Favorite moment is when that one kid did the virtue signal speech during the tournament and Johnny just looks at his student and tells him, “ kick that pansy bitch in the face.”
I watched it on YouTube back when I used them for cable and thought it was great. The guy who plays Johnny had an absolutely masterful performance in that series. That guy got typecast as the prep/jock antagonist in shit back in the ‘80’s but had he not been typecast he’d probably be one of the biggest actors today. He’s way better than douchebags like Clooney.
Ironically (maybe not ironic, but at least interesting), I think there's a solid chance his return (and possibly even the entire concept for Cobra Kai) was the result of How I Met Your Mother, and Barnie/Neil Patrick Harris' character was convinced that Johnny Lawrence/William Zapka's character was the good guy in the Karate Kid, and they brought Zapka on the show (I think during the last season as a wedding gift for Barney, he then makes him his best man, iirc... been a while)
Cobra Kai is based. If you haven't seen it yet, watch it. Download it so you can avoid Netflix.
