Help with the title of an 80's western/sci-fi show
I'm trying to remember the name of a tv show. It was on in the 80's, and as far as I can remember, the plot revolved around a bunch of cowboys who were transported through time to the present day. They became kind of like an A-Team group of vigilantes, if memory serves. I believe their time travel had some kind of explanation involving an Indian burial ground or something similar.
Anyone remember this show or am I going nuts?

YES! I remember that show too. I was a kid at the time but I remember them getting sent into future day Texas and getting terrified by an airliner flying over. Infact this is the first show I thought of when I read the thread title. I can't remember the name though so it's off to IMDB.

No it was on years before Brisco. Brisco is 90's.

I never saw this show, but it sounds great.
How is it that this classic isn't on DVD?
