I have not seen this series for well over 35 years. Remarkably, it has stood the harsh test of time.
While it cannot compare with university level studies of East Asian philosophy and religion, it deals with topics that have universal applicability, and it does so in an intelligent fashion.
Caine lives in a world of avarice, violence, and breath-taking stupidity. In spite of all this, he must persevere in his pursuit of familial connections and obligations, another eternal Eastern theme.
The dialog and psychological situations merit serious attention and certainly keep the viewer's interest.
