Kung Fu: The Legend Continues

1993–1997 · 4 seasons

A gentle, old-fashioned action show where wise calm and father-son warmth soften the urban crime and the occasional fight.

Overview: Like his legendary namesake, Kwai Chang Caine is a warrior monk, operating a Shaolin temple in Northern California. After an evil priest, Tan, destroys the temple, Caine and his young son, Peter each believe the other has perished. The two embark on very different paths -- Caine wanders the Earth, while Peter is a cop. When fate brings the two together, they work to overcome their differing philosophies to battle Tan, and then to help the innocent and bring justice to the new Wild West -- 90s urban America.
