Analyze and write about what stereotypes you saw in the television show, one of the most popular shows of its time.

In gun-smoke i did notice something very quickly a "stereotype" if you will, as soon as it got into town it was a dessert town with tumbleweeds around and when it got into the bar everyone was drinking and fighting, with floozies around to keep them company. That was just 5 minutes in the show how many stereotyped things the west had going for it. I did laugh every time there was a fight in the old saloon ( which was many times ) it was just funny how the west was being represented as a drunken old beet down place. which I'm not saying there wasn't any fights back then but towns back then were mostly mining towns with a few places made for it to be a livable place so it would be more dull then constant action. It was also funny how the main characters for that episode always knew how to fight, almost every person on the show knew how to fight, which is yet another stereotype. So in conclusion this show is just chalk full of a bunch of different stereotypes, which in my opinion, is hilarious.
