An
old sea captain and his mate living like they did on the open seas - except
just outside of Dodge City. Supposedly a comedy, the premise and plot
are so bad they hurt your feelings.
On
television, Richard Basehart (Captain Sligo) starred in the Voyage
to the Bottom of the Sea. He won an Emmy in 1965. This episode of Gunsmoke wins him a golden turkey.
The
show was directed by William Conrad who played Marshal Dillon on radio's Gunsmoke.
