  • excejent show and a great charecter

  • As a child growing up in the 60s and 70s I loved the western genre of television shows, especially Gunsmoke. I looked forward to the program every week. It must have been exhausting for these actors putting out an hour program every week for as long as they did. The quality of the show was always excellent. I often wondered why Matt Dillon always wore a pink shirt.

  • A GREAT CONSERVATIVE AMERICAN!..............FIRE PRESIDENT ZERO 2012!

  • @Gman675 The real Matt Dillon can!

  • Still a great show! Nobody messed with Matt Dillion!!

  • Matt Dillon made the law but at least he honored the law. He hated violence because he wanted to build a town from the ground up(civilize it). I am wondering if they're really was a Matt Dillon who led Dodge out of the dark ages.

  • God Bless You, Mr. Arness! You were a true American hero--on and off the screen!!

  • R.I.P., Marshall. You will truly be missed.

  • Love Gunsmoke R.I.P Mr. Arness

  • i loved watching gunsmoke and loved your portrayal of marshall dillion......you sir will be missed greatly
