I'm an early riser and I had gotten up and made my cup of coffee and I'm scrolling through the channels and here's this show called Renegade and I was like this is badass. It's now my morning ritual to have my coffee and watch Renegade I can't believe I didn't find this show until 2022

[@THEBANDIT7979]

Lorenzo lamas One of the coolest guys from the 90s. Criminally underrated. Charismatic actor. And a real biker too

[@MatrixCobretti]

Lorenzo did fantastic work, Renegade had the best fight scenes on 90s television!

[@VikingSamurai]

Definitely!

[@jameswest981]

He seems a lot more honest than others he's not claiming,grand master in every art he's ever trained in. I remember wanting to see him and chuck Norris fight in a episode or something,it is a great show.

[@theflyingninja1]

I loved these 90s martial arts tv series. Other ones were Street Justice, Acapulco Heat and, of course, Walker Texas Ranger. Renegade was great.

[@MatrixCobretti]

@@theflyingninja1 Don't forget Raven! That's my favorite 90s martial arts series after Renegade.

[@MatrixCobretti]

@@jameswest981 I was impressed by how open and honest he is and how careful he is to credit other people for their contributions. He seems like a good example of a true martial artist.

[@proudlycanadian3023]

He is a very cool actor! Loved ''The Renegade' when I was a kid!

[@Bolero79]

Renegade was the best show in the 90’s an Lorenzo is still Cool an got that Swag!! 😎

[@TheTitanborn]

Loved Renegade as a kid and always thought Lorenzo was a cool and humble guy. He is exactly that, great interview.

[@MrFacundo7]

Another great video with Lorenzo Lamas 💪 Great job Viking Samurai 👏 Great to listen all the details about how Renegade was created and all the behind the scenes stories. I didn't even know he did all those fight coreographies all by him self. This is great stuff🥋💪 And also that motorcycle was amazing 🔥🕶️👍

[@clarkparker4860]

I had no idea he choreographed his own fights. That Renegade-stuff looked amazing.

[@VikingSamurai]

Ya, I wouldn't have guessed he did the choreography either.

[@infinitegaming2884]

I thank youtube for recommending this show to me. Such a cool series. We need more programs like Renegade.

[@machohogan]

So happy to see you becoming friends with guys like Lorenzo. Well deserved.

[@Karen-q5e]

I stay up until 4 am to watch the reruns. Love both Lorenzo and Branscombe. They could not hsve picked two sexier men to play the two main characters.

[@grimreaper7734]

We watched the pilot episode when it first aired in 1992. My mom became hooked on Lorenzo Lamas. Whenever the show came on she'd say "I'm watching my BOYFRIEND!"

[@sparrow420500]

I LOVED Renegade back in the '90s!! I used to watch it every afternoon on USA after school. I even named my son Reno after his character. Renegade was on right before Highlander the Series, another awesome show! Should try and get Adrian Paul on sometime. Would LOVE to see you talk with him.

[@MatrixCobretti]

Did you ever see the promo Lorenzo and Adrian did together? I think you'll get a kick out of it, here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/anTUdWyKhdaffbc

[@jamesfetcho6315]

I'm backing the A. Paul also. Would love it. 👍

[@user-si9fx4xb6v]

I remember those days fondly, Highlander: The Series is one of my all-time favorite tv shows. I rarely missed an episode when it aired on USA network. Got a replica of Duncan Macleod's Katana at home, along with one of the score albums and some of the tie in novels produced when the show was airing. Watched a few episodes of Renegade as well, quite enjoyed what I saw. Going to revisit more of the episodes here on You Tube now that the show is here to enjoy. Also, I must say Reno Raines has good taste in firearms carrying a Sig Sauer P226 both as his duty weapon as police detective and then as a bounty hunter.

[@GothamKnight84661]

Respect to Lorenzo on how hard he works in his acting and Martial Arts training. Can't wait for part 3.

[@TheRealest127]

Renegade was a GREAT Show that doesn’t get enough credit in my eyes.

[@DanielDraper-ki4hr]

I loved that show, and Lorenzo seems like a genuinely great guy.

[@MatrixCobretti]

Dude, what have you done to me!! I'm gonna be dying until you release part 3 lol! Great work man, this Lorenzo series is going to be legendary!

[@AccountantProOT]

Lorenzo Lamas is very underrated. Its a shame he hasn't put out a lot of stuff after Renegade, and if he did, I am not aware of it. Looking forward to part 3. Take care. Rick

[@robertnguyen9493]

I remember watching the show The Renegade with my Aunt Pudd. She really enjoyed this show and I remember she liked Lorenzo Lamas and I enjoyed it to, but sharing that with her is a great childhood memory for me. Watching The Renegade and The Highlander; so thank you Lorenzo Lamas.

Damn Love this series. The stories, the costumes especially Reno Rains ,the vehicles especially the Hummer H1, Chayane's Jeep Renegade and Reno's Harley are iconic. Love those hair styles. Lorenzo brother your Series comes first thing in my mind when somebody asks me what is my favorite TV series.Thanks for bringing him on the show. This interview of 16 minutes felt so short ,can watch him talking for more than 2 hours . Please send the message to him that he is so criminally underrated and how much we fans love him. Wish i could hug him and tell him that.Love from india.

