because I have nothing else to watch

After enduring [livejournal.com profile] heykidzcomix' incessant nagging*, I found the Brisco County DVD set last night. Watched the pilot with commentary. I am a better human being now.

Mom had a giant girlcrush on Dixie Cousins, and it's hard to blame her. She also always felt it necessary to point out that Brisco's dad was buried on a hill "for the drainage," then cackle like a fiend. Strange woman.

So far, the best thing is learning that the Rocket Car was a functioning vehicle that could shoot 30-foot jets of flame. Carlton Cuse volunteered to ride it back to the roundhouse after shooting, which must surely have been the best thing ever.


*She said, "Hey, did you get it?" The NERVE!

I loved that show. My stepdaughter had a crush on Bruce Campbell. *g* I liked it because it was a sci-fi Western and it was funny, and I love sci-fi Westerns, which is why I wanted to love Firefly and just... couldn't, quite.

Firefly loves itself, a lot. Brisco loves us.

Amen.

Speaking as a Firefly fan...yeah, that's pretty much true.
