Premise: A by-the-book cop drama that's energized by the considerable presence of James Arness, the long-time `Gunsmoke' star. Indeed, echoes of his Marshal Dillon infuse this character: an imperturbable, stalwart Southern California detective who makes no deals, wastes no words and never has to hit anybody twice.
