While Law decided to return to China in the last episode, a line of dialogue leaves open the possibility of a follow-up. In addition, revelations are made of a secret society whose members include Law's long-lost son. The department also gets a new captain, Amy Dylan, who thinks that the Chinese way of police work is not the best way of handling things. Terrell Parker ( Arsenio Hall) joins the team and becomes Sammo's official partner.įollowing the events of the previous season finale, and prior to the second-season premiere, Winship retires and Louis transfers to the NYPD, while Law decides to stay in Los Angeles and is now partnered with Grace. Dana Dixon ( Tammy Lauren) is initially part of the team, but leaves after only five episodes she is explained to have moved to another police force to be closer to her family. He is assisted in this by Grace (who joins the LAPD alongside him), Det. This plot line was unresolved and season one ended in a cliffhanger, although season two's premiere has Sammo alluding to Lee Hei's death (by way of accusing a one-shot villain of trying to avenge it). His goal is to capture Lee Hei and end his criminal organization. He finds out that his disciple, Pei Pei, had infiltrated Lee Hei's criminal empire. Sammo is sent by the Chinese government to apprehend an old nemesis, Lee Hei ( Tzi Ma). When American techniques do not work, Sammo employs some Chinese cop work to get the job done. He is also the mentor of Grace "Pei Pei" Chen ( Kelly Hu), an undercover officer. As he works for the police department, fighting crime in Los Angeles, he is met with a clash in culture. The basic storyline is that Sammo Law ( Sammo Hung), a well-respected Chinese cop, is transferred to America. The show lasted two seasons, before being cancelled due to high production costs and Hung being unhappy with the writing of season two.
MOVIE FOOTAGE OF MARTIAL LAW NEWS SERIES
In many scenes, Hung does not speak at all, making Martial Law one of the few United States television series to feature little dialogue from the lead character. At the time, Hung was not fluent in English and worried about the audience's ability to understand him. The show was a surprise hit, making Hung the only East Asian headlining a primetime network series in the United States. The title character, Sammo Law ( Sammo Hung), is a Chinese law officer and martial arts expert who comes to Los Angeles in search of a colleague and remains in the United States.
Martial Law is an American action- crime- adventure- comedy television series created by Carlton Cuse that aired on CBS from September 26, 1998, to May 13, 2000.
