Cobra Kai. Have you seen it?
I don’t think that we have watched one single movie since the beginning of the year at our house. We have however watched quite a few shows and I thought that you might need some recommendations by this point in all of our lives. 😐
If you’ve seen the Karate Kid movies from the 80’s you will know these characters well. Or think you do. I resisted watching this initially. Denton had already binged both seasons that are available as I write this and he asked me to watch it with him. I wanted nothing to do with it. My reading time, along with what time I’m willing to give up for TV time is VERY valuable to me and I’m very, very selective in what I’m willing to sit through.
He asked me to watch the first episode and if I didn’t like it he wouldn’t ask me again. So I capitulated and wow. WOW. I was hooked. This show picks up more than 30 years after the original Karate Kid ended. You would think that the draw for me would be Daniel LaRusso, The Karate Kid, right? Nope. This show drew me in from the first three minutes around Johnny. And Johnny is the reason that I have kept watching it episode after episode.
I can apply a lot of my adjectives to this show to give you an idea of what you are in for: excellent, corny, hilarious, satisfying, melodramatic – it has teenagers in it, entertaining, and sentimental in each episode. I think you should go watch the first episode and let me know what you think!
I can’t wait to see what happens in season three.
You can watch it on Netflix, Amazon or YouTube.
You can find all of the other shows we’ve watched lately, here if you are interested!
