All this time later, and I still hate Sam.

Not even in a "love to hate" way, like Kreese. Like, she's a shitty character. I still say half of the shit that happened is her fault - if not directly, then for the simple fact that all she has to do is speak up and clarify something to make things even somewhat better.

And on the off chance she *does* sack up and try to take at least some personal responsibility, the person she tries to talk to cuts her off and tells her "it's not your fault", when it absolutely was, and lets her off the hook.

So in this season, she hypes everyone up for a fight, and even starts scrapping with GUYS bigger than her... but she gets PTSD over a broad that cut her arm once enough to go hide in a corner and let her "friend" get his arm broken? The fuck out of here.

She bugs me. Bugs me a lot. Everyone else is at least charming or villainous (or both) in their own way. She's just an annoying dungheap, and still supposed to be one of the main protagonists.

She's the Cobra Kai Sakura.


On the flip side: Allie.

I'm glad they didn't go where it looked like it was going to go. Instead, they had her come in and become the special guest referee and the voice of reason. That was amazing.

Ol Dirty Dastard

I like pretty much all the characters though. At first, I thought I'd be a bit turned off by Kreese--as though he didn't fit the mold of the show. But then he was awesome and I regretted ever thinking that.

Also in Frasier, the Crane Brothers’ bullies were the Kreasels - and I wonder if that “Kreese” sound has any literary connection with violence. Or maybe it’s the harsh consonant sound of the k combined with rhyming with grease (to suggest he is a greaseball).

There's a difference between dealing with consequences and just internalizing them and hoping everything just gets better around her by osmosis. She does a lot of the latter throughout the entire show run. I was actively rooting for Tory to cut her again. "Cut that bitch!" People should not want to root against a main protagonist. But I did. And I don't regret it. I want Tory to seriously injure Sam before she goes through some sort of redemption arc. Fuck Sam all the way up while she's full on heel!

I don't care how many of you here think she's jackoff material... I just think she is a jackoff, and that's not hot.

"This show about warring Karate Dojos in the Valley isn't realistic enough for me"

What I'm trying to convey is that sometimes the show goes overboard and it takes me out of it...like I have to take a moment to acknowledge how bonkers this show is. Not saying that it's a bad thing. They're obviously aware of what they're presenting. But Hawk just walking into LaRusso's house like a fucking chode, instigating the big fight, and doing a fucking face turn was hella goofy. My comment was a knee jerk reaction to how insane the sequence was. I'm pretty sure I've had similar reactions to other moments in the series as well.

I find it interesting that after all that’s happened it was that moment that got people. The thing that made me lol the most was Miguel not being paralyzed in 3 episodes and then somehow being able to whoop Kyler after getting the shit kicked out of him.

Or how about Kreese trying to murder both Daniel and Johnny only to then be like “I guess we solve this the old fashioned way.... a tournament in the valley.”

Miguel coming out of the coma and removing so fast was insane but needed. I found myself not enjoying the show as much without Miguel and Johnny. Miguel is easily the MVP of the show.

While I enjoyed Hawk’s face turn, I think Demetri embracing him as a friend so soon was unrealistic. They had been feuding for quite some time, and Hawk had broken his arm, wrecked his science project, and tried to beat the shit out of him during the school brawl. Oh, and he had poured beer on his head at Moon’s party during the Summer. Agreed with the sentiment in this thread this show is hilariously unrealistic at times, but that’s a part of the appeal. For example Atleast. I think the show as a whole is awesome.

I just finished season 2 and had to stay up and watch the first episode of S3


I'm not sure if it's the nostalgia or not. I'm entering my late 30's. Karate Kid was a huge part of my life. I loved 1, 2 and 3.


It really saddens me that Pat Morita died and is not a part of this .


They are nailing everything so far ( i'm only 2 seasons in ).



I think more 80's movies could do this. Whoever is behind this is doing amazing. Casting is amazing. Storylines are being brought along so well ( Hawk).



The only thing I didnt love is the final episode and the huge fight in the school. Totally unrealistc. If this were my high school, so many black kids would be arrested and i'm just being for real right now.


Other than that, I'm about to binge the 3rd season on Youtube and i'm excited man. I love this show.

The first season was gold. They should have just made a movie instead of letting it die a slow death like pretty much most TV shows. That’s why TV is shit. That’s why only people who watch television are fat, unhappy housewives and grown men who post on Internet message boards about a fake sport.

I feel like they should probably get Miguel a personal trainer/nutritionist between seasons just so he comes in looking more legit. I'm having a hard time believing he can withstand the rigours of Eagle Fang training.

Ol Dirty Dastard
01-02-2022, 01:30 PM
I saw the whole season but'll hold off on spoilers as everyone catches up.

I will say--Mary Mouser is very cute but dear god, she is the weakest actor of the "main" kids. Very Disney.

Hawk and Dmitri seem the most natural to me, though I'd need to rewatch all of it again since I binge-watch, making it impossible to have really good judgement.

Miguel has a lot of good moments but sometimes falters and comes off a little too hokey.

Tanner Buchannan really performed well this season after feeling a bit "off" for the past 2 after I liked his performance in season 1.

Peyton List is growing on me. Feels way less terrible of an actor than before.

The new black kid whose name escapes me I thought was very very very stellar. And same with LaPusso. For their age, both performances felt honest and unforced.


The problem I find (and there aren't too many on the show, given its tone and aim) is a lot of the other kids are used almost strictly to info-dump--or maybe some of them are so stilted in delivery that's how it comes off. There was also that new girl on Eagle Fang who sounded like she was reading her lines off a teleprompter. In fairness, you're going to have mixed results when so much of the cast is teenagers, so it's unfair to shit all over it.

As far as the adult cast, there aren't too many weaknesses. Maybe Miguel's mom.

