9/10. There was no mention of the fact that, on the original radio series, Kitty was a prostitute!

Well, two out of 10 and even that was a guess. I never watched Gunsmoke… Not even one episode! Oh well…😁

Whew doggey. On today’s episode of Gunsmoke, “MacGraw”, the main character walks into the Bull’s Head saloon. Immediately, I recognize Sam tending bar and when asked for the owner he points to Miss Kitty sitting at a table. Somewhere in the middle of the episode they show the Bull’s Head saloon again but it’s entirely different. If my wife hadn’t seen it with me I would think I was seeing things. If anyone has the Gunsmoke DVDs and can verify I’m not going crazy I’d be “much obliged”. Happy Father’s Day MeTV gang.

Season 15, Episode 12…..called “Macgraw”….In the scene you’re writing about, Macgraw was across the street from the Bull’s Head Saloon…..He was standing under a sign that read The Long Branch Saloon, but across the street, Macgraw saw someone of interest (at that point we don’t know who) entering The Bull’s Head Saloon…..but Macgraw does not cross the street….instead he turns around and as he does, it shows him entering the establishment with the sign that reads The Long Branch Saloon….Miss Kitty never owned any saloon in Dodge but the Long Branch…..The Bull’s Head was the seedy saloon where none of the repetitive characters (Mat, Doc, Festus,etc) visit…..

9/10 not too bad. Love "Gunsmoke", especially the first 10 years of it.

I agree love those episodes way more than the last 10 seasons. The color ones seemed so corny.
