And it holds up mightily!
The music was way ahead of its time for 1972 network Tv

Starting season 2 - such a great show!

I don't think I've seen this show since it first aired. I have fond memories of watching it religiously with my dad.

It’s held up well!

One of my favorite shows. Way ahead in every way.

Love that scene where he's sitting by the fire and gets robbed.

"And it holds up mightily!"

Agreed! In addition to the greatly choreographed martial arts scenes, I enjoy the Shaolin wisdom imparted via flashback during each episode.

I've only seen the sequel series "Kung Fu: The Legend Continues".

You should try the original series. It's really good.

So many great shows from this time that I watched. I must have been planted in front of the TV for much of my childhood. I really enjoyed Kung Fu, as ridiculous as it was, or any show where TV show stars go through life and never get a scratch - which is even worse today, see Reacher.

Pretty sad, David Carradine's ignominious end.

Never have taken a look at the sequel series. Is is OK?
