Before They Were Stars: Don Johnson on “Kung Fu”

You may as well title this clip “actors that Quentin Tarantino loves”. In this climactic scene from a 1973 episode of Kung Fu, David Carradine fights Bo Svenson, the star of the original Inglorious Bastards, who had small roles in both Inglourious Basterds and Kill Bill Vol. 2 (as the minister who is killed in Bill’s wedding chapel massacre). 23-year old Don Johnson (recently used by Tarantino in Django Unchained) had one of his earliest roles in this episode as an Indian (?!) named Nashibo. So… does that mean he’s an ancestor of Nash Bridges?
