Quote from arthurarnell

Hi Carl

Ditto and then an episode of Gunsmoke, I'm not a great fan of Gunsmoke but it was a reasonable episode.

Hi Arthur and sorry I didnt see this before now. Im not ahuge fan of Gunsmoke either but--I think ill start collecting at least the earlier seasons-mainly the black and white ones. Though I watched many of the later seasons--those mostly did nto have the Marshal in them and heavily relied on Festus and that other guy--cant think of his name? but I cant stand him. Ive never seen any of the episodes that had Burt Reynolds or (cant think of his name at the moment--but was the one who later played: McCloud)

Quote from The Irish Duke

Hope your bingo friend feels better soon Ringo

Thank you Irish--and me too. She has never missed this many days of Bingo in over 30 years. I think she is just waiting till her things get back in order because the right side of her face is sagging thanks to the stroke. She is telling em how good her therapy is going--and she has a great attitude. The bad thing is--she will not be returning to work--so is effectively retired and im HOPING the company she worked for--offered retirement.

Somewhere in Sonora

Semi western/gangster series Vegas.

Two Fisted Law

The Man from Utah

The Big Stampede

I ahvent watched any lately because ive been converting several members who are on the Histomil and USMilitaria Forums--into watching Westerns--or more of them. Out of about 10 or so from both sites--I might be able to get a few to join in on the fun here.

Have spent the past two days watching episodes from the original "Maverick" starring James Garner as Bret and Jack Kelly as Bart. Still a very enjoyable, and often funny, TV Western.

Open Range

"The Virginian" with Joel McCrea, a truly dreadful movie.

Hi

I have just watched This Little Bullet an Arizona Forestry Training film made in the 1970 and featuring John Wayne what they do with guns is awesome

The Telegraph Trail

"The Wild North" - on TCM today. A somewhat obscure western starring Stewart Granger and Wendell Corey with Cyd Charisse playing an Indian. The story takes place in Canada with Granger a trapper who kills a man in self defense and Corey the Mountie that is sent to bring him in.

North West Mounted Police.
Gary Cooper movie, which was looking like a good action movie,
until completely ruined by Cecil B. DeMille's insistence
on injecting 'comedy' into some action pieces.
Absolutely silly, including some of Coops badly acted expressions!

Hi

DeMille wanted John Wayne for the second lead in Northwest Mounted Police but Duke remembering how DeMille had treated him when casting the Plainsman turned him down.

a few esp of f troop

I almost picked up the first season yesterday but--I got Rawhide instead. Also, back in 81, I visited Fort Courage. It was not complete when they used it in the series and most of it is till there-or was when we breezed through on our way to Victorville California.
