- There have been plenty of negative criticisms of the show posted. Most if
- not concerned the martial arts. I will say this in defense of the show,
- for the first two seasons it was a very well written and
- executed show which addressed
- many social issues without being preachy. It was one of the best shows
- on the air at the time. In the last season it concentrated
- on a lot of magic and other mystical things and really went down the tubes.
-
- I still enjoy watching old repeats of the first two seasons. The martial
- arts were not very good but it was good as a TV show. I liked the show
- so much when it was first run that I could not wait for a week to go
- by so I could watch the next episode.
