The corruption of politics, woman's roles, the pain, pride and conflict following the civil war, a non-drinking Marshall who thinks before he shoots - this is a gem from the 50's.
I also enjoy so many of the faces that briefly appear that also came into their own fame in coming years.
Very impressed with the scriptwriters of the show.
This review is based on the first 13 shows of the first season.
