''The Green Hornet'' is a television series on the ABC US television network that aired for the 1966–1967 TV season starring Van Williams as the Green Hornet/Britt Reid and Bruce Lee as Kato. ==Plot== ''The Green Hornet'' followed the adventures of playboy-media mogul Britt Reid, the owner and publisher of ''The Daily Sentinel''. As the masked vigilante Green Hornet, Britt fights crime with the assistance of his martial-artist partner Kato, Britt's valet, and his weapons-enhanced car the Black Beauty with license plate V-194. On police records, the Green Hornet is a wanted criminal, but in reality, the Green Hornet pretends to be a criminal in order to infiltrate and battle the criminal gangs, leaving them and the incriminating evidence for police arrival. Beyond Kato, Britt's dual identity is known only to his secretary at ''The Sentinel'', Lenore "Casey" Case and the District Attorney Frank P. Scanlon. Britt's motive for becoming a crimefighter was explained on-screen that his father had died in prison after having been framed and imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. The single-season series premiered September 9, 1966, and ran through March 17, 1967, lasting 26 episodes; ABC repeated the series after its cancellation by the network, until July 14, 1967, when ''The Green Hornet'' had its last broadcast on network television.〔Brooks, Tim, and Earle Marsh, ''The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network and Cable TV Shows'', Eighth Edition (Ballantine Books : New York, 2003), pp. 486-487〕 The character had originated as the star of a 1930s to 1950s radio series, and had previously been adapted to movie serials, comic books, and other media. Britt Reid shares the same last name as The Lone Ranger, as Britt's father was Dan Reid, the Lone Ranger's nephew. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Green Hornet (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
