I loved the original Kung Fu show. Tonight at 8 pm EDT on CW is the pilot for the new series. I have high hopes it will be a good show.

I'll check it out, but I'm not hopeful.

Re: New Kung Fu TV Show Debuts Tonight
I watched it, LIVE...which is something I never do.

My takeaway?

I didn't see anything original.

The plot lines and sub plots are all old, tired, and they suck.

The fight scenes were choreographed for the camera very well, but in total, there were only 3 fights, and I found nothing about those fights that was very interesting, except maybe for when she threw one guy through a car window.

Your takeaway from my post?

You should be impressed by my use of "threw" and "through" in the same sentence.

Re: New Kung Fu TV Show Debuts Tonight
Well, I thought it was fine.

Its the new fangled martial arts with everyone on wires so they can take huge leaps, etc.

But it was a decent first episode where they have to introduce all the characters and provide enough backstory so you understand who they are. All new series start this way, they always have.

There's only a few shows that I watch on TV and I would like to find a few more to watch, so I will give this one a chance.

BTW: It doesn't appear to be a Woke production, one of her brothers is gay but it was mentioned quickly and never had anything to do with the plot and was never mentioned again. I suppose it will come up again, because their parents would freak out over it.

SEAL team is the only other thing worth watching on Wednesday until they bring back Prodigal Son. And that might be opposite Kung Fu. Oh no.

I barely made it through the preview, music sucked, but I haven't watched TV in 15 years so it all sucks for me. Looks like embrace CCP programming and propaganda to me, of course that's what all TV is, programming and propaganda.

Re: New Kung Fu TV Show Debuts Tonight
I can only protest for the abuse of the name of the series. They shouldn’t have tried to smear the well earned fame of the original series and the less good but still ok spin off “the legend continues”.

This new one is a soft woke cheap production without any of the interesting elements of the original series, it should have not attempted to take the name down to its level.

I loved the original series. I'll probably give this one a chance, but I fully expect it to be Woke Fu trash.
 Quoting: CK Dexter Haven


What? No Carradines! The original show had 3 Carradines in one episode.
 Quoting: Lacey Underall


Hehe, I had same thought! Just won't be quite the same.

Don't watch burnit so will have to check back later to see what y'all think about the remake attempt.

Those of us old enough here do know how fucked up it was w/ the original tv show concept. Bruce Lee's idea but Hollyweird still thought it was too risky to bank on Chinese star, so they tapped DC.

Lot of us here are still a bit skeptical as to the truth of the circumstances as to how DC died in what I believe was reported to be result of erotic chokey-jerky gig.

Anyhoo I'll give the first episode a watch, despite the bad ratings.. I do love me some good fun kung fu movies and shows.. I miss the old days of Jet Li and Jackie Chan kickass movies, like "The One".

Cobra Kai is also pretty entertaining, following the Karate Kid main actors decades later.

Chinese women are literally the weakest, frailest females on the planet. The idea of a slant bitch beating anything other her massage parlor patrons cock is utterably laughable.

But...but....the TV told me that women (especially "minority women") are just as strong & capable as a man and can do anything a man can do and do it better (especially fighting)!

The original show was all about learning life's great truths and exploring situations where these truths are tested.

This new show is short on wisdom, and Long on spinny kicks.

Conflict scenes mean nothing if you don't care about the characters.

It was a great show succeeding in taking advantage of creating great life lessons out of the clash of oriental millenary wisdom with Wild West harsh and pragmatic reality. I always found the philosophical background interesting. Without it this new show is just a sad mockery of the series from which is taking the name.

The first show was good because David Carradine didn't have vertically challenged eyes.

Who believes this crap about women who can fight. One hundred percent of these movie shits would crumble if you whistled at them, much less punch them.
