Gunsmoke Winner Take All (1955–1975) watch online HD

This episode is a slightly twisted melodrama consisting of a manipulative woman who comes between two brothers. None of the guest stars are household names, but they all do a very good job.

Notable quotes: Relco:"Ain't you just a little bit out of your territory here Marshall?" Matt:"I take my territory with me and right now, you're in it."

This is a great episode for Festus fans. Ken Curtis (Festus) is still fleshing out the role that would become his signature. He is not yet Matt's Deputy and at the onset, he arrives in Dodge at the end of a cattle drive. He has some very funny scenes with Burt Reynolds as Quint and with Doc (Milburn Stone) and Kitty (Amanda Blake) at the Longbranch where they are introduced to a pearl button bangle billy of a Haggen Hunch at the Roulette wheel. Later on he saves Matt's life and they team up to defeat the bad guys, this is classic television.

I believe that the poor fellow that gets shot in the opening credits might be Ted Jordan, the same actor who would go on to portray the loud-mouthed Nathan Burke in the color episodes.

If you love Gunsmoke, this episode is the Nazz.

In this episode we have two brothers, Pinto and Curly Renner, that live on a farm their father left them. Pinto, being the older brother, has always kind of protected the younger Curly but now that Curly has meet a woman, Karen Dean, he has been wanting to prove that he is a man around the farm. When Curly gets back from selling a herd of cattle he refuses to give the money to Pinto saying that he will take care of the bills. Now there is a feud-like difference between the two brothers and Karen is right in the middle stirring the pot.

It will all come to a head when Curly and Karen decide to run away together taking the money with them. In the stable the two brothers meet but only one will be seen leaving the area. Matt will make a trip to a nearby town to bring one of the brothers, in the company of the Jezebel, to justice.

This was a nice story but left much about the brothers relationship untapped. It mainly centered around the young dance-hall girl, Karen, and the way she uses people to get what she thinks she deserves. With such as serious manner being discussed, the filler part where Festus gambles with Doc's dollar seemed way out of place in this episode. It took away from a serious drama and tried to insert some lighthearted humor that just did not help the show in the least. There is nothing wrong with the story it just left so much interesting material, about the brothers, untouched.

Gunsmoke is my all time favorite tv show but there some elements I abhored such as Festus's creepy over the top adoration of Matt and the ridiculodly tiny, delicte, fresh skinned ,shiny haited women of their old west...even the saloon girls! Oh, I know why they did it but in doing so they totally destroyed the authenticity of the show. This just another one of those so so scripts
