Excellent Change of Pace

Not great but solid, a good change of pace from the usual fist fights and shootings from the now terribly arthritic, but still legendary Matt Dillon, AKA James Arness. The plot can be plodding but is still a good period piece, and gets a lift from two good character actors, Hale, the Skipper, and Tobin who was in a classic Twilight Zone episode. Above all, it's better than the absolute garbage on TV today.
