James Arness – Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke

November 29, 2011 in Sexy Older Men

One of the sexiest cowboys to ever hit the small screen was James Arness who starred in the long-running series Gunsmoke as Matt Dillon, from 1955 to 1975.  Gunsmoke, to date, is the longest running primetime drama.  And, Arness is the tallest actor to ever play a lead role at 6’7″.  Now that’s a lot of cowboy.

My father was obsessed with Gunsmoke, as well as any other western that happened to be on TV.  As a result, for many years, I hated watching any westerns.  Now, I am able to appreciate them and often watch reruns of Gunsmoke.  Thanks Dad!
