Hey, I Remember This Show: The Cisco Kid

Many of my older cousins just loved this show. Unfortunately, the closest I ever got to getting involved with it was agreeing to wear a straw hat like Pancho's every Halloween -- and even then the main reason I wore it had more to do with my parents' not being able to afford store-bought costumes than any actual interest in the show.

That said, I cannot help but wonder if I was a bit hasty in judging it. Moreover, I wonder what author O. Henry -- the creator of the Cisco Kid -- would think of this version of his character. I would like to think he is flattered.
