Allisa you should read his second book. He went " undercover" to prep for a roll and he's at this country club completely in the loop everyone thinking he's some southern gentleman when a voice screams "ASH!" and he's busted by one of the waiters:)

I watched the pilot last night expecting the quality of picture that I got with Lois And Clark (another Warner release), which was good, but somewhat soft-looking, especially in the FX shots.
But to my surprise, it was very, very shiny! Not quite as good as Dark Angel, but much better than Lois And Clark. About equal to Buffy in most respects, but with less colour saturation (But then, Brisco was going for that washed-out old west look...).
The booklet has synopsis' of the eps WRITTEN BY BRUCE!

Keep checkin' the mailbox guys, this was worth the wait.

Chris here's the worst part...according to UPS it arrived in Salt Lake yesterday and yet they aren't delivering it today. Those weasels are waiting to deliver until tomorrow. THEY SUCK! They are holding my Brisco and Jack of All Trades hostage and they won't deliver it today even though they have it...argh!
Nice to know the quality is good :)

Nope I was in College during that time. A very conservative college with no TV. I think I was being trained to be an assassin. No I can't back that up.

Nope, never saw it. Apparently I missed out on something good.

Okay, bought, got it on Tuesday (Mail came and I heard the package hit the door. I was like "huh? what did I order?"

) and am now on the second disc.

I'm still a little skeptical, but it's growing on me. I did actually laugh at some stuff.

My question...how can there be 8 discs worth of episodes. It's only one season, right? And the eps are half hour or hour?

Each ep is 45 minutes (w/out commercials), and Brisco went a record 27 episodes for it's first and only season.

Been a while since I've of been on the boards, been too busy watching Brisco.

I was a little worried that over time I had sugar coated my memories of how great Brisco was, but no need to worry just as SHINY as I remember it! How can anyone not love Brisco? Now I can't stop humming the theme song, not that I mind.

Today I am all sadness. I finished Brisco as well as all the special features yesterday and all I can say is 'I want more.'

The only shiny spot is the discovery of Bruce Campbell. I loved Kelly Rutherford's comments in the Special features about him. How do you not fall in love with him? Now I've got to see Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, etc (although you will NOT get me near Xena).

C'mon, he's really good in Xena. As funny and cute and snarky as ever.
Army of Darkness is hysterical. Check anything Sam Raimi has done, chances are Bruce will be in it somewhere (even if he's just a "Shemp").
I haven't seen Bubba Ho-tep yet, but I hear he's really good in it!

Bruce played The King Of Thieves, and if memory serves, did about 2 guest shots per season, per series. Maybe a total of 6 or 7 eps all together.
The standout ep is in Hercules, when he stole a mystical stone that altered time, and allowed Bruce to play The King Of Thieves in the present, plus one from the past at the same time.
Hi-larious.

yes he also directed 12 of the first 24 episodes of Hercules...he used this fabulous sales pitch to the executive producers ( his best friends Rob Tapert and Sam Raimi) .."oh come on how bad could I be?"

EDIT_ Bubba Ho-tep is really good. Proves Bruce really acts well when he feels like it. It isn't typical Bruce Campbell fare so just remember that and don't expect his usually silly exhuberance
