Too low-brow for Bruce
28 March 2000
Oh man, was I disappointed. I'm a huge Bruce Campbell fan and was thoroughly looking forward to "Jack of All Trades" but was so upset after the first episode. What are Sam and Robert doing? Xena and Hercules were clever shows, they had adventure, drama and then subtle humor thrown in. The humor in each of them made the series wonderful. Unfortunately, it seems as if they're trying too hard to make "Jack" all humor and no drama, hence, has no substance. The humor is so childish, that I found myself bored. Besides that, most (90%) of Bruce's lines consist of cliches and one-liners that make him out to be a dim-witted horny-boy.

This is a very poor series with no substance, one plot (get Jack in bed with Emma) and very, VERY poor script writing for Bruce who is way too talented for this low-brow series. Bruce, you deserve better. Sam and Robert, you should be ashamed of yourselves for thinking up this junk.
