Im addicted....

To the Western channel on encore. Its actually kinda funny to me when I have company over and they laugh at me for watching Have Gun, Will Travel...but damn it it literally is the best shows on t.v...Me and lil man watch more Gunsmoke than Disney or Nickoloden I will watch Matt Dillion get shot almost ever other episode (and be fine by the end of the show), over the fucking Karadashin (spelling? ) or watch those shitbags compete on reality tv!!!!! Sorry, I had to rant I just get mad when people assume that because of my job/tattoos/hair/blah blah blah that I should me a mindless zombie feeding into the syndicated inc. fucktards

This is a GOOD addiction!

Yeah, I approve of that. Lil guy could be watching worse shows than that on TV.

Paladin approves of Have Gun, Will Travel.

Just got done with "She wore a yellow ribbon"...classic....!!!!!

I'm thinking about dumping that crappy HBO crap and getting Encore. I used to have it.

Marshal Matt Dillon kicks ass. That show was on the air for, like 75 years. And it was on radio for like 53 before that. IIRC, William Conrad played Matt on the radio, but he was too fat for the role on television, of course.

Animal Rights folks wouldn't let him on a horse if he did the TV version!

But he got back - he played some of the better bad guys on the show.

Fort Apache is my favorite of the "cavalry trilogy,' but I love them all.

There's an old rumor that John Wayne was offered the role of Matt Dillon, but it's not true. The Duke did encourage James Arness to take it.

Do it. HBO has gone to shit. I stick to Encore and TMC. Besides I need a Western channel buddy! I missed my Marshal Dillion tonight Although, its pretty standard right now. Ms. Kitty gets kidnapped, Marshal gets shot and saves the day, and Chester makes some reference to being hungry : Although, Im kinda bummed because they are doing a sorta-marathon and are in older episodes right now...So i dont have Festus (spelling?)
