PS I like Gunsmoke also! Doc, Festus, and the gang.

Festus is my favorite. I like how he tries to make out like he's all tough and nasty, but he's secretly nice. Marshall Dillon is great too. Did you know that James Arness was 6' 6"! Almost all the other actors on the show are wearing lifts either from self-esteem issues or because the height difference was so great between them and Arness that without lifts they couldn't fit both actors in the frame. Arness was also a purple heart and bronze star recipient in WWII.

Yeah Festus was my favorite also. He and Doc were always into it yet they cared for each other. But would not admit it for the world! Kinda reminds me of Iddee, Ace, and Cider. Haa haa 😊. Ms Kitty was a smart, intelligent, woman who knew her way around with the nature of humans. She could read trouble as soon as it walked through the swinging doors. James Arness played the good part as Matt Dillon the law man. He rarely showed emotion, his character went strictly by the law, and strictly enforced the law when necessary. He never spoke of personal family so the entire dodge city was his family. He kept the peace when talk would work. Or the gun if absolutely necessary. . A friend to law abiders. And a dreaded enemy of crooks.

My favorite Marty Robbins story is when he he was illegal at Daytona during practice just to be able to pass his friend Richard Petty on the track.
