Actually, surprisingly enough Brisco got a big promo push from FOX. It came out the same season X-Files did and FOX thought that Brisco was going to be their big hit for the season and put a lot of promo around it. I guess most viewers just weren't cool enough to 'get' Brisco. 
Actually as I remember it Brisco got fairly good ratings but FOX said the viewership didn't quite outweigh the cost. To bad fan campaigns weren't as common back than, it might have been saved, because it was sort of boarderline if I remember correctly.

I swear I have finally figured out how shows get cancelled on fox. If they are smart, well written, quirky, have unknown actors, and are backed by creative geniuses who are fairly well known, and there are no side stories of infidelity, backstabbing, and revenge, then fox will cancel the show. ( the only bizzare and inexplicable exception being the x-files, which survived due to Chris Carter's pull with two key fox execs)
I have taken to watching Brisco on Saturday mornings to give me that glow of the Saturday morning serial western/Bruce Campbell fix
Chris- have you bought the book yet, or do I have to start quoting again?

I refuse to answer on the grounds that it may have me reading quotes.
Kidding, love the quotes Chrisisall

We applied the cortical electrodes but were unable to get a neural reaction from either patient.

Cheapest one is still almost $60 US, plus whatever shipping would be. Convert that to Canadian and suddenly you're in the neighbourhood of $80-something on a good day. Money I don't currently have.
Not worried, though, price'll go down eventually. I can just be patient.
Meanwhile those two anime box sets that I can get on Ebay for <$40 are looking mighty tempting. . .

I was lucky; I bought it the day it came out, on sale for $70...I woulda paid the full $100 for it though, seein' as the season's got 27 episodes to it!
I actually sold my Chosen Collection to get the funds...I bought it and BTVS season 7, and have been purchasing more Buffy seasons as time goes by (and as finance permits
