Goofs
There is a stock footage sequence every week, that shows the streetscape outside the "Harmony Dumpling Restaurant" in Chinatown. There a fake San Francisco cable car in that sequence. You also hear the brassy, insistent ding of a cable car bell, being rung twice. The fake cable car is clearly a two axle motorized vehicle running on four pneumatic rubber tires. The roadway is also missing the required steel tracks as used by a real San Francisco cable car.

San Francisco cable cars have a complicated undercarriage, and the car rides on a pair of four-wheel trucks with flanged iron wheels (no pneumatic rubber tires), designed for the cable car narrow gauge track of 3 ft 6 in (1.067 mm).

Featured review

New show, a different take on Kung Fu.

No surprise at all, the biggest revelation so far is the stupidity of many "reviewers" on IMDb who don't have a clue how to actually review a TV program or movie. Their only objective is to try to trash it.

Why do we watch a show on TV? To be entertained. I really enjoyed the old Kung Fu show, but it was totally, yes totally, different from this one. So far after three episodes I have enjoyed this new TV series enough. But I decided to quit watching it simply because I have a certain amount of "viewing time" and this TV show doesn't give me that "I wonder what will happen next week" excitement. However it is a reasonably entertaining show that doesn't deserve the very harsh criticism from some quarters.

Comparing it to an old, totally different show has no merit. But then a few here on IMDb have no clue how to actually review anything.
