The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.

The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. was a short-lived western television series with science fiction elements, starring Bruce Campbell as Brisco County Jr., an ex-Harvard lawyer turned bounty hunter. It could be considered a thematic descendant of the 1960s show The Wild Wild West. It was one of the few western shows aired in the 1990s.

In addition to Campbell, the show also starred Julius Carry as his rival/partner Lord Bowler (a.k.a. James Lonefeather), and Christian Clemenson as Socrates Poole. Kelly Rutherford guest-starred in several episodes as Dixie Cousins. It ran for 27 episodes from August 27, 1993 to May 20, 1994 on the FOX television network on Fridays at 8pm, otherwise known as the Friday night death slot, just before The X-Files which also made its debut in 1993.

Though the show only lasted one season, the series' majestic theme song composed by Randy Edelman found a new life as part of NBC's sports productions, namely during NBC broadcasts of the World Series and the Olympic Games.

The show was later broadcast in syndication airing on the US cable channel Turner Network Television (TNT) from January 1996 to January 2001 although it is still broadcast occasionaly. The series is schedueled to be released on DVD in 2005-2006.
