Leonard Nimoy's Gunsmoke episode
There I was last night, doing housework, when a friend called at 10 minutes to 8 and said that if I got the Starz western channel I should turn it on to see Leonard Nimoy as an Indian in an episode of Gunsmoke.
Much to surprise, my cable company had that channel, so I tuned in. No Nimoy. I figured I'd missed him, but I stuck it out the whole 10 minutes and there he was! Covered with brown face makeup, raising Spock-like eyebrows and intoning cliched "Indian" phrases.
I think this is the first time I’ve seen Nimoy stand next to someone who made him look short.
I also think this is the first time I've seen Gunsmoke, but I may have deleted the memory from my brain.
I missed this scene, but found it on Youtube:

(And where did the coins come from after all?)
I don't know where the coins came from as I didn't see any more of the episode than this clip and the final ten minutes. But it looks like, from another post, that the whole thing is online, so I may watch more of it to catch his scenes.
And then, while watching, part of me expected James to come run through the doors to credit him evry second now :)
Thnx for posting thise scene - I hadn't seen it yet!!
