Brisco had Maverick like qualities

donb8

I liked this series and was surprised when it was canceled. Similar to the original Maverick TV series "Brisco" did not take himself too seriously. Some of the lighter Maverick episodes were spoofs of Bonanza where a "Hoss" like character was usually the victim of Bret Maverick's plots and schemes. A spoof of a real life character on Brisco County, and the episode that gave me the biggest laugh, had an Elvis like sheriff with long side-burns and dark glasses who ate hamburgers and whose lines in the show were taken from some of Elvis's biggest hit songs. Also, like Maverick with his two brothers (Bart and Bert), I thought that the supporting cast of characters on Brisco County was great and that they contributed much to the series. I look forward to DVD release of this series.
