There's a reason that Gunsmoke ran for 20 seasons, it is one of the best shows ever. Me and my wife watch it everyday.

I love Gunsmoke & all westerns, just watched two episodes today - it’s a shame owners let this iconic movie set fall apart

My husband and I watch Gunsmoke almost every day. Some universally good lessons there.

Grew up watching Gunmoke.Still watch the rerun's.I agree,wish they could've preserved those buildings

How sad!!! I'm 55 and recall the afternoons after school when my dad would pick me up from sitter and we would watch this awesome western, and today my husband and I watch it every day after work. And James Arnez was gorgeous

What a wonderful historic set, Gunsmoke was the best show ever, I still watch it today! Great stuff!!!

Gunsmoke was a great show. I remember when I was a kid on the weekends i would go to my gramma and watch Gunsmoke and bonanza every Saturday night.

Watched Gunsmoke as a kid of the 50's and '60's,, and I am still watching reruns over and over to this day,, love that show,,

It's a shame these weren't saved for posterity.Loved that show and most of all the old shows they had messages of value.Unlike today where most tv is about who has the best put down or making people appear stupid.I believe the piece you asked to identify is the front steering axle of a supply wagon.Thanks for the fun vid. :)

Kane County, Utah has several well preserved buildings from several movies like the Outlaw Jossie Wells, Gunsmoke, Maverick, the Virginian, etc. And the tour of them on your own is free. It's a blast to visit.

I still watch Gunsmoke. Nice clean Family watching. Yes, it is a shame, that the site wasn't saved. Oh well, some people don't appreciate history. Thanks for showing. God Bless and Rest in Peace.. Marshall Dillon, Doc, Kitty, Chester, and Festus. You made a clean series, that the family could and can watch.

This is very sad.. im 25 but grew up watching gunsmoke and love the show mainly because my dad. I wish someone would have preserved this :/

When I was a kid during the 50s & early 60s, we watched Gunsmoke every week. I even remember when it changed from a 30 minute show to a full 1 hour program. As a kid, The Rifleman was my favorite show. But as I grew to adulthood, Gunsmoke became my all-time favorite TV show. 🐎🤠🐂🐴

I watch this as a child,and I am 54 years old now 2019.

I watched Gunsmoke many times back in the 1960s .great show , Kitty and matt the Sheriff

I love Gunsmoke!

Love Gunsmoke...I watch the reruns on TV LAND to this day. One of the best shows of all times. With all the junk that's on TV now, it's heartwarming to be able to watch the old episodes. Thanks for posting this video.

Terrible that that old Gunsmoke set was not took care of what a waste ! I always enjoyed Gunsmoke as a kid an still like to watch the reruns !

We have ALL !!!! 20 years of GUNSMOKE on DVD and LOVE IT !!! 👀❤ So Long !!! from Canada 🤠 - 3/23/23

I grew up with gunsmoke...i would love to c his spirit.i miss him n his crew.miss kitty...doc Addams...jester....newly....Quinn....n my old time fav.festes n sam.thanks for sharing

We went there maybe 15 years ago, up Johnson Canyon outside of Kanab Utah. It looks much more weathered than it did when we were there. However, we never entered past the gate because there were all these No Trespassing signs (maybe they were removed, later). Not too far away, towards Lake Powell, is the lost ghost town filming location, Pariah. Luckily we were able to also visit that place before it was destroyed by either fire or flood. It was totally cool and still 100% all there. The Outlaw Josey Wales was filmed at Pariah. When we visited it, there was no one else around. We got some neat video of the inside and outsides of the wooden buildings. So sad it's all gone.

Well I'll be an old Scutter. Good job..thanks for sharing your video. Doug

Marshall matt dillion mr dillion mr dillion, chester was great they all were back in the 1950' s & 1960's god bless gunsmoke and all the actors who passed away R.I.P.. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

Heart Wrenching Sad To See. Now I'm 66 years old. But Thank You Sir. In Sharing With Us Old Fans. I SALUTE You. Y I urge the only one I know of. That took the time to do such good work. Good Job !!!

I was there with my family 10 years ago. Many more buildings were standing (semi standing). It has really deteriorated a lot since then. So sad. Thanks for posting this.

Cryptid, sign on the other side the fence says, "You can cross the field for free but the bull charges."

Sad al things must end.. I’m 23 me and my pawpaw would watch this show all of the time. He passed in 16.. my grandma and my mom passed this year.. you learn to cling to the memories…

As a Gunsmoke and other Westerns fan, I thought this was super cool! Great find indeed! Thank you for the tour and I look forward to your other videos as well!

GREAT VEDIO WHEN I WAS LITTLE I WATCHED GUNSMOKE ALOT ME MY FAMILY 👍 ❤ DID

Miss Kitty, Sheriff Matt Dillon and Festus! Loved that when I was a kid.

i love gunsmoke..it's a miracle any of it is still standing.thank you for the video.

Cattle are naturally curious. And no, they don’t eat people, or meat.

Get there Cryptid. That's so AWESOME. Love the cows...Lo

You did a good job filming and narrating! Thanks for putting it here on You Tube! PS. Brought back some wonderful memories of Gun Smoke!

This should have been preserved can you imagine the people who would visit. This show is really popular in reruns with a whole new generation loving it.

Axle for wagon , looked like the front portion

Very awesome thank you for sharing. I loved gunsmoke

I found the set by accident back in 1998. It looks like it is more rundown even now. If you watch the movie Fire Creek you will see the town quite well.

thanks for doing this ... love Gunsmoke til today ....watch it all the time over and over

Intresting, movie sets ar'nt built for long lives. Surprised they are still around.

thanks for sharing this! I still watch Gunsmoke and this is awesome to see! thanks mate!

