The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.
Smile. You're about to meet your new hero.
Created by Carlton Cuse, Jeffrey Boam
On FOX
A gleefully anachronistic Western adventure comedy that pairs period setting with sci-fi absurdity and treats its own premise as a joke.
A tough-as-rawhide cowpoke, debonair ladies' man and Harvard-educated smarty-britches roams from Frisco to Jalisco in pursuit of outlaws who killed his father...and in search of a mysterious orb possessing out-of-this world powers. Hot lead and cool anachronisms await Brisco as he and his sidekicks - including Comet, the intellectual equine who doesn't know he's a horse - fight for justice in the way, way, way-out West.
