Gunsmoke still airs on Encore's Western channel, and It used to air on TV Land. He was handpicked by John Wayne for the role, and he was awesome at it. They did a few MOWs in the 1990s that were also fun. The only film I own in which he costars is Big Jim McCain, which was a bizarre piece of anti Communist propaganda that attempted to glorify HUAC.
