I prefer brisco country Junior, but they're barely the same genre

Isn't that one "weird west?"

According to the latest Nielsen streaming report, Gunsmoke is one of the top 10 most-watched acquired series across all measured streaming services.

How specific.

It sounds like they're just splitting out original programming, so from a service's point of view it's not a weird thing to track.

It was a good show, and parts of it hold up well as casual entertainment

You can tell the truth that everyone is just here for Miss Kitty.

Wellllll, ngl, I had a thing for redheads partially because of her.

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Her and Marilu Henner on Taxi!

I SEE NOTHING!!!!

Or go deep like the Marianas Trench, binge-watch The Cisco Kid, Colgate Comedy Hour and Texaco Fireside Theater!

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 6 points 1 year ago

That's because Gunsmoke is cool as fuck!

90's nostalgia is so strong people are even recreating the boom Gun Smoke had during peak cable when new channels were desperate for content.

[–] klu9@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Pfft, it ain't Gunsmoke if the Marshal ain't played by Bill Conrad.

But seriously, I might give the TV version a try, as I definitely enjoy the original radio show.

We all want an authority figure like Marshal Dillon
