Radames Pera of the original Kung Fu




TV Confidential with Ed Robertson show

Summary: TVC 500.2: Part 1 of a two-part conversation with Radames Pera, the actor best known for playing young Kwai Chang Caine, aka “Grasshopper,” in the flashback sequences of the original Kung Fu (ABC, 1972-1975), and John Edwards, Mary Ingalls’ love interest, on Little House on the Prairie. Earlier this year Universal announced plans to develop Kung Fu as a feature motion picture, while The CW will reimagine Kung Fu as a new weekly series that is scheduled to premiere during the 2020-2021 television season. Ed talks to Radames about both these developments, plus Radames shares some memories about his work on the original series, including the role that Bruce Lee played indirectly in getting Kung Fu on the air.
