Many of my followers know me to believe Cobra Kai to be one of the best shows on right now. I'm not saying that it rivals Shakespeare in any kind of writing of genius, but it is fun, it knows how to give the viewer what he or she is looking for, and it builds characters.
The story goes on in season 4 with Cobra Kai taking on Johnny and Daniel as the combine dojos. Of course that doesn't go well but and those two fight....which can actually get old....but it gives reasons for great eighties jokes, hair band references, and Johnny to act like he slept through the last twenty years and woke up today learning how life works. It also gives the viewer the return of the Terry Silver character. A truly evil character from KK3....however most of the season just plays him as a PTSD whipping boy to John Crease.
I think the biggest problem with Cobra Kai as it goes on can be said about almost all shows as they go on, instead of conflict happening to our beloved characters, they create the conflict themselves by doing stupid things. Arrow got that way, Lucifer got that way, the Titans was that way from day one. You have to root for these guys and when they do nothing but stupid shit you eventually just want to slap the hell out of them.
That being said, it is tough to not binge watch the whole damn thing every time it comes out. Look out for Season 5 as even more blasts from the past come in to join the never ending battle between good and evil.
