Well there were a bunch of movies I'd never seen or heard of

9/10

8/10,missed #7 because I've never seen the movie Wagon Master, and #8 as I've seen Thad in many episodes, I never knew the actors name.

7/10 I forgot burt reynolds was on gunsmoke

4/10

I don't even know the shows of the 50's so everything was just about guessing

8 of 10? I still love Miss Kitty, those early seasons was there anyone hotter 🔥🤠

I think that was horrible how cbs handled the end of gun smoke after 20 years they deserved better!, they made a lot of money for them!, it’s still so popular after all these years, I watch a lot of episodes of gun smoke on other streaming services too besides me tv my favorite old show to still watch! ❤️ it and the entire gun smoke family

6/10. All were guesses.

8-10. Love GS.

7/10.

10 of 10. All educated guesses, except for the thing from another world.

8 out of 10, with a few guesses. Interesting bit of trivia, both James Arness and Amanda Blake were in the film, "Stars in My Crown," (1950).
