This two part episode is the best in the series thus far, and pretty much proves that the show needed an hour of run time to let the stories breathe.

This two part episode is the closest The Green Hornet Series came to resembling a Batman episode. It is very colorful. Billy May did a great job on the incidental music! Very Jazz oriented and moody. I recently bought a Al Hirt album called "The Horn Meets The Hornet." I was fortunate to find a sealed stereo copy for $35:00. On the album's cover is a very cool picture of Al Hirt holding his Trumpet with Van Williams/The Green Hornet holding his Hornet Stinger both men smiling. I was 9 years old when the show premiered and would collect Green Hornet gum cards and stickers. Those were the days!

It was often found during editing that Bruce Lee was making moves faster than the camera could film them. He was constantly being reminded to slow down so his moves could be seen by the viewers. Something he tried to do, but always had trouble in doing.Ever had something accidently knocked off a table or desk top, and then you caught it when it was falling, without even having to think about doing so? That's how fast he could move.Simple the best ever!

yes , yes Bruce was fast but all action has to be slowed down so the audience can see it.

@ronjeffrey8641 4 жыл бұрын

If you watch a lot of the fight scenes you'll notice Lee's martial arts skills were still developing, he often fights to regain balance after a kick. And in several episodes his skill with weapons leave a lot of room for improvement specifically the episodes "The hunters and the hunted" and "Preying mantis"

Bruce's speed was faster than a Camera's shutter speed, it's shown in the long beach footage where he's showing the striking power, and you see the flash going off later than his reflexes

Even as a kid when the show originally aired I recognized that Van Williams was hunk material, he and Wende were a "super " couple waiting to happen and the one and only Bruce Lee, too bad ABC decided not to stick with it awhile longer, loved it and Batman, forever a piece of my 60s childhood..

Though I don't wanna take anything away from Bruce Lee cause he was pretty cool and he made the show popular, not enough credit goes to Van Williams after all he was the star of the Green Hornet Mr.Williams you were a much better Green Hornet then Seth Rogan you will be missed.

That was the coolest punch i think i've ever seen Bruce Lee use at 12:23.Beat that Chuck Norris! It's so funny that rock music gets hammered for subliminal messages yet classical is the culprit in this episode.Play some Paganini and people will do stuff like fucking everything that moves and punch out their bosses at work.oh the horror of it all.

bogiewheelman71 The ratings just weren't big enough to sustain it on the air, BoogieWheelMan. ABC wanted another Batman on their hands, but because the show was done in a straight forward style, while Batman was done for laughs, ratings for The Green Hornet dipped after the 5th episode and never recovered.

Thanks so much for presenting this series. I haven't seen it since 1966. It came on Friday nights at 8pm. Unfortunately for me, the Wild Wild West came on at the same time. I would watch Green Hornet, then turn on Wild Wild West and catch the last 30 minutes.

So far this is my favorite episode, and another example of how The Green Hornet and Kato are totally badass! After they blow up the armored truck driven by heartless killers, the Hornet and Kato run up to the truck which is in flames: GH: "Nothing we can do here." Kato: "Yep." And they get back in the Black Beauty (the rolling arsenal) and take off. AWESOME!!

Curious production style. The outside scenes were filmed during the day, but with filters to make it look like night time. This dark style was intentional, also allowed the great Black Beauty car to have those green lights. Still, it's all very dark and sometimes we could just see more detail.

@BingCherry11 3 жыл бұрын

In the chase scene after the armored car the Batmobile's Bat Ray would have proven to be extremely effective. Batman would fire a continuous beam that would move left to right faster than the armored car could move to avoid it. And the beam could blow out its rears tires and burn through the car's armor like a red hot knife cutting through a stick of butter!!!!! Kato has to add this weapon to Black Beauty's arsenal!!!!!

You all seem to forget about the way Hollywood treated Bruce Lee. The raceism and other bullshite he was facing was why he went back to Hong Kong to make movies his way. And Van was a part of it 👏

@skgord1 Жыл бұрын

Bruce wasn't getting offered that many roles. At the time Asian were rarely seen on tv or films. It was Bruce's idea to do the Kung Fu tv series, but they felt he was too Asian to be lead on tv. The role was given to David Carradine. He went back to Hong Kong and at the time he didn't realize The Green Hornet became a big hit on Hong Kong. they called it the Kato show. That's when he was offered to make films in Hong Kong and became international star.
