Brief Introduction:

In 1971, Bruce Lee developed a concept for a television series titled Ah Sahm, about a martial artist in the American Old West. However, Lee had difficulty pitching the series to Warner Bros. and Paramount. According to Lee's widow, Linda Lee Cadwell, Warner Bros. retooled and renamed Lee's concept into Kung Fu, starring David Carradine in the lead role. Warner Bros. stated that they had already begun developing a similar concept, created by writers and producers Ed Spielman and Howard Friedlander, which was later confirmed by Fred Weintraub's memoir and Matthew E. Polly's authoritative biography. According to these sources, Bruce Lee was not cast in the lead role in part because of his ethnicity, but more so because of his accent. Set during the Tong Wars in late 1870s San Francisco, the series follows Ah Sahm, a martial arts prodigy who emigrates from China in search of his sister, only to be sold to one of the most powerful tongs in Chinatown.

Hoping to sharpen his martial arts skills, Ah Sahm enters the fighting pits of the Barbary Coast run by Mexican businesswoman Rosalita Vega. Ah Toy, Lai and Ah Sahm kill a gang of Teddy Boys when they attempt to lynch a Chinese migrant. Later, Leary blows up a factory warehouse known for employing Chinese coolies.With Rosalita's help, a hesitant Young Jun and Ah Sahm broker a deal with Happy Jack, a local drug smuggler. Ah Sahm and Young Jun finally accept Penelope's offer to guard her factory when they learn they can use it as storage for opium. Father Jun brings in new recruits from China to the dismay of Young Jun and Ah Sahm, though one of the new arrivals—Hong—intrigues them with his fighting skills. Angry with her sister, Sophie aids Leary in blowing up her family's factory while Wang Chao has Ah Toy hand over her sword in his effort to frame Zing for the murders.Penelope examines the remnants of her father's factory and discovers the Hop Wei's opium storage. With their opium storage destroyed, Ah Sahm accepts Rosalita's offer to fight at Rooker's Mill and recoup the losses from he and Young Jun's failed business venture.Rosalita, Ah Sahm, Young Jun, and Hong travel to the border town of Rooker's Mill owned by fight promoter and tycoon Elijah Rooker. Impressed by Ah Sahm's skills, Rooker invites Rosalita and Ah Sahm to lunch, where he asks Ah Sahm to stay at Rooker's Mill to train his men. As Rosalita pleads with Ah Sham to stay with her, Smits, Rooker's bodyguard, arrives and shoots Rosalita, who dies in a distraught Ah Sahm's arms, but not before Young Jun kills Smits. Upon their return to Chinatown, the trio are confronted by Father Jun and the Hop Wei council.Young Jun and Ah Sahm convince the Hop Wei into accepting Young Jun as their new leader, forcing Father Jun to retire. Penelope's Chinese manservant, Jacob, kills the Mayor when he attempts to suffocate Penelope.Hoping to provoke Mai Ling into breaking the treaty, Ah Sahm and Young Jun dispose of the remaining Fung Hai, then hang the Hop Wei colors above their former headquarters. As Chao and Ah Toy's bodyguard defend the brothel, Mai Ling tends to Ah Toy's injuries. Leary gathers the dead and injured Irish at his bar and Young Jun, Ah Sahm, and Hong collect Jacob's body for a send-off.The Chinatown residents immortalize Ah Sahm with a large mural of him painted onto a building, Ah Toy encouraging him to consider the potential prospects. Mai Ling seeks an audience with Young Jun where, in an act of desperation, she reveals that Ah Sahm is her brother. After hearing Ah Sahm's story, Young Jun recognizes that he was in an impossible situation and even forgives him, but questions if Ah Sahm still has lingering loyalties to his sister.
