Plus Caridine is a prick ..... He stole Bruce Lee's concept of the series Kung Fu. I think it would have been a way bigger show if you had a Egg Roll travelling through the American West solving all the white mans problems. And if then adding subtitles for the non Chinese parts would have added to the home run it would have been.

Shirley, you only mean maybe Police Academy 1-3. Beyond that, and I was a teenage boy at the time, there wasn't much to gain from keeping up with the series. :unsure:

Racist 'Murka was to blame. Caridine was just better 'suited' for the part since he was white. Bruce Lee also scared the piss out of everyone when he came on the scene as Kato. :01:
Speaking of Caridine...lest we knot forget how he passed at the stroke of mid-night. :whistling

Ya Bruce was pretty scary with his black-eye facial mask.
Use to give me nightmares watching the green hornet on Beta-max.

It was a joke alternative Movie series , from banning any series with M-L G--SON , and if you watch movies 4-7 , you see how many actors started to get new rolls in movies or tv series.

Except that Kung Fu was as much about juxtapositioning Shaolin monk Caine's tranquility against the violence and I'm not getting much tranquility from Bruce Lee.

Since Caridine stole the role , we will never know the tranquility , or non violent side of Bruce (and I really don't give two shits about it anyways. LOL!!)
You can guarantee that if Bruce was the lead , the series would have lasted past the pilot instead of 3 seasons

Be that as it may, captain dense almost has a point.
I mean, it was Bruce Lee's idea to begin with, which the company stole from him.
Carradine probably didn't know until later.
What the story was about, I'd say, would thus be up to Lee. TBH, I think I'd have preferred Lee in the role. I saw old reruns as a kid, and found Carradine both boring and really out of place.
