I'm old enough to have seen all the Zorro productions first hand since Guy Williams. On one hand, the numerous plot branches introduced here keep the 10 episodes from being repetitious, but at the same time, tend to diminish the 'hero' aspect of the Zorro lead, as he manages more to survive all of his antagonists than vanquish them. The original Zorros were cast as patsy Diegos contrasted with strong and noble Zorros. Here, the contrast is less stark.... Diego is more competent, except when interacting with 'Lolita' and Zorro is more fallible, both in fighting antagonists and character nobility. The acting itself is adequate with most of the principal actors, I just think the dialogue and screenplay construction doesn't do the Zorro concept full justice.
