Since I purchased almost all of the original 30 minute episodes of “Gunsmoke” from Columbia House (four per tape at $25), I am still disappointed that this amazing series was not released in sequence of broadcast, just as it was released by Columbia House.
“Gunsmoke” was so much more than entertainment 50 years ago. Families would gather around the “Cool Blue Fire” to share the stories (and morality tales) told by the actors and writers. Fifty years ago I was six years old, and obviously not cognizant of the great leap forward - into ‘adult’ territory - which “Gunsmoke” represented.

When I began watching the Columbia House 30 minute episodes, always in order of first broadcast ten years ago, I was amazed at the quality of the productions and the way that the totality had survived across (then) 40 years. Awed.
By selecting the ‘best’ of “Gunsmoke” the marketers imply that the rest of the series was like every other series on TV: there were only a few episodes worth watching, much less, worth BUYING. My view: that is not true.
This is one series that still deserves to be watched, and remains “must see” TV after 50 years.
I would encourage the release of “Gunsmoke” by seasons, just as “Have Gun Will Travel” is being released.
“Gunsmoke” was the primal American legend brought to black and white TV. It deserves to be seen as it was broadcast, not simply because the nostalgia quotient is higher but because it remains a seminal series.
The definitive episodic TV Western.
As most fans of “Gunsmoke” probably know, this set and the second set, representing the latter half of the series, include some very good episodes drawn from throughout the show’s 20 year run, but are not season sets. But what you do get are 17 very good looking episodes from the first nine seasons, primarily the Chester Goode (Dennis Weaver) years, with the last episode introducing Festus (Ken Curtis). What distinguishes this collection is the inclusion of some truly great DVD extras, from John Wayne’s introduction of the first episode to Dennis Weaver’s home movies made on the set, as well as other great bonus material. The inclusion of so many extras should come as no surprise as this collection was produced by Paul Brownstein, who was also behind the great DVD releases of “The Dick Van Dyke Show.” Considering the age of the episodes, it’s wonderful to hear so many episode commentaries, not only from the likes of stars James Arness and Dennis Weaver, but from popular guest stars like Angie Dickinson, George Kennedy, Adam West and Barbara Eden, all of whom share wonderful memories of the show and their early days as actors working in the relatively new medium of television. Both James Arness and Dennis Weaver took active roles in this DVD release, with Mr. Arness providing audio introductions for every episode and bonus item, and Mr. Weaver sharing his “Gunsmoke” memories.
While it would have been preferred to have full season sets of “Gunsmoke” (and, who knows, maybe this will eventually happen), Paramount has delivered a mostly great release.
