Art, this might make you feel better; it did for me... there are quite a number of Gunsmoke fans - some who are clearly young people - commenting on episodes of Gunsmoke on the “Gunsmoke Channel” over at YouTube. They seem to really enjoy the shows.
Thank you floralamiss. I do feel better. Didn't know about the You Tube Gunsmoke Channel. With all the pop culture crap, etc, I just had that thought that today's kids never see Gunsmoke and all the old goodies, Rawhide, Wagon Train, etc. Always a moral at the end of the story, usually a 'good vs evil', 'right vs wrong' theme in one form or another. ,
