everyone thought that the Green Hornet would be played like Batman--campy etc not the serious drama it was. Van Williams has said that he was glad that the Green Hornet only lasted one year and the pressure/timelines and work involved in making it was overwhelming for him and Bruce Lee. He said that his friendship with Bruce Lee was forged by their experiences in making the Green Hornet and what they went through together

@wayneb8495 3 жыл бұрын

Hornet wants them to think that. First he finds out who the criminal mastermind is but doesn't have proof. Then he busts in on his "suspect" as another criminal to partner up, usually demanding something outrageous. The criminal mastermind agrees at the time because he has no choice, but later betrays the Green Hornet. The expected betrayal triggers the war Green Hornet actually wants and always wins.

@ronald3419 7 жыл бұрын

This discussion has come up on the Green Hornet fan pages on Facebook. The different parties which own this franchise cannot come to agreements about a DVD/Blu-ray release. With the 50th anniversary past and last surviving cast member Van Williams now deceased, hope has all but faded out. I bit the bullet and got a bootleg DVD that was sold on eBay. It is the episodes posted here, apparently recorded from TV. IMHO it is best to have a hard copy as KZfaq might for some reason take these episodes down at any time. They are a bit better if you have a Blu-ray player that plays DVD with enhancements. At least we can have a few scenes of GH and Kato on Blu-ray in the Batman crossover.
