S1 E1 - "Matt Gets It"

0:05 holy freakin' crap, it's JOHN WAYNE@!!!!! I heard he turned down the role of the Marshal, but recommended James Arness for it. And damn was he ever right... Arness was beyond perfect for the role. THANK YOU, JOHN WAYNE. You did the world a great service!!!

0:20 "A new television show called Gunsmoke." Wowwww, this intro by John Wayne is amazing. I am so freaking enraptured in my heart and soul right now. This is incredible.

1:50 OMG he looks so young... he spent 20 years of his life on this show. How amazing is that? That's a huge deal.

3:10 "A man deals crooked cards to me, don't matter how hard he dies."

3:38 [uplifting theme playing] lol.

I'm eating burritos... so good. And messy, lmao.

5:18 I absolutely love James Arness's voice... it's so recognizable and iconic. It's very pleasant to me.

7:18 good Lord, Arness is a sexy man... I mean he's laying it on THICK in this first episode. It'll be interesting see how they develop their characters and how they change over the years.

8:10 OMG... I think we're about to meet Miss Kitty for the first time! *heart eyes*

9:00 so they're making the sweetheart connection between Kitty and Matt very apparent right off the bat, but in such a gentle, respectable, lovely kinda way.

13:25 ah shit man... looks like this guy is Matt's problem now!!!

14:55 well this isn't going well at all... lmao. WHAT THE FUCK!? Lol this is probably the closest Marshal Dillon ever comes to death in the entire damn series, lol!!!!!!!

16:58 Chester is damn good looking. And I know it's a little premature to mention him, but I think Festus is good looking too... I think he's my favorite non-Marshal Dillon character!!!

17:12 good Lord, look at this big tall drink of somethin' else just lying out like that, undressed and kinda sweaty... I think Kitty and Matt were the fail-safe eye candy on this show, how could you not be into them?

20:10 I'm sorry but they really should be able to just straight up kill that guy. Wasn't there a "He needed killin'!" law in the old west, or was that just for Texas??

I forgot the early episodes were only 30 minute slots... this one's damn near over!

25:15 that was the most unique gunfight I've ever seen in any movie or show.

That episode went by FAST... I'm glad they started making them longer.
