    Hello, I'm back in here for a reason. I am looking for fans of the old WD Zorro, back in 1957 with Guy Williams. It has been on air for a very long time. But Disney has decided to take it, and Vault Disney in general out, so they can put in kiddy shows. I'm not very happy about this, and I think there may be a few others that are not happy either. I don't want to deal with the sarcastic people out there, just the sencere ones. So if you are displeased by this, post here or PM me.

    Sorry to hear that.

    When I was a kid I was ignorant of the fact that Guy Williams wasn't even Hispanic! Well, maybe a little? Carlos(Chuck)Norris and Martin Sheen are but they look white so its "okay" with them. Funny that Banderas was a Spaniard, dudes the Mejicanos were fighting in the first place!

    Still mad that Bruce Lee was passed over by Carradine in Kung Fu. When Brandon Lee was on a tv special it was kinda redemption...kinda. But, yeah, I loved the old Zorro films and serials.

    Well it's Disney Channel, what do you expect?


    I stopped watching Zorro off the TV after I taped every episode. My favorites are the ones from the first season with Capitan Monastario and the ones from the end of the season where "the Eagle" finally makes his appearance in Los Angeles.

    "Guy Williams" was really only a stage name, the actor's real name was Armando Catalana.

    Thanks Lt. Tschel! I remember now that "Guy" did indeed have a Hispanic/Latino name...

    I know, Disney isn't worth Sith now a days. But it just seems sad that they would replace classic stuff with teeny bopper junk.

    Guy was Italian with a bit of Spanish in him.
