Seen every episode. The good thing about all those old shows they usually had a life lesson in them. Bonanza is another classic I’ve seen all of those too.

I've gotten hooked on listening to the radio version that ran for 10 years. Makes the work day go by.

Remember an interwiev with Arness some years ago. He talked about
his contribution in WW2. Months and months of training, got shipped
over to Europe. Stormed the beach at Ansio, got shot in the leg a few
yard up the beach and was carried away and sent home to US so that
was his 15 minutes in the war ;D
