Overview

William Conrad stars as US Marshal Matt Dillon in radio's greatest adult Western series, Gunsmoke--the story of the violence that moved west with young America--and the story of a man who moved with it. Around Dodge City and in the territory out West, there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers, and that's with a US Marshal and the smell of ... GUNSMOKE! Radio westerns were aimed at kids until 1952 when Gunsmoke hit the radio airwaves. Produced for adult listeners, the stories were grim, the deaths brutal, and life on the plains was harsh. Radio audiences had never heard anything like Gunsmoke and they made it the #1 western on radio. It soon made a successful transition to television, becoming the longest-running dramatic series in TV history.
