Cobra Kai

Forums:

This show is fantastic!

We love it!

It doesn't hurt that we just watched Karate Kid a couple of weeks ago. 

 

Been staying up late the last few nights and will probably do the same this evening. 

 

I'm still trying to figure out whom I'm rooting for. 

 

Maybe just about everybody, with one or two exceptions. 

 

Good stuff for my entire family. 

I saw an advertisement for this. Is that the bully from the Karate Kid movie.

Kinda favors him.

"The 12", a Belgium thriller on Netflix is by far the best series i've seen all year. 

It's campy, funny, cheesy, badass, heart warming and thought provoking.

The last episode of season 2 is crazy.

Yes, it's Johnny, the bully. He's a great character in it.

We started watching Cobra Kai last night at made it through Episode 5.  Good stuff with an awful 80s hair rock soundtrack.

I never saw the original Karate Kid but there are enough flashbacks sequences that you don't have to see it to understand and enjoy this series.

good stuff, pleasantly surprised.

johnny is a coors guy.

 

When Johnny orders beer in a bar or restaurant, he orders "Banquet." That's badass 

Wow I can't believe I'm seeing this thread. We just binged both seasons . Much better than I thought it was going to be. Looking forward to season 3.

you'd get a lot more out of it if you watched the original.  not so much part 2. although, some characters from the sequel are scheduled to return for season 3.

one of the best shows i've seen in a while.   the way if shakes up the relationship dynamics is very well done.  you're not sure who you want to like or hate. well, except for one guy.

 

 

Last night I watched Karate Kid 2.

 

Not the best, but adds a little understanding of some of the references in the series.

 

Can't wait for season 3

I love how you see he past from Johnny's perspective, where Daniel stole his woman, threw the first punch, and was generally the bully. I could see how he could see it that way.

Let me pose it this way: there's only one clear "bad guy" in the Cobra Kai series.

^^^ the theory that Johhny was actually the 'good guy' has been floating around the internet for years.

the writers of this show really opened up and expanded that premise masterfully.

My favorite character is Daniel's wife. The way she deals with the stupid rivalry cracks me up. 

I watched a couple of interviews, and Season 3 is supposed to be crazy.

Watched two episodes.  Ready for more.

I remember seeing the original movie at the theater.

me too.

i left the theater throwing karate chops.

 

Every episode and a half or so I can't control myself and have to scream:

"Karate Owns this Town!!!"

Spoiler alert.

 

Season three is not as good as one and two. Getting very repetitive. 

^^^^

Yeah.  We watched about four episodes last night and turned it off early.   Still good, but not that good.   

well how many ways can teens and middle aged dudes kick each others asses?laugh
