Bruce Campbell in “Jack of All Trades”.

Now, I like Bruce Campbell. I thoroughly enjoyed “Brisco County, Jr.” and the Evil Dead trilogy, but this new show SUCKS!

Sad, really, when you think about Brisco County, Jr. It was, IIRC, the first in a long series of shows set in an historical time frame (the Old West, in the case) where the characters speak modern English and make sly references to modern day things.

I’ve tried to watch this new show, but I couldn’t get past the second episode. The writing is bad, and the performances forced.

I hope Bruce is being well-paid for this attrocity. When it’s cancelled (and it shouldn’t be long), Bruce should consider Evil Dead 4.

Oh, BTW, I won’t even go into the other half of the BACK2BACK Action Hour: Cleopatra 2525.

Personally, I think it has potential. Right now, though, I think it’s hampered by its 1/2 hour format. Spread it to an hour to allow for more plot, and it might work.
