It was sort of fun to remember those days.<br /><br />Hobby: I'd rather see a station show some of the stuff he'd been doing in the last two decades to see if he held up like his dad and other classic character actors.Samuel Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934870299522899944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149411832127844385.post-15675883446432895562009-06-05T12:47:48.589-04:002009-06-05T12:47:48.589-04:00One generation will remember David Carradine for &...One generation will remember David Carradine for "Kung Fu" and "Bound For Glory", as well as the original "Death Race 2000". Most of today's audience will only know him from "Kill Bill" and those insipid Yellow Book commercials. <br /><br />Perhaps one of the best "Kung Fu" eps in the series---and you'd probably agree, Sammy--is the one where David got to work with his father, John, and one of his brothers (Keith or Robert, I forget which at the moment). Pure gold.<br /><br />If I'm not mistaken, Carradine's passing leaves Radames Pera (Young Caine) as possibly the lone regular cast member still alive today. Meanwhile, let's see if there's a marathon of "Kung Fu" or its sequel somewhere on the cable this weekend or next.hobbyfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08089664500077967952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149411832127844385.post-9619470878597039242009-06-05T12:25:23.005-04:002009-06-05T12:25:23.005-04:00A truly wonderful post.

Your memories of watching Kung Fu back in the 1970s was especially a special treat to read. <br /><br />I must say I was sad to read about his passing though - I've always had admiration for him as an actor.<br /><br />Look forward to your review of JCVD!Classic Maidenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06452165665779363139noreply@blogger.com
