It's about as historically accurate as a fourth grader's cowboy story, but hey, I like it that way. Plus I'm a huge Bruce Campbell mark. Anyone else like this show?

Yeah, Brisco is awesome.
I have to admit I'm a sucker for anything Bruce Campbell too.
Lord Bowler is my hero.

Uncle Bruce's coolest TV effort, no doubt. He's cool in Burn Notice, but Brisco was just a fun show. Corny as hell, but that's what made it great. Plus, that Dixie girl was goddamned hot.

Brisco was awesome, I watched it when it first aired. And I'm ashamed to say it, but I had no idea who Bruce Campbell was at the time.

Same, Syd. I had seen Army of Darkness in theaters, but I still didn't really know who it was.

I didn't know who he was then either. I think that at that age I might not have been ready for the grandness that is Bruce Campbell. It would be like staring at the sun.

To me, Bruce Campbell will always be Autolycus from Hercules/Xena.
I did enjoy the reruns of this show, though. And it's no coincidence that HWA's Army of Darkness has the same name as a Campbell film.
Also, I still wish Jack of All Trades wasn't cancelled, while Cleopatra 2525 was lengthened to an hour. God, that show sucked. Thankfully it was cancelled a year later.

Jack of all Trades was never even given a fair shot. In my area the only time it was on was around 11 pm.

Thankfully, the channel that syndicated it here in Chicago played it on weekend afternoons, just like they did for Hercules and Xena. When it was cancelled, they started showing Cleo around 11 instead though, just like for you.

jack of all trades could have been so much better. I have it on DVD and it hurts to watch how it slowly degrades to nothing but cameo appearances and dick jokes.
I think they should have used bruce as teh dragoon less, and concentrated more on the fact that he's a super spy.
also lord boewler is the man.

Carlton Cuse was the reason that show rocked.
