I am so happy that Astrid's half-brother is named Niels, taking part of his father's last name as his first name.

I think it was wonderful on the writer's part not to have given him the name Angus.

I just discovered this show recently, and have been binge watching it. Character development is something rarely done as well as it is done here. Every character has changed in some way over the series, and all the changes seem natural.

I have been recommending Astrid to everyone since I discovered it. Unfortunately, I'm halfway through season four already. I'll just have to start over again when I finish.

This movie was released in 1956, which means it was made in 1955, or even 1954. The first episode of Gunsmoke aired in September of 1955. I would imagine it was the last film James Arness made before Gunsmoke. You can see a lot of the Dillon character in the Remington Anderson character. As others have mentioned, all the other actors are familiar to those of us who watched westerns on television in the 50s and 60s. It's always fun to see familiar actors in different roles, good guys playing bad guys, bad guys playing good guys. All in all, I thought it was a good example of the 1950s westerns.

There were two episodes with the title Reprisal, this one in season 7, episode 23, and one in season 14, episode 20. TV Guide sometimes gets them confused and puts the wrong summary. The season 7 one is where a woman wants to kill Matt after he shoots her husband. The season 14 one is where a man is suspected of killing Doc when Doc helps an injured killer instead of the man's wife. Also, the season 7 episode is in black and white, the season 14episode is in color. The best line in the season 7 one is when Kitty says. " Matt's a man with no strings on him. Let's just say he's more mine than anyone else's."
