Gunsmoke Radio Show

(4.6 stars; 30 reviews)

Gunsmoke, which first aired on April 26, 1952, and ran until June 18, 1961, on CBS, starred William Conrad as Marshal Matt Dillon. The show featured Howard McNear as the ghoulish Doc Charles Adams, Georgia Ellis as Kitty Russell, and Parley Baer as Dillon's assistant, Chester Proudfoot.

Chester's character had no surname until 'Proudfoot' was ad libbed by Baer during a rehearsal early on. The character of Doc Adams was named after cartoonist Charles Addams. Enjoy the thrilling adventures of the Wild West with Gunsmoke!
