Overview:
Jack of All Trades is a syndicated action-comedy show that ran for two seasons in 2000. Each episode is half an hour long. Together with Cleopatra 2525, it made up the Back2Back Action Hour. Both shows were notable because they were the first American action shows that weren't animated to be made in the half-hour format since the 1970s. In the middle of its second season, the show was canceled. The show takes place at the turn of the 19th century on the made-up island of Pulau-Pulau in the East Indies, which is controlled by the French. Jack Stiles is a secret agent from the United States who was sent there by President Jefferson. There, he meets the English spy Emilia Rothschild, who is his contact from Britain and the woman he likes. Together, they try to stop Napoleon and many other threats to the United States. The public sees Jack as Emilia's attaché, but when he needs to, he becomes The Daring Dragoon, a masked hero. There were many running jokes on the show, such as Jack being responsible for many important historical events but not getting credit for them, Emilia coming up with a miracle invention that was a clear deus ex machina, sexual puns and innuendos, and the ongoing romantic tension between Jack and Emilia.
