24/30 should have known hannah, tricked by the dirty sally spinoff so i clicked sally without thinking about it.
24/30. Not too bad. The ones I got wrong I just didn’t know and made bad guesses. I watch Gunsmoke every day; one of the really great shows. Thanks ME TV!

17/30 As you can guess not a big Gunsmoke fan
I guess that John Anderson, John Dehner, Warren Oates and Victor French probably appeared on GUNSMOKE more times than just about any other guest stars I can think of.
Morgan Woodward guest starred on the seminal western series “Gunsmoke” a record 19 times. He was the road gang Deputy with the sunglasses in "Cool Hand Luke" amount other accomplishments

30/30. I have seen all the episodes. A wrong answer on # 26 is Tip Corey. That was the name of a character on The Rifleman, played by guest star Sammy Davis Jr.
That question asked which gunman shot Matt Dillon in the first episode & was the first charater to die on the series. It didn't ask which characters appeared on the series.
30/30 How many of you "heard" Haggen in Festus' voice?
Ken Curtis developed that twang just for the role of Festus. He was a guest star in several black & white episodes & spoke in his normal voice. He had a wonderful singing voice & was the lead singer on the Sons of the Pioneers for several years.
