Marshal Matt Dillon (then-newcomer James Arness) tries to prevent lawlessness from overtaking Dodge City, Kan. Helping to keep him grounded are saloon proprietor Miss Kitty Russell and Doc Adams. The television series grew out of the long-running radio serial of the same name, although for a short time they were both on the airwaves.

DMZABO 11/14/2023 Marshall Matt Dillon is a decent Marshall for the town of Dodge, Kansas who keeps the peace. Matt Dillon runs a right ship and has no reason to take any crap from the bad guys. This show revolves around a handgun of regulars. A female saloon owner, a doctor, jail helper, and a few other locals that make up the town of Dodge.
