I saw him. It was good to see him again. There were a lot
of great episodes on the old series.

I do not watch BOR, but stopped when I realized to he was talking to. I would have never recognized James Arness if I had not seen his name on the screen.

He was great in The Thing, an excellent early '50s sci-fi flick.

When I was a little kid, it would confuse the hell out of me when Bruce Dern kept on showing up in different episodes.Dern and his big, snarling teeth were a fixture on TV westerns.

I caught the interview. Mr. Arness was very well spoken. When they panned to a wide shot of the set, I chuckled when I saw he was wearing sneakers. Hey, when you're 83, you wear whatever is comfortable.
His brother is Peter Graves(Mission Impossible). They both have aged very well-must come from good stock.

His status as a Republican disappointed Lady Bird Johnson, who was a fan of "Gunsmoke" (1955). If that's all that disappointed her during the Johnson Administration then I feel sorry for her.

It was GREAT seeing James Arness again. A real class gentleman.
To: 7thson
James Arness also starred in the Mini-Series 'How the West was Won' as Zeb Macahon. Good series..~!
To: 7thson
I saw Peter Graves on a Geico commercial the other day (Graves is Arness' brother.)
My hubby and I were remarking how well Graves looked, and I was wondering how Arness was fairing. Glad to hear he's
doing so well.

They wanted John Wayne to play the lead but he turned it down and recommended James Arness.
This was based on the bit part James did in Hondo (The best western).

O'Reilly has someone worthwhile on and I miss it. Gunsmoke is on TV Land right now as I'm typing. Arness was also in "Them!" which was on over the weekend.
Arness' limp is very visible on Gunsmoke. I never really noticed it as a kid though.

Oh do you mean Bill O Reilly? Really does is this person high enough on the food chain to be easily recognized by this acronym. Though BORE would be more appropriate

Another Gunsmoke character "Newly" played by Buck Taylor, I just found out the other day that Buck is the son of the great character actor Dub Taylor.

What is BOR?
The headline scared me for a moment, I thought something had happened to him. You can order his autobiography on his website. The biography channel has also has showcased him. He's one of the few good ones still around.