Co set. Thank you for sharing. That look like a wagon axel.

By far best show... my favorite anyways... loved Festus... doc was a badass old fella too

Thxs for sharing. My all time favorite western is fun smoke. Watch it all the time.

Property is often passed down to ungrateful heirs. All they care about is the cash. They don't care about how hard their family worked to obtain the land or it's historical value. Once they have pissed away the money there will be nothing left but regrets.

Those are young bulls. I enjoyed watching this.

Too bad they are not preserved..a lot of Gunsmoke fans are grieving include me....Gunsmoke is forever and I have ALL 635 episodes of it..Watch them back to back every night to these days...They don't make Westerns this good anymore and that is a shame....

Cool to see the old set. Thanks for sharing. A view from the past before mother nature takes it all away. Thanks.

Great vintage vlog thanks for sharing-really enjoyed it.

Wow, this is so awesome. love it.

One of my all time favorite shows

I still watch Gunsmoke. They are all gone but it feels like they are a still there. The cows are cute.

nice piece of western history.keep on the good work.a moroccan dutch viewer

Awesome location! Looks so real you'd think it was an actual town!

Thank you for making this. I absolutely love Gunsmoke.

My dad loved Gunsmoke" an all other westerns. RIP Dennis Mccoy

the one building that he called a school house has heavy 2 inch board walls and is set on a foundation, also has plaster and lath interior walls which are a ton of work to do. I do not think this is a movie set building as it is just too well built. Look at the floors, they are all in nice shape as is the roof. Look at the fireplace and it's rock hearth. None of the other buildings were built that well.

Great AWSOME JOB such a shame they where not saved as I loved all the shows aswell.

Thank you for sharing this...fantastic vlog. Those cows are famous now. Mooooo🐴

I was raised in Piedmont Mo and Ken Curtas had a summer house there. Me and 4 other kids from high school had the privilege of mowing his yard for the 4 years I was in high school. Got paid $100 each time we mowed it. Nicest guy you could ever meet.

I help build a couple of movie sets and we built them purely on the cheap. Only the front exterior was really supportive and built to look real. Honestly I'm surprised the lasted that long.

Best TV series ever! By the way, I just learned that James Drury of The Virginian is buried in a cemetery just down the road from where I live. May all those now deceased stars who brought us so much entertainment Rest In Peace.

Thanks for sharing. Loved to watch those old westerns!.

Thank you for honoring a one time great western show! I grew up with "Gunsmoke"!

VERY COOL MAN . VERY COOL.

Can't believe those cows wouldn't stop following you LOL

"Super wicked, ri-chere." You get best actor. The cows take best-supporting.

That would be the ultimate barn wood haul. You could make some cool stuff with that. Beautiful colors.

Super Awesome! I really love this show, and thank you for Tour!!! 🙌

Many cow friends you have there.. it's really neat these old places too bad they didn't keep up on these old places would of been great but nevertheless little that is remaining is still neat thank's for posting this👍👍

They are off an old Wagon.. Front or back axle. Thank you for making this, I appreciate it.

That was cool, Thanks for sharing the exploration of those old places!

I have owned, driven, and built wagons, and can tell you it's an old wagon axle. Interesting video...

I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE IN THERE. OWN THE WHOLE PLACE.

I like this guy. Does a good job producing this video.

Just found Gunsmoke on syndication. Love it!! And the cows! 🐮🤠

Thank you for sharing. Good video my brother.

I really like your stuff. Thank you for sharing them with all of us.

Wow, nice video glad you shared it with us and those cows following you around was funny.

In the Gunsmoke episode 'Drago' from 1971 with Buddy Ebsen you can see this old set when it's in a little bit better shape.

You can tell the smile he gives when you milk it😂

Dude, your editing is awesome. Even more so than 90% of most of these channels. You should be proud. Let me know if you ever get out the Maryland way and I will take you to a bunch of haunted and historic places. Also, let me know if you need some music for your channel. I’d be glad to make you some custom music or anything you need. Keep up the great work.

This is location #2 for filming gunsmoke, where the story required the actors to be in a different town. It has natural beauty and way out of major cities. The old residents of Kanab Utah still remember James Arness and others were hanging around their town.

Yes, they used it some, but for the most part the Dodge City set was a soundstage in Hollywood. That is why when Matt rides down the street on his horse he always turns a corner. Otherwise he would run in to a wall with buildings painted on it.

Watch the episode island in the dessert. It's at the end when festus and the character Ben snow walk into it. Those two connected buildings are in it. Cool stuff!

Lucky man I would love to see it.

So sad the set of this iconic western has gone to the cattle. I was born in 1950 and remember watching Gunsmoke on an old black and white tv in 1954 when I was about 4 yrs. old. I’m 69 now. Thanks for finding it. My dad looked a lot like James Arness.

My step dad John would have just loved watching this if he was still around.

I have watched many a western show on tv. I guess I don't have the imagination to see any show from these ruins.

Thanks for the vid. Brings back memories, sorry to see it crumbled, but it's been a long time.

Thank you! I can hear Chester screaming "MR. DILLION!! MR. DILLON!!

The best show. I watched it as a kid and now. My family does also. A shame they didn’t keep this up.

Just found your channel! I really enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing n I'll be coming back. Hello from Nevada, USA!

I still watch gunsmoke reruns I’ve been to Tombstone and believe me the OK corral is a lot smaller than I thought PS a ribeye sounds good right now

Loved it

One of my favorites..Gun Smoke !!!

The real Dodge city only had like 3 streets. Still stands today!

That would be a wagon axle

I love this video! Thanks for making it! LOL ~ ~ ~ those cows!
