#KungFuTheLegendContinues 57 (1995) - 10/10
My favourite episode.

1️⃣ I love these syndicated adventure shows of the 1990s. Telling stories that could never fly on network TV.

2️⃣ This, in particular, is a series with a unique blend of fantasy, mysticism and action. The script here, by #DamianKindler (#StargateSG1), is about an ancient chalice (with mystical powers) hidden in a church in France.

3️⃣ #AlexCord (#Airwolf) and #GuylaineStOnge (#EarthFinalConflict) are the guest stars.

I watched/reviewed/rated 25 episodes of #ClassicTV between April 30th and May 14th.
Here's how they lined up.

#BenMasters, #JenniferDale guest star.

1️⃣ Standard heroes-investigate-small-town-corruption story. The #KungFu spin is that the woman in trouble is someone Caine loved years earlier.

2️⃣ It plays out really well with interesting characters, a fast-paced plot and some decent action.

#KungFuTheLegendContinues 55 (1995) - 9/10
Another fun genre-swapping entry.

1️⃣ This time, the tropes of hardboiled private eye stories are employed. Sparingly.

2️⃣ Guest stars include #MariaDelMar (#TekWar) and #JesseCollins (#KattsAndDog).

3️⃣ I’m consistently impressed by the way this show can take supernatural beings and use them in realistic crime stories.

4️⃣ This is the 5th of 8 scripts credited to #MartinBorycki on the show.

📺 My 415th #TVReview of 2023.

#KungFuTheLegendContinues 54 (1995) - 9/10
Fun haunted house episode.

1️⃣ Written by #MichaelSloan (#TheHardyBoys, #TheEqualizer), directed by #JonCassar (#TheOrville). First appearance for #SandeyGrinn as TJ.

2️⃣ This is such an unusual and unique show. It’s a sequel to a martial arts western, but it’s a modern cop show with strong fantasy elements.

3️⃣ This particular story casually incorporates ghosts and time travel! And they take all of it seriously. It shouldn’t work, but it does. In spades.
