User Reviews

It did exist!

For years no one would believe me when I described this series: a detective who was the first on television to use karate. Was he the first? Of that I am not sure, but he was certainly the first to appear on Detroit television. Undistinguished otherwise, the fight scenes were a revelation in that time of haymakers and wrestling.