Was really impressed all around though. Martin Kove is really maximizing this opportunity. Good for him. And I really enjoyed Terry Silver.

Seanny One Ball
01-02-2022, 01:37 PM
The black kid kept pulling this really stupid scared face at the start, which rapidly evolved into an even more annoying cocky face. He’s the new Peyton List. This is what happens when they broadstroke characters early on and have to flesh them out properly later.

I understand the need for it, it’s just a bit much sometimes.

Stingray was fucking great though, he should be cherished.

Seanny One Ball
01-02-2022, 01:43 PM
Robby was pretty amazing at the end there btw, that was a genuinely well staged and acted scene which broke from the cheese in a way I appreciated.
There needs to be a bit more realism, let the actors work a little bit more naturally. It’s always good to see relatable drama between the teen gang fights.

That being said, that fight between Robby and Hawk was fantastic. I loved the mirroring. Quality.

Ol Dirty Dastard
01-02-2022, 01:45 PM
I dunno though, that kid (re: black scared/cocky face) had a fuckload of dialogue and it never at one point seemed like he was trying to remember his lines, which puts him ahead of probably 95% of the other kids lol.

Agreed. the biggest problem on the show by far is when they move away from the realism. They usually do a very good job of reeling it back in, but last season I thought was the worst as far as the OTT nature went. This one, because they brought the focus to the tournament, it seemed to not stretch credulity as much and felt more grounded. Still some awful, cheesy moments but I don't know if it's possible to avoid them given the nature of the show.

Terry Silver turning full blown cartoon villain by the end there was jarring but nice to see. He was the better bad guy in the original Karate Kid trilogy, he was just so ridiculously nefarious that if he hadn’t done something totally mental by the end of this season, there would be no point bringing him back.

Ol Dirty Dastard

Wasn't there a call earlier the ref made a "mistake" on? Someone was out of bounds but he called it a point? Also, you can only make bad judgement calls if the opportunity presents itself. He can't call a random point when nothing happened. Plus, the female match was the decision match and Silver just wanted Cobra Kai to win.

It's almost as if the actress that plays Sam was being punished. They literally went out of there way to make me be like " FUCK YOU SAM! " and later in the season. " CRY LITTLE SHIT FILLED DOUCHE! ". They wrote her character as if she was the 2nd or 3rd villain of the season. I did not understand that at all.

The point was that if you let hatred take control then you become what you hate.

It’s an oldie but a goodie.

I think it's more Woke than that. I thing it's about Sam getting her period and starting to think about Juan Pablo's 7 inches being slammed her. And she got distracted.

Cobra Kai is back and the first episode was great, so fuck off if you’re a hater.

Anybody that knows anything knows Mike Barnes is the holy grail of comebacks after they got Terry Silver.
Terry Silver wrote a few great episodes of some of your favourite shows btw.

Only issue with ending it from here is that I thought the show was supposed to be about reinventing Cobra Kai. So far, it's exactly the same as it always was. IMO you need a season where the dojo is finally redeemed, given it's the name of the damned show.

That is true, but there are no real villain characters now, everyone is friends.

I guess you could have the female antagonist do something but her character was extremely boring.

Ol Dirty Dastard
09-14-2022, 10:08 AM
The female antagonist has a connection with Kreese--as shown in the flashbacks when Silver and Kreese are training with her Dad. I assume the last season will pair them together, and I'm guessing they'll both turn babyface by season's end--after being heels for most of it--turning Cobra Kai into something good.

Cobra Kai has given me everything I ever asked for and slightly more. When I saw Mike Barnes fighting Chozen in the furniture shop I was so happy.

Cheese turned up to 11.
I’m nearly on the last episode.

As saccharine and cloying as the fan service could be in previous seasons, this season was BY far the most ramped up. They've earned it, though, and by god did they use all that real estate.

It was very on the nose and a lot of scenery was chewed, but as you told me early on in this endeavour…it’s the Karate Kid bro. Gon’ be cheesy.

Terry Silver’s addition was a guarantee of cartoonish evil, I have not been left disappointed by the fulfilment of my desires.
I wonder why other shows keep fucking me…

Every scene with Terry was wonderful. I really enjoy the actor. A big fan of Kreese, too.

It's funny to watch which characters are handled with care (aka the ones the writers like writing for) and who they struggle with or don't care about.

Amanda and Miguel's mom are written as two fuddy-duddies. Amanda has potential and the actress is super likeable but they have no clue what to do with her. So, they're either very concerned about Johnny, Daniel, the children, etc., or they are chockful of exposition.

The younger cast realllllly struggles but a lot of the dialogue written for them would make anybody look bad. That said, I root for the kids I'm supposed to root for and cheer against those I'm supposed to loathe. Despite some of the clunkiness, they're all relatable and I often enjoyed reruns of old-school 90210 so meh.

You only see quality work from the adults. Sometimes Ralph Macchio gets a bit schmaltzy but that's because--at this point--the writers have him going through a version of the same arc every season. AKA Keeping Miyagi Do open while keeping the childrens safe. So wtf can he do. I think he's a great actor and he's had a nice resurgence/renaissance. His best work I've seen is in The Deuce on HBO. And he's awesome on the show despite some overripe sentimental acting from time to time.

It seems to me the writers are most at home with Johnny, even if he's got nothing to do. I have a feeling he's their conduit. The guy who can say the things they want to say and make the non-PC jokes they feel they can't make anymore. Everything becomes more interesting when Johnny is around. He's also the most authentic-seeming character on the show and the one the audience most relates to (or at least I do).

And yeah, the villains get all the fun backstory stuff. Lots of room to chew scenery and be ridiculous yet awesome.

Chozen was easy because he's just a more polished, civilized version of Johnny.
