Okay this proves the Black Beauty is a million times better than the Batmobile. Bulletproof, rocket launchers front & back, a mortar, the scanner/drone, can release Hornet Gas, a PA system, rigged for silent running, the carphone. And she's a helluva lot more realistic than Wayne's ride

Not to mention their scanner (drone) was probably the 1st to ever be seen in a TV show or movie. - This show was for sure waaaay ahead of it’s time. I still can’t get over how short-lived it was & would like to finally see a reboot of this series instead of more TGH movies.

@@valiredavis2534 The audience had essentially been "dumbed down" by the "campy" Batman and were expecting that again instead of the drama/seriousness of the Green Hornet. It was only after it ended after only one season that it gained a following in syndication and was appreciated for how much better it was than Batman

…And to think that Ford and BMW actually approached the producers of the 2011 film so that one of THEIR cars could be used as The Black Beauty!! What a Joke !! Even though Chrysler Corporation’s IMPERIAL DIVISION no longer exists, the IMPERIAL luxury automobile has become so ICONIC, and so identified with the GH and KATO, , that NO PRODUCER would DARE using ANY OTHER CAR to be their BLACK BEAUTY!!!

It was good how they fleshed out Mike's character when he tells Britt about needing to show the younger reporters who snicker at him that he's still a top notch journalist. It gave Mike dimension and a touch of poignancy.

maybe not a "live-action" show but the animated series "Jonny Quest" lasted only one season (1964-65) and is remembered as one of the most realistic and best-written animated series of all time-it ended because the budget was huge to make it and ABC wanted the show's creator Doug Whaley to "cut corners" to save money--he refused and so it was canceled (although it had great ratings)

@Dallin456 9 ай бұрын

I know, love seeing them. They also bring back a funny memory. When my wife and I moved with her three children into the home we had purchased,the three young children came running with an old rotary phone they found in a cabinet. They had only seen phones with buttons. Their question was, “But How Did you Dial?” We thought this was hilarious because dialing designates a circular motion that can only be done on a rotary phone. Technically you cannot dial on a phone with buttons, but the term has survived despite being inaccurate.

I have The Green Hornet series on DVD. I also, love listening to The Flight of The Bumblebee music. It doesn't matter how old that track is because it still sounds Great to me!!! But oftentimes I've wondered if there is an instrumental song for a Hornet, since a Bumblebee is a different type of insect although both are classified as Types of Bees? Hornets eat flesh! Bumblebees don't. Just a thought. 🤔 It's too bad that The Green Hornet didn't have more seasons like Batman. And Green Hornet movie disappointed me too! It was awful really!!! We never saw The Black Beauty Destroyed in the series, like it was in the movie! A tragic waste of money 💰 on a forgettable movie 🎥!!!

For the sake of the tv show Kato hits these guys multiple times before they finally go down and even then they are defeated a lot faster than Batman and Robin would defeat them. But if this was real a solid shot to Bruce Lee would cause them serious internal injuries from which without immediate medical attention could easily lead to their death!!!!

Too dark of a filter on the camera - the only reason any of us kids watched this was to see Bruce. It was boring compared to Batman as it wasn't a kid's show. But to watch them now they are really cool noirs with cool dialogue, but they were shot too dark and you miss Bruce.
