In the late 1890s, Brisco is a tough-as-rawhide cowpoke, debonair ladies' man, and Harvard-educated smarty-britches who roams from Frisco to Jalisco in pursuit of outlaws who killed his legendary lawman father. He is hired by rich tycoons as a bounty hunter and teams up with their liaison, nervous lawyer Socrates Poole, and rival African-American bounty hunter Lord Bowler to hunt down the evil John Bly. Both sides are aided by mysterious, futuristic inventions and powerful, mysterious orbs.

Brisco! submitted by godzilla on July 10, 2016, 2:55pm Best Western/Sci-Fi/Comedy/Time Travel/Steampunk TV seriws ever!

Adventure! submitted by majean on August 19, 2018, 1:38pm I remember watching this when it premiered (same night as X-Files), and I was hooked from the first episode. Now I own the DVDs and introduce it to others who never saw it, and they all love it, too. This series is probably the root of why I like steampunk, so anyone who is also into steampunk will probably enjoy it, too.

Back in the day submitted by jibkidder on June 19, 2022, 5:54pm I used to get a Little Caesar's bucket of spaghetti and watch this before X-Files, I hadn't yet seen Evil Dead or anything like that yet. Would be fun to go back and revisit. This was before the internet, so when anything kind of weird showed up in mainstream entertainment it was pretty special. I mean, I guess there was an internet, but it was a very different one with people on it.
