Kung Fu: The Brothers Caine (1975)
Season 3, Episode 20
9/10
The real reason the series was canceled
19 November 2022
I came of age during the period of this series, and I followed all the trivia surrounding it. The show was canceled because David Carradine was busted for marijuana possession, long before it was okay to use it. The producers freaked out at the prospect of the "bad press" Carradine's arrest would create.

That being said, I agree that the season three writing was awful. I won't comment on Leslie Nielson's fitness as a dramatic actor; he had many dramatic parts before his comedy metamorphosis.

I found the series overall to be unlike anything on TV at the time, and tried to internalize "Caine's" teachings in my life.
