S3 E8

The hangman says to the man being hanged:

"I know how to hang a man without advice from you."

[user328]

The dumbfucks didn't hang around after they hung him to make sure he was dead. Their ex-partner came back and cut him loose. lol

[Mister Obvious]

The dumbfucks didn't hang around after they hung him to make sure he was dead.

Super pathetic that they wanted to kill him so bad but they were too cowardly to watch.

But if they hadn't been, I guess there'd be no story!!!
