Midnox / Nope, Bruce Lee as Kato was more popular than Van Williams, the Green Hornet when we were kids. The episode in which he fought Mako was a BIG DEAL at that time. After this show, he become better known as Bruce Lee the fighting instructor on the TV series "Longstreet." Though still, it was another supporting role. Too bad he had to move overseas to play starring roles. He did, however, launch lifetime careers for a number of fighters and actors.

Good guys fighting good guys is a waste of time. There are more than enough bad guys out there to keep any crime fighters busy. I would have liked to have seen Green Hornet and Kato fight Batman's enemies! One time Robin decided to go at it alone vs three bad guys. They beat him up bad. I would have liked the following episode showing Kato going up against the same three bad guys (while Robin would be tied up in chair watching). After Kato beats the living daylights out of all three of them and the three bad guys are all on the ground knocked out cold ... Kato tells Robin "You see Robin ... That's how it's done!" LOL!!!!!

Which is why I would have liked to have seen more Green Hornet at this time period then Batman. Batman was too damn silly and outrageous, and appealed to children and the generation at the time that was inhaling LSD and other drugs like so much candy. Green Hornet was a more serious show, and I would have liked to have seen it continue. If it would have come on ten years later, it may very well have been on the air longer and had a good run. I was glad that Batman returned to his comic roots and became his darker, moody self in the nineteen-eighties. Every time I see this version of Batman on TV today when I flip the channel I cringe.

It was not a draw. Green Hornet and Kato made it very clear prior to the battle that they were going to "use good judgement" so as not to make Batman and Robin suffer. So it should be clear that they were not trying to beat up Batman and Robin. Green Hornet and Kato on purpose made it seem like a draw.

I and another kid won, because technically the Green Hornet ran for the door from the fight. But years later I realized if this was a real fight.

Burt Ward and Bruce Lee were very good friends in real life. They both lived in the same Apartment block with their then wives. They would often all go for dinner and lunch as a group of 4. Burt and Bruce often trained and boxed. Burt was a black belt in Karate. So no sissy either. Unfortunately in the 60's neither Bruce nor Burt could show to much realistic and violent action fights. Even with mild fight choreography many shots were edited out to water them down further. Both shows were shot at 20th Century Fox and all the shows being shot at that time 1966-67. Had the crew and cast go to each others sound stages to look at filming while they were on breaks. Batman, Green Hornet, Lost In Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the sea, Daniel Boone, Time Tunnel, to name just a very few in the golden age of TV.

Edgar Wiley Oh your quite right there. Bruce just trained and was so much more disciplined. But in TV and films they can script some character or actor to beat 10 fierce black belts not knowing anything about fighting.

@wordeye Жыл бұрын

all the boys in my tenement building and in school talked about and imitated Kato. It was always about Kato, and not the Green Hornet, Batman, or Robin. And we all practiced moves. Then when Bruce Lee's movies were in theaters, it seemed like everybody came out doing flying sidekicks! How do you think Carl Douglas came up with "Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting"? Then when we were in our teens in the '70's many actually did become students of the Martial Arts. The influence was and is still a global phenomenon, and Bruce Lee is still the leading iconic master.

if it was the comic book version of Robin, namely Dick Grayson the now adult aged Nightwing, then maybe, *maybe* he could be a match for Bruce Lee. Burt Ward's Robin, circa 1966, sorry no. does not compute. do not pass go, do not collect $200. well, you know what I mean...

No he was not a talented actor. Bruce's performance in the short lived show reshaped the identity of the green hornet. it became the running theme that Kato was actually the hero and the green hornet was the sidekick. It actually made the characters more interesting and less like batman and Robin.

It's well documented by Van Williams (Green Hornet) that Bruce Lee was almost ready to walk off the set if they were to be portrayed as "beat" by Batman & Robin.. Then, the directors decided to call it a draw.. Bruce Lee even in is own words in this clip, said KUNG FU is not child's play!!! He took it seriously. The show was not serious of course...
