He didnt even need to speak he just looked at people and they knew he knew they were wrong.And better get the hell out of his way. The man of the old west.
The 50's Westerns ruled on TV, I have myself season1 +2 of Gunsmoke , It began with Dillon standing on Boot Hill , that first season an most of the stories were from the radio show . I also liked Arness in How The West Was Won too .
I have the early days library of Gunsmoke & The Duke did kick off the series with a video monologue. The producers did want John Wayne to be Matt Dillon, but as we all know Jim got the part.
under-rated a subtle, talented actor especially with his face-when Dillon shows contempt and loathing with eyes and mouth, without saying a word, you know it's time to get the fuck outta Dodge, fast
James Arness is one of the greatest western stars ever..
Gunsmoke was and still is a classic.

Matt is my favorite...I love my western nothing beat a good ole cowboy
those old Westerns was so great. So much better than anything on TV now.

Actually I can't imagine a better choice for Matt Dillon. Better I say, grudgingly, than the Duke.

He got cheated out of alot of $.
