Yep ... they had to include far too many "convenient plot occurrences" to make it straight to the final battle. That way there is no mystery and the characters are "archetypical shallow".
I was 5 when this show was on. It was the only violence we were allowed to watch. Because of no blood and the good guys always won! I loved it then and I still love it today! RIP Van, Bruce, Wende, Lloyd and all who made this brilliant piece of television history.
@@michaelhewitt258 How in the world could it have poor ratings when our whole town in Warrenton at the coast enjoyed it and So Many people enjoyed this show!!
@@Kelly-3.14 I agree. I think the audience was expecting the Green Hornet to be "campy" like Batman and when it wasn't they tuned out. But then with time, the Green Hornet became greatly appreciated for the dramatic series it was. It's too bad that it didn't premier before Batman did--that way it might have been appreciated sooner and lasted far longer
The Green Hornet was truly a great action/adventure show;and Van Williams & Bruce Lee were a great team! It had everything going for it:great storylines,a great cast,and the Black Beauty was THE greatest TV crimefighting car ever built! It should have lasted more than 1 season.
Tony Burr Why Batman, one of the campiest shows every aired on TV, stayed on for more than one season while the Green Hornet was cancelled is beyond me.
+Mark Giardina THE GREEN HORNET on ABC, was up against TARZAN (starring Ron Elly) which lasted 2 seasons on NBC and THE WILD, WILD WEST (already in its second season) which lasted 4 seasons on CBS.
Omg! John Travolta's first love, Diana Hyland, playing the lawyer. She had such amazing eyes. RIP Van, Bruce, Diana and all of those who worked on this show who've passed. Thank you for the hours of fun, watching your work, that you let behind for us.
C Figueroa she also played Joan Bradford, the mother of eight kids and wife of Tom Bradford in the pilot episode of Eight is Enough before her death in 1977. Some of us early teens considered that show the late 70's early 80's version of the Brady Bunch....
One of the dumbest moves ever made by ABC not letting Green Hornet have a longer season than Batman,with Bruce Lee's charisma should had run 5yrs alone..😊
this is the first I've been able to see the Green Hornet series, my only previous exposure was in the Batman episode. This series is such higher quality, none of the camp of the Batman series. it's ashame this show didn't run longer.
I mean it can be campy. But that's just because it's from the 60s. It was quite incredible for it's time. The fight scenes were great for the 60s and it helps that Bruce Lee was involved in a lot of em. Great show.
Love this series. Commented 5 years ago and again today. It really holds up. Love It! Imagine my disappointment at the movie. But less said about that the better.
The show is pretty good, and for the time I imagine the special effects must have been something special indeed. The movie Black Beauty lived up to the name and Kato was pretty decent, but such a shame about how they portrayed Britt.
I just started watching with, man it could work today. It wasn't corny like Batman or some of the other similar shows were then. Honestly, I didn't respect Bruce Lee's work, up until now, I guess I just needed to know more about him. He's awesome!

