Barnes & Noble - Christina Urban
The journey across the American West by erstwhile Shaolin priest Kwai Chang Caine David Carradine ends in the third and final season of Kung Fu. Caine has been on the run from bounty hunters and assassins, after having killed the Chinese emperor's nephew. In the course of his travels -- in which he spreads Eastern philosophy and preaches nonviolence -- he has discovered he has a half brother, Danny Caine Tim McIntire. In Season 3's "My Brother, My Executioner" Caine discovers that his brother has been living as a gunfighter and gambler, leading Caine to intensify his search. Among the season's highlights are four episodes set entirely in China; previously, we had only seen Caine's training with Masters Po Keye Luke and Kan Philip Ahn in flashbacks. In the two-part "Besieged: Death on Cold Mountain" both directed by Carradine, Caine and Master Po are sent to rescue the members of a temple that has been destroyed by a warlord. "The Thief of Chendo" has Master Po and Caine visualizing what it will be like when the young man leaves the temple. In "The Devil's Champion," Caine has visions of a mysterious man who challenges Master Kan to a fight to the death. And "The Forbidden Kingdom" tells the story of exactly how Caine killed the emperor's nephew, followed by his flight to America. The series conclusion arcs across a four-part story that basically ends Caine's search for his missing brother: In "Barbary House" Caine learns that Danny has a son, Zeke John Blythe Barrymore; Danny is on the run in "Flight to Orion"; the two brothers are finally reunited in "The Brothers Caine"; and the series goes out on a high note in "Full Circle," with Caine’s fittingly Confucian sign-off: "My journey is endless 'til it comes full circle at my death."

    A Classic Still Worth Watching

    Hard to believe that it has been 30 years since the Kung Fu television series left the air. At least it is for me. Because it is set in the old West it seems to be timeless. It does not seem dated. Now compared to today's action movies and CGI movies there is a significant difference. The difference is that the fight scenes are actually performed by humans doing movements that humans actually can perform.

    This third season continues to follows the travels of Kwai Chang Kaine, a half Chinese half American Shaolin Monk across the American West in a quest to locate his brother Danny Kaine. Along the way, Kwai Chang deals with various problems such as prejudice of all types- against Chinese, African Americans and Native Americans. In this final season , Kwai Chang actually meets up with his brother and their travels and travails continue together.

    Intermixed with his adventures are flashbacks to his time in the Shaolin Temple in China with Masters Po, the Blind Master, Han and the others. The parables and advice they give is straight out of legitimate Chinese Wisdom books and is the same taught today by Taoist teachers and priests.

    If you are interested in Asian philiosophy, the philosophy displayed in this series is legit. It is not canned or hooky. The symbolism is presented in an outstanding manner so as to be easily understood by beginners or experts. Sometimes overt and sometimes sublime but always present.

    This is an outstanding addition to a martial arts collection an Asian philosophy collection or an old west collection. And of course it is a requirement to complete the entire series.

    Many of the old TV series I purchase and watch result in me being deeply disappointed. Plots and acting usually are terrible. That is not the case in Kung Fu. Plots are well written and thought out and interesting. Acting is good and at times outstanding.

    You'll appreciate your investment in this purchase.

    When TV was television

    Revisit the days of thought provoking and meaningful televison. David Carradine's best work of the series is here. I am a fan of the entire series, but the third is consistently the best of all three seasons. Carradine even directs a few of the episodes and brings a new demension to the character of Cain. This is a series that can be watched over and over and still gain a different perspective or learn something new each time. One of the most profound series in the history of television.
