Transcription

Overview

The series, consisting of 39 half-hour monochrome episodes, follows the investigations of the fictional detective Charlie Chan, created by Earl Derr Biggers in 1925. The series follows the convention, established in the Charlie Chan films, of having the Asian character Chan played by a Western actor while his son(s) were played by actual Asians.

James Hong, who played Number One Son, said J. Carrol Naish had Hong fired from the show after Naish engaged in a racist outburst.[2][3]
