7/10
How did that happen?
12 June 2013
If you have the Jack of all trades, you actually should be winning, right? Seems the correct answer was ... yes and no. Yes in regards to the comedy and how it seems to come across to a lot of people, but not when it comes to ratings. It's incredible, how this show (as is true with some others, Brisco County being one Bruce Campbell was involved with too) did not make the cut. Or rather was cut. And what a cut. I watched the "whole series", which actually seems to be missing an end of the season (22 episodes suggest, that at least 2 episodes went AWOL).

Which brings me to the point of my rating. I actually would have given this at least an 8/10. But you are left hanging without a (re)solution, which makes this at least a bit weak. And I had to add this to the whole mix. The humor, which while "contemporary" (meaning the lingo being used was rather from the 21st century), does hit the spot and does not disappoint at all. It doesn't even completely get you out of the historical context of the movie. Even the mixing of real characters with fictional events is a lot of fun (which is more than intended).

If you can let your guard down (excuse the pun), than you will have a great time watching the 20+ minutes episodes (without commercials) on Disc!