Love the Series...Van Williams portrayal of Britt Reed/The Green Hornet, Bruce Lee's Kung Fu antics as Kato, and Wende Wagner's bouffant. Those are my memories of the series.
Van Williams had said in interviews that he was glad that The Green Hornet lasted only one season. It was an incredibly difficult and physically taxing show to do and he was constantly rushed to get the episodes taped on time
The entire series Available on penny Saver on line or E bay classifieds this set is awesome thank you guys or www.matrixx.VPweb.com in the entertainment section
In episode 2 there is a Kato fight scene that takes place in the shadows in a darkened warehouse at night. Bruce Lee in action but not entirely seen. What was the cinematographer thinking? Then I recall that they did have some good drugs in the '60s.
The best part is how creative they get. Like, you know a lot of thought went into the security of the hidden room. 1 book on the shelf? nope, that's for chumps. Got to have combination of 3 at least.
Yes, this was a great series but it only lasted 1 season unfortunately. At least Hollywood was smart enough to unite them on that famous Batman episode! I read that Van Williams (Green Hornet) wanted them to give Bruce Lee more time on the series especially his fighting scenes but the series Creator declined because Van Williams was the main character of the show! What a shame.
Fantastic show, I remember being six years old and the excitement of the new Television season with this show coming (Love Miss Case still ,never enough of Her)
man i loved the green hornet.the problem is it was only on for one season..but i wiil never forget the late. al hurt blowing the trumpet on the green hornet theme song..
At 13.57 .... that cream and red fade custom Riviera with 2 1/2" chop top is a George Barris car. Called the "mystique" it is a 1965 Buick it was in a movie called Pit Stop and much later 1970s tv show called (Run, Buddy,Run) . Barris is same guy who shop actually BUILT the black Beauty and Batmobile.
This is my wife's account. Im Bill her husband whose favorite radio show was The Green Hornet. The tv show was great liked it much better than Batman. Really well done.
Gee, isn't it amazing how many Chrysler product cars are always in this show? What a coincidence! (Nudge nudge wink wink ...!) Speaking of cars ... some nice customs in this episode. Looks like George Barris' work ...?
I remember Bruce Lee before he became famous with his martial arts movies sad to say his movies are still the best r u watching his movies did you know that he has been gone over 50 years that's a long time
The Green Hornet itself is a brilliant concept: he’s a criminal who wants in on all the action, and somehow delivers them to the cops and stays a criminal. He’s the world first super villain
there is something about the music and sound on this show that brings me back to when i watched these type of shows as a kid eventhough they were already 20+ years old by the time i watched them as a kid, the type of camera direction and format of the episodes is just pure nostalgia.
Besides the Black Beauty, I liked that custom Riviera, & the other custom car was a 65 or 66 Buick Wildcat because I've seen that in a custom car magazine back in the sixties
I know it wasn't the thing at the time, but this show should have had 1 hour episodes. Batman was fun... But this show had depth. Van had a smile girls would die for, and he had the edge all guys want. And Bruce was Bruce, and a much better sidekick than Robin. I know it will never happen, but I would love to see Christopher Nolan tackle this and bring it back to life once more...
@Rockwell Rhodes Truthfully I can't argue against your point. B/C as time goes on, technology will surely increase and the stealth-like atmosphere Hornet and Kato enjoyed will no longer be exclusive. Many changes would have to be made, probably in the extreme, in order to make their existence credible. I hope this makes some kind of sense.
Wendi Wagner is the attractive secretary, Lenore Casey, in this series. She was very athletic and while living in the Bahamas she became an underwater stunt double in the series Sea Hunt and The Aquanauts. She also doubled for Joanne Dru in underwater sequences in the 1960 film September Storm. She was a surfer and friends with Sharon Tate, the two sharing an apartment for a while. Sadly, Wagner died of cancer on February 26, 1997, at the age of 55.
There is/was a Green Hornet movie serial here on RUclips that makes an interesting contrast to this tv series and the ridiculous movies. In the serials, Ms Case is not aware of her boss's secret identity, Kato is the brains/inventor of many of the Green Hornet's " toys ", and Black Beauty is a modified Lincoln Zephyr capable of 200mph.
Too bad they didn't have smart phones in those days! Green Hornet could have taken several full color pictures of that bad guy standing without his canes and even a short video of him running and jumping like a star athlete!!! Lol!!!!!
Thought I just saw Pat Sajak at the beginning lolz You gotta be an expert driver to park these cars so they can be clamped accurately before being turned upside down in the garage. Kato takes good care of the Black Beauty though :D
When the HORNET comes up on Axford he says “Out Cold” instead of “out cough”..that help?…you were correct when Reid says “Obit Department” so you can leave that👍👍
I didn't like the very poor remake version of the green hornet. Why turn it into a comedy for? Love the original series ❤ in China it was known as the kato show?
@cutie evee 2 I was really excited about seeing the movie when it was released, but all I heard were bad reviews, so I figured that I wouldn't waste my time or money.
The tv show only lasted 1966-1967 bruce lee did the tv show before he did hisartial arts movies in hong kong and he did drugs and had a bad reaction that put him in the hospital. He lived to be 34 years old and died 1973 and was married to linda lee caldwell with son deceased brandon snd dsughter brenda lee. My memory of him he fought chuck norris in return of the dragon which chuck norris claimed had alot of bruses all over his body. Bruce lee was born in san francisco and along with brandon buried in seattle washington cemetary like jimmy hendrix a rock legend.
Michael Liebers he didn't do drugs and he died at age 32 also his daughter is Shannon Lee. The thing that put him in the hospital was a pain killer which he died from he never took drugs.
I daresay no-one on here knows for certain. Some people close to Bruce Lee claimed he sometimes chewed cannabis resin, but I don't know if there's any proof. His daughter was Shannon Lee. Brenda Lee is the woman who had a hit with "Rockin Around The Christmas Tree." I've always loved that fight scene with Chuck Norris, though.
I'll never understand why they canceled this show ..it was a huge hit ..an I still love it.
Because they were cretins.
As kids South side of Chicago. We said” hey Bruce Lee is on.” The playground would be empty for 30 minutes. Real talk
I think was timeing batman came out at the same time
It was on Friday nights the death slot.
I Love IT Too.
The Green Hornet was a show that not only shouldn't have been canceled, it should have been a full hour
Yep ... they had to include far too many "convenient plot occurrences" to make it straight to the final battle. That way there is no mystery and the characters are "archetypical shallow".
I definitely agree 👌💯😉
They cancelled Star Trek. Go figure.
Brilliant TV show. 1966 was a great year for TV!

