Huge thanks to [livejournal.com profile] thisisbone for the tip: Amazon is having a DVD sale, and right now The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. is for sale at $39.99. The lowest price I've ever seen for this series's DVD set is $79.



Starring: Bruce Campbell, the late, great Julius Carry, Christian Clemenson, Kelly Rutherford, John Pyper-Ferguson, Billy Drago, and John Astin.

Action sci-fi western comedy! Lord Bowler! Socrates Poole! Dixie! Professor Wickwire! The Swill family! John Mutherfuckin' Bly! Pete Hutter!

"You touched Pete's piece! Nobody touches Pete's piece!"

COMET, THE HORSE OF WONDER!

"You'll have to excuse Comet. He doesn't know he's a horse."

It is in good company as one of FOX's "hell, let's just cancel it" shows. (Trivia - Bowler's sawed-off rifle was re-used in Firefly--it's Zoe's rifle.)

Watch the opening titles here.

I so ordered it.

(One-Degree-Of-Kevin-Bacon fact: my cousin, Randy Edelman, composed the theme music, which NBC then bought to use as their Olympics theme.)

Every time I hear that Olympics music I am amazed that more people don't remember it as the Brisco County theme song. And how cool that your cousin wrote it!

I'm devastated to learn about Julius Carry, however, who apparently died from pancreatic cancer (which is what killed my dad, too).

I'm still so upset that Julius Carry will never appear on Burn Notice. I'd been hoping he'd show up as Sam's old spy buddy since the first episode.

Wait, what? Late great Julius Carry? I did not know that. Crap. Now I'm even more depressed.

Yeah - just last year, I think.

He passed in August, right around the same time as Bernie Mac and Issac Hayes, IIRC.
