User Reviews

Hilarious, short-lived series!

Zorro the Elder is out of commission for a while, and his son tries to help him right the wrongs of society. The most memorable line is when the Elder Zorro advises his son not to dawdle in correcting society's ills - he should, "get in, make your Z and get out!!"