I always loved how Britt Reid's high-end millionaire apartment sits right in front of a back alley slum.
... and none of the people there ever notice some "regular occurrences of a certain car".
It's set in Chicago so...I'm not surprised. Jk

I will say the movies version of the black beauty was better though i wish they kept the drone, scanner and bug system.
The show is pretty good, and for the time I imagine the special effects must have been something special indeed. The movie Black Beauty lived up to the name and Kato was pretty decent, but such a shame about how they portrayed Britt.
I always love all the in good shape 1960 cars in the Green Hornet series
THIS SHOW IS BRILLIANT!

The Green Hornet was a gentleman. At 5:50 he gave him his hat back. Even put it on his head.
Feeling like a kid again watching this. Thank you!

Every episode someone has a secret entrance to a backroom ....You gotta love it!
Liberty what, you don’t have one in your home? I have three! Conversation pieces, fighting the green hornet, a million uses!!

Is it me or was the acting generally a lot better for these kinds of programs back in the 60s?
My wife says it’s because of nostalgia but the writing and acting was better👍👍
The Green Hornet itself is a brilliant concept: he’s a criminal who wants in on all the action, and somehow delivers them to the cops and stays a criminal. He’s the world first super villain
He's not a really a criminal. He just pretends to be in order to have better access to the criminal underworld and so actual criminals will trust him.
This Show Had So Much Hit Potential!!! Would Love To See A Modern Day Revival Where The Grandchildren Take Up The Mantle!!!
I am enjoying the footage of the classic Detroit iron from the big three

That Green Hornet can hit awfully hard and fast. It wasn't just Bruce Lee who can hit.

Lenore Case and Miss Bromley would look so much better in microminis, and it was appropriate for the Sexy '60s.

In the legend of Bruce Lee it says that the series was cancel, because the producer wanted to get more into movies. Don't known how accurate this is.
Low ratings, merch was not selling.
Ever notice how the Green Hornet gets in the car on the left side, but when they show the inside of the car he's on the right?
He probably moves to the right or middle of the car after he is in there
I always enjoyed this much better than Batman. No camp.
As we didn't get this at the time, it is more grown up than Batman. Only watching it because of Mr Lee

His daughter was Shannon Lee. Brenda Lee is the woman who had a hit with "Rockin Around The Christmas Tree."
I've always loved that fight scene with Chuck Norris, though.
