![]() ![]() Apparently the producers of this new series believe young people are not interested in thinking deeply. At least in the original series, Caine grew up learning kung-fu and the ways of their Taoist. The first episode hints at magical powers to come, and it implies that the charismatic young heroine has developed amazing kung-fu skills in three short years at a monastery. It is written for a young audience and it appears to center around a sword with magical powers (Holy Green Destiny, Batman) and only its rightful owner can hold it (shades of Thor's hammer). This series is a disgrace to the "Kung Fu" name. Yes, the fight scenes were fun and brought something new to Western audiences that amazed us all, but at the heart of the series was a map for how to live a moral life how to connect with all things. The original "Kung Fu" TV series was about morality.
