Bruce Campbell on NPR

I somehow came across NPR and stopped to listen to a different news story. Suddenly, NPR started this interview and I was able to catch the whole thing. I'm glad I didn't change the channel. Bruce is the best!

Talk of the Nation, June 4, 2009 · As Sam Axe on cable channel USA's Burn Notice, Bruce Campbell plays the disreputable sidekick to the hero. In conversation with Neal Conan, he said he's enjoying being on a show "that has ratings."

You may also remember Campbell as the star of numerous B movies — think Man With the Screaming Brain. He's now directed and produced his own B movie, My Name is Bruce. He built the Western town featured in the film on his own property out of dead timber, and calls it "a very Little Rascals affair."

Of the film, which didn't hit most movie major theaters, he says "it wasn't released, it escaped."
