Cobra Kai

Problem is he was typecast and never given a chance to shine. In, Cobra Kai it's his show and he shows a side of Johnny that is a true human experience.

Even though Cobra Kai is corny sometimes, I still love it. Growing up a fan of Karate Kid makes this all the more better. Who would've thought that the worst part of the show would be the LaRusso family? Daniel is obnoxious and it's weird how every other word out of his mouth is about Mr. Miyagi. No one should be that obsessed over anything, especially another person. The son is annoying AF and the daughter, Sam is one of the worst casting decisions on all of tv. Not because she's a bad actress, she's as good as anyone on the show (outside of Zabka). The reason is bc she doesn't have an athletic bone in her entire body. Her kicks and punches don't look like they would hurt a new born baby. On top of that she just doesn't look the part. Again, not a bad actress and wouldn't mind her if she was on a show that doesn't require her trying to be athletic. Some of the fight scenes in general are laugh out loud funny, they look like something from the most generic Nickelodeon children's show. Not all of them but a lot. Having said all that, I still really enjoy the show. Now the best part BY FAR is Johnny Lawrence, played by William Zabka. Just look at the reviews and almost all of them agree he's easily the best part. Besides being hilarious, he has the best character arc on the show. I really hope this leads to bigger things for Zabka bc he deserves it. I'm glad to see he's getting a lot of love.

This series brought me back to my childhood and how much I loved the movies and characters growing up. It surprised how well the characters are brought up to date and now involve the younger generation. There's still a lot to be taught, and learned.

Cobra Kai is so much better than I thought it would be. I grew up a Karate Kid fan but wasn't sure what to expect from this and thought it would be some cheap kiddy money grab. I'm glad I was wrong. It's so much better than it has any business being, especially William Zabka! He absolutely is the star of this show as Johnny Lawrence. You root for him on this more than Daniel (Ralph Macchio).

Cobra Kai season 6 started off a bit silly, which is expected, but those final five episodes of the series really stuck the landing and showed why we loved this show so much. It had action, emotion, drama, and a lot of heart. We get to see near-perfect conclusions to these characters we've been following for the last 6 years and redemption for characters that have been a long time coming.

In the end, Cobra Kai season 6 sent this world off in a great way, with a near perfect way to end the series in the final 5 episodes that really gave us a satisfying and enjoyable conclusion.

The series overall was a fantastic return to many of our childhoods, giving us some corny, silly, fun with great heart behind it all.