[@cyberdoll6912]

Legendary

[@christianstreit950]

I used to love Renegade growing up. Lorenzo occures very reasonable and down to earth when he speaks about his work. -Good to see, because in another interview he opened up on his political views and called president Biff the most inclusive president America ever had - lol! To me that was almost like the death of my childhood hero and I think Vince Black as a real life character would kick his butt for that! I don't remember if this was before or or after the big incident in the capital... Maybe that was just a phase following Lorenzo's divorces and other personal struggles, because a crisis tends to shift our view on things, not always to the better. However in this interview he seems to be well together and not in any way extreme, also very humble. I wish him all the best! Thanks for the enlightening inter - view!

[@Wolverine626]

Loved the "Renegade" motorcycle, such a cool look.

[@hit47n]

To be honest I forgot about Renegade it’s been so long now. We did not have cable tv, so whenever I could watch that show it was a good day. It’s up there on the list with “Airwolf, A-Team, Walker Texas Ranger” among others. Thanks again for the great content!

[@kevinholsclaw3318]

Renegade was a tremendous show and Lorenzo demonstrated some high level martial arts technique.

[@Wolverine626]

One thing the 90s wasn't short on was leading male stars with Action roles that had long hair: Lorenzo Lamas, Kevin Sorbo, Adrian Paul, Jason David Frank, and Steven Seagal.

[@bkh3218]

wow. amazing revelations about Renegade

[@suburbiajones2268]

Return of the renegade. That was a great interview Viking

This is such a fascinating interview! I just knew that Lorenzo would have crazy good stories and insights into the behind the scenes of Renegade!

[@VikingSamurai]

Yes, I was very pleased with this interview, and I think you'll like part 3 the most!

[@MatrixCobretti]

@@VikingSamurai I have a feeling you're right!

[@Sirch100precent]

I loved Renegade, feel the same way as you VS. He was so legit on film with his martial arts and inspiring like JCVD. Can't believe he's 65!! Quick question, do you remember Raven ? The show with Jeffery Meek in Hawaii? His on screen fights were awesome too.. then Walker Texas Ranger had to replace it .. I was pissed!

[@MatrixCobretti]

Raven was awesome! I love that show, it's my favorite 90s action series second only to Renegade. It's too bad Jeff Meek never got the credit he deserved. His mixing of Taekwondo and Aikido made for some unique fight scenes and his personality was very appealing. I'd love to see VS interview him, he's very fan-friendly. I love Walker but I really wish we could've had both instead of just that. Raven had a ton of potential.

[@Sirch100precent]

@@MatrixCobretti Yep , I agree 100 percent! I know he would love to talk more about Raven too.. the podcasts I've seen him on mostly only care about his Mortal Kombat involvement. I actually live in Waikiki now where most of Raven was filmed!

[@MatrixCobretti]

@@Sirch100precent I know brother, it sucks that the other podcasts always cut him off when he tries to go deep about Raven. He seems to really want to talk about it, but hasn't been able to find a good platform. It'd be a dream come true if VS would reach out to him. That's cool that you are living near the Raven filming locations, it looked beautiful on the show. I'm watching Magnum PI right now (The original with Tom Selleck, not the lame remake). Do you know if that was filmed in Waikiki as well?

[@Sirch100precent]

@@MatrixCobretti Yes , much of Magnum was filmed in the same areas. I actually did a filming location for Raven video a few years ago.. you can probably find it easy.

[@MatrixCobretti]

@@Sirch100precent Cool, thanks for the info! I'll definitely look for that, I'd like to see it.

Great interview, miss the masculinity of the 90s. Aikido has its place and should be respected. Too many trash it, as if it's not beneficial to the arts. Beyond that, today's entertainment has gone downhill. Bring back the masculinity!

[@Trick-Framed]

I remember when Renegade started. I was into keeping up with shows back then. Being as I had watched the the first few episodes I figured i'd stick to it for a while. It was a good show, interesting, really attractive women like Kathleen Kinmont, Sandra Dee Robinson, Leah Remini and the occasional martial artist, like Michael Jai White. The only issue I ever had with the show is that Lamas wasn't grimey enough to come off as an actual biker. He was too clean cut and not ugly. He never even had so much as dirt under his fingernails or twisted hair from riding sans helmet. It was something that could take me out of the immersion Otherwise, a good show!

[@VikingSamurai]

He was an actual biker though in real life lol

[@Trick-Framed]

@@VikingSamurai There is a HUGE difference between an 80s outlaw biker and a "Wild Hog" on the weekends. If that's the case, my 71 year old father is a biker. He owns a Harley too. But that is my opinion. Have you ever met a Hell's Angel? A Gypsy Joker or even an east coast Pagan? If you have, you know what an "outlaw biker" is. If you have not? You have no idea.
