You're right... this will have to be set straight when I come across the episodes as I work through the seasons.
Typically when I'm watching an episode, I have the episode details open on a browser tab, and I look over the cast list.
If the actors/characters in that episode cast list don't match up with the episode I'm actually watching, then I know there's a problem.
It's pretty fascinating that there are any mixups at all.
Like yeah I get that Gunsmoke is one of the most prolific shows of all time, but I feel like I could definitely check every episode and make it totally 100% accurate on the DVD box set, it's not that hard.
Tedious and time consuming, sure. Totally lacking in excitement on every level IF you're NOT a Gunsmoke fan, sure. But... for anyone who is a true Gunsmoke devotee, it would be an honor to check each and every episode to verify they're all there and they're all in order, etc.
