My favorite show when I was eight years old and it still holds up well

I really love this show.

Only 26 episodes, and Batman 120 episodes. It's F*****g Unbelievable.

Gary Owens as the newscaster at the end -- from Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In. "Beautiful downtown Burbank!"

RIP VAN WILLIAMS AND BRUCE LEE OUR BELOVED GREEN HORNET AND KATO

Back when you had a human being answer your phone, and you can tell the number by the dial.

The best acting i have seen of James Best

This is the only episode where Kato uses the Hornet Sting. Same for the Black Beauty's smokescreen.

Notice the green hornet came out mostly at night. Now batman was pretty much running around in broad daylight. Makes sense since Britt was shown actually doing a job on regular basis. Just once couldn't they show Bruce doing something other than waiting for commissioner Gordon to call

It's funny that they would beat up the Green Hornet and not take the opportunity to unmask him.

one thing I always liked about this show "besides seeing Bruce Lee kicking a$$* was they never revealed the name of the city...with Batman you always knew it was Gotham City.

I still say that the best actor in this series was the car

I love the show as a child so disappointed it only had one season

This show gave BRUCE LEE the Exposure he deserved. Too bad the bean counters didn't realize how to market it and cancelled the show because it took away from the Batman Tv show.

Green hornet uses an EMP (electro magnetic pulse) device that works within 10 feet.. superb arsenal item !

RIP James Best

I like this show

Very good episode, helped by the presence of a sexy Lynda Day (soon to become Lynda Day George) and James Best, of "Dukes of Hazzard" fame (or infamy, depending on your point of view about that show).

Green Hornet would make a better movie than Batman

At 20:06 KATO ~ "Where are you?" Such concern and loyalty from The Green Hornet's ever faithful protector Kato!

I was surprised that Mike never figured out that Britt was the green hornet

Hey! The dude who was the boyfriend of the girl is the same guy as "Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane" on Dukes of Hazzard!

Hey! Linda Day George! Of Mission Impossible fame! How did I not have a crush on her!

A classic in special effects. Especially with the black beauty flipping up.

Childhood memories.

Van Johnson's Green Hornet fight scenes are way better than Seth Rogan's. :)

Every time I would find a show I loved the networks would cancel it after just one season.

James Best.. Played on several westerns, the Andy Griffith Show (a guitar 🎸 player & most notable as "Sherrif Roscoe P. Coltrain" on the Dukes of Hazzard...

The woman at the answering service was beautiful wow she was smoking hot

Mick always blamed the Green Hornet for what he did not do, now he can taste what if feels like.

RIP, Van Williams.

RIP Mr Williams; you were the best

Now why would the Green Hornet have gone into the warehouse w/o Kato?

BingCherry11 BingCherry11 1 year ago (edited) @jackjaws Few people had an appreciation of martial arts at that time. A friend of mine who studying Karate always made a big deal about Kato's fighting skills and he ask me to pay close attention to the fight scenes of Batman and Robin and Green Hornet and Kato. Batman was a better fighter than Green Hornet true. But the fighters such as the Joker who often times would grab Robin by the throat and start choking him and making Robin cry out "Help Batman" ... Kato would have broken the Jokers arms and legs if he were to fight him. But in those days little kids preferred seeing Batman. My friends 6 year old son told me "I know that Kato is a better fighter I can see that. But, I still like Batman more!!!" And then he said something to which caught me by total surprise. He told me "But, remember, Superman is a best fighter of all!!!" Lol!!!!

IMO the over use of dark filters to simulate night was one of the reasons the show didn't make it. In 1966 when a lot of people still had b&w tv's it must've been almost impossible to see.

@15:11 the telephone answering service is actually using a real life operator whom might me taking down messages from any caller. That is interesting. Compare nowadays which has voicemail at the end of the ring tone. :)

That's an AMC Marlin the baddies are driving. I haven't seen one in years.

That's Annazette Chase AKA China Doll From "The Mack". 💯

Annazette Williams the telephone operator, Majorly Hot :)

Now we know how Rosco ended up in Hazard.

So many punches but no bruises thereafter.

Green Hornet: Episode 12. Season 1. Episode 12. "Deadline for Death". Monday, February 6 - 2023.

Rotary desk phones and switchboard operators...damn, I'm old.

GodDAMN but Lynda Day was gorgeous!

This one has Roscoe P Container as the villain

Do we even have answering services anymore?

Yale, while making out with the girl (possibly): "Eh, cue-cue-cue, I love it, I love it!"

Sheriff Roscoe O. Coltrane! This was so much better than that stupid movie

Those are some awfully dark shadows for it to be night outside. 😆

At 0:46, is that the Bat Signal flashing in the sky?

How are you gonna let yourself get beat up with your sidekick Bruce Lee sitting outside in the car??? 😳

This series used too dark a filter on the camera you can't see Bruce's action

wish they'd done the fight scenes in the light so you could see them.

Wonderfully bad in so many ways. Btw thats flight of the bumble bee in the theme. No hornet of any colour

Stop or I'll shot, 1966, today, Run so I can.

This is only one season ?

I love the show, but it appears that in nearly every episode the exterior shots were filmed under the cover of deep afternoon.

James Best did great job?

cool show. just wondered with the set so dark how many times did they trip over stuff. lol. enjoyed better than Batman.

The operator was a honey.

Is that Don Pardo doing the radio broadcast at the end?

Mike...lol

this is reail bruce lee?

roscoe p Coltrane is the bad guy

💓

😮😮

..."former,"...,.? ...(that would be a some sort of something wouldn't it...,.)

👍😀

If they were naive to give Batman 3 seasons.They coulda gave GreenHornet 3seasons also..

Ignorant executives that canceled this series short.

Urulu

I watched this when I was kid, seen all of them including this one! to bad they replaced kato ( bruce lee) with the other. I thought bruce made a better kato!

The whole car-chasing-a-plane scene made no sense. Why cut off the plane's engines for a little smoke? Neither did Britt telling Kato to wait in the car while Britt sneaks around the hanger trying to be a big James Bond-type hero. I like the acting. Van does okay with his lines, and Bruce Lee is a marvel to watch. However, while the the writing was decent initially, it got really goofy towards the end. What a shame, the series had so much potential. But it was like Star Trek, which the brain-dead network bozos also cancelled around the same time. Only Star Trek was given a little more time and better writing to hook its audience.

BRUCE LEE💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Mike is always doing something goofy, so goofy it's annoying

This show HAD to fail. It was a violent, adult show, unsuitable for the kids who just watched batman and Robin. Lee and Van DESTROYED the show with their acting.
