The Samurai​

Credits: IMDb

Who used to rush home from school to catch The Samurai on Channel 9? Shintaro, Tombei, and those Koga ninjas had Aussie kids hooked every day. Everyone at school couldn't wait to chat about the latest episode. What was your favourite episode from the show?

The picture just reminded me, had forgotten, the most memorable thing was how they jumped around, and spun on a sixpence for want of a better description.

My husband told me about Shintaro like this gentleman did after school. As a Japanese myself, I watched this program in Japan around the same time my husband did. It was a nice surprise to see that people in other countries were doing the same thing that I was doing in Japan!!

Those old shows always had a good morale, Rin Tin Tin, Daniel Boone, Sea Hunt, Fury, Rawhide.
Shame they don't bring some back.

I was nuts about 'Shintaro'. That lovely looking man floated my quite young boat.
