Western Shows From Maverick To Deadwood.
I love old western movies and tv shows from way back when! Growing up in my household was like a work schedule except without the work. Watching shows like Gunsmoke, Bonanza, and, of course Maverick was a real treat for all of us.
When you have sharp shooters like Marshall Matt Dillon, whose style for catching bad guys was serious and to the point and always getting his man, made the youngsters want to grow up and be just like him. My brother on the other hand wanted to be like those fine fellows of the Ponderosa Ranch in Virginia City. He would dream of the day he could live on a ranch much like the Ponderosa and raise cattle and sheep but, that hasn’t happened yet.
Maverick on the other hand was different. Whether it be James Garner to Mel Gibson,, Maverick was a tale about a gambler who got himself into quite a few mishaps, but, in the end he pretty much always prevails. So, if you want the cowboys and indians then keep watching John Wayne, but, if you want everyday issues with a little humor around it then shows like Gunsmoke and Maverick are the way to go.The hits keep comin’: James Arness, ‘Gunsmoke’ actor, dies
