  • The Green Hornet's car, Black Beauty, is a customized Chrysler Imperial built by car customizer Dean Jeffries.

  • Bruce Lee once said that he was selected for the role of Kato because he was the only Asian actor who could properly pronounce "Britt Reid".

  • The character of Britt Reid/Green Hornet was created by the same people who created The Lone Ranger, and was said to be a descendant of the western hero.

  • The theme song for this show was the same as for the radio version: The Flight of the Bumble Bee by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. It was significantly rearranged for the television series by Billy May who gave it a big band jazz style that was nicknamed Green Bee. The theme is best known for the trumpet solo played by Al Hirt.

  • This show crossed over with "Batman", and it was revealed that Bruce Wayne and Britt Reid were rivals as youngsters, and Britt was a champion marble shooter.
