At this time, Foster was very busy before her big breaks when she came to the speeches on many television shows. She did everything: from Adam-12 to “Bonanza” and even “Parridge Family”. There were several shows to which she returned, for example, “The courtship of her father Eddie” and “Paper Moon”, but it was West CBS Western “Gunsmoke” Where each of her three speakers were different characters.
The introductory entrance entrance to Dodge City arrived in the episode for the 15th season “Roots of Fear” as a young Susan Sadler. This is not a very big role on the surface, but its presence is significant.

Sadler’s family makes a difficult decision to break into the bank at night and take them, but it creates only more problems than they thought. Foster is crucial as an innocent voice of the mind that calls on one of the Sadler, so as not to pursue further violence when Marshal Matt Dillon (James Arnes) face.

The following is a gentle festive episode, which could so easily bend over to Mawkish Sentimentality, but actually brings the depth of Central Kurmud. Mrs. Brondy reduces the concept of Christmas in the eyes of children because she does not want them to feel the same mental pain she faced. When she was younger, the chief director of the asylum grew up in a deeply religious community and grew up not once to gain full experience from that. Ms. Brondy can’t even use government donations to give them a good Christmas due to the fact that they go on the provisions.

Of her three guest spots, Gunsmoke, it has the least for Foster. It mainly combines with the other six children. Although it became the most famous from the pile, the team has some other famous names such as Erin Moran (“Happy Days”) and Willy Aams (“eight enough”). The episode mainly rests on the vulnerability of Nolan, which comes under its tempered shell, except for the warm generosity of the Elam. There is also a wonderful launched gag, where it continues to run away the deputy fest (Ken Curtis) without problems.
Young Jodi Foster believes that a wild dog can tame
Last but not less important, Foster marks its last role Gunsmoke guests only through five episodes with “The Predators”. Here she plays Mariana Johnson, a young girl with a repetitive hero of Obelia Johnson (Jacqueline Scott). Earlier, the character was played by Susan Olsen of Gaddy Bunk’s glory. It is worth noting that Brian Morrison, who plays his brother Jonathan, not only played an orphan in the Christmas episode, but was also converted to actor Mike Durkin.

On the way to the accuracy of the revenge, he is confronted with Johnson’s children trying to tame a wild dog, which he believed that he had previously been missing. Cain’s mission goes by detour when Jacqueline breaks with him, inviting him to stop at the family farm for a while.
Foster can do more here because Marieanne essentially has a parallel story with the mother. While Abel helps to tame a rough man with a soft interior, she does the same with Dobby’s dog. Throughout the episode of Marianne and Jonathan try to show that the figure has something good that is forcibly.
