My grandpa has all the old Bonanza and Gunsmoke shows on DVD, maybe I should screencap them for IMFDb.

I personally wish I had more episodes of The Rifleman, I loved that show. I only have like two in a special westerns TV pack.

I have one episode of the Lone Ranger (because my Grandpa stocked up on VHSs long ago, so none of those can help me much) and personally it was a terrible episode. He shot cups off the branch of a tree, to show how "true" a silver bullet could fly from about 20ft. Ah, I love the old westerns.

Inside my 16-year-old self is an old man, minus the racism, prejudice, and ignornance that resides in my actual old man grandpa.

You know the pages for Bonanza and Gunsmoke, if you chronicle every instance or usage by a different actor of a particular gun, the pages will be MASSIVE since those shows lasted so long......

I know PhoenixEnt is the expert on B&W or Film Noir or B&W War movies. Who is our resident WESTERN expert on IMFDB?

EDIT: GM45, why are you still UP? It must be 3:00 AM New York time right now!!!!!!!! The reason why I'm still up is that I'm on call for a movie shoot and they're going to call me to the set one hour before they film weapons, which will be sometime between 2:00am and 5:30am California Time.

I'm nocturnal. It is indeed 3:00 in the morning, and being a 16-year-old in the middle of summer, this is my time to relax and be alone. Sleep isn't too important, and I'll probably be woken up at about 2:00 to help my dad tommorow, but it's all good.

And based on the number of westerns I've done for IMFDb, may I possibly take the honors?

Have you done any Nam pages? I think most of us are kinda war experts.

I'm doing We Were Soldiers. I'm going to do in the near future Full Metal Jacket too. I'm also exposed my vast Vietnam War knowledge on various talk pages.
