Jack of All Trades is so cheesy and warped that it's great. More Bruce Campbell one-liners per minute than any other venue.

Example from Episode II:

"He's a guy, the only honor he's interested in is JUMPING ... honor."

Also mixes a lot of contemporary terminology (and technology) with the period, moreso than Herc or Xena did. (Also a Sam Raimi production.)

And the opening theme and Bruce Campbell's face as he marches playing that drum makes me laugh every time. The episodes were only half an hour, so just when it starts to overflow it's done.

But with Bruce Campbell as the swashbuckling Daring Dragoon (imagine Zorro with cheesier one-liners and brighter colors) and his horse Nutcracker (for reasons made obvious), how can you go wrong?

"In 1801, the Revolution had been won, and Uncle Sam's favorite son had a job he needed done...

Which brought Jack to a lady, both beautiful and smart, who found his fix intriguing...A SCOUNDREL WITH A HEART!"

Need I say more?
