This is one quote from the Wiki that exemplifies what I'm talking about...
Quote:The amiable Waco expatriate was usually described as Dillon's "assistant", but in the December 13, 1952, episode "Post Martin", Dillon described Chester as Dillon's deputy. Contradicting this description, in the July 5, 1954, episode "Hank Prine" (episode 116, minute 3:02)
Hack Prine (NOT "Hank") for example... Air date: May 12, 1956.
It's like they're mixing up the TV show version with the radio show version.
The radio show and the TV show were two different things. The TV version had a lot of episodes the radio show didn't have. It's not acceptable to consider the two as even being in the same universe.
The TV show was way more expansive than the radio show, there were different actors on the TV show vs. the radio show. There were many scripts taken from the radio show and turned into TV episodes, but that doesn't mean we can just go ahead and consider the radio show and the TV show one and the same. That is absolute bullshit.
