Spoiler!
I am 10000% on board with you. The first season was the most enjoyable thing I've seen in a long time and they just nailed reference after reference from the original movie. And I genuinely felt like I could easily recommend that to anyone - fans of the movie or not - and they'd like it as well.

I thought the second season was still good, but I felt I was giving it an upscore just given my love for the movie. And I'm not sure it would have the same wider appeal.

I'm absolutely excited about a third season, but my expectations aren't tremendously high. And I also really hope they wrap things up.

Mr Miyagi taught me everything!

Are you sure?


Now this is becoming cliche

Just have Miyagi's previous pupil be a better practitioner.

My thoughts exactly. I went to watch this with the attitude it was strictly for nostalgia purposes and fully expected it to be corny and cheesy.

I couldn't have been more wrong, I am utterly shocked how great it is. This is truly a fantastic show, very well written. The acting is terrific from the main characters down to the bit players.

10/10, can't wait for season 3. I'm actually thinking about re-watching the first two seasons again even though I just finished them. It's that good.

Wife and I sat down and began watching the show....seemed a little weird (in a nostalgic) sort of way....Sorry, but the acting was a tad suspect on occasion, but over all, for guys like me, that enjoyed the movies way back when - it wasn't bad.

Looking forward to the next season...Loved that Dodge Challenger though

Gorgeous automobile..

You aren't wrong as the acting is not fantastic, but there is this weird (in a good way) mixture of 80s/90s production and storytelling with modern dialogue that is so addicting. I feel like I am watching a TV show from the 90's until someone says "shit" out loud.

Indeed. Ralph Machio never really impressed me as an actor - Pat Morita made those movies for me. He was a pretty damned good actor.

Don't get me wrong - for me, it was like a trip down 80s memory lane.

I will check out season 3, but they should probably bring it to a conclusion at the end of 3.

If you look on IMDb, neither of the headliners from the movies have done a lot of acting since then, and it was mainly B movies or television show appearances. The writing is corny in spots, but I like the overall gist and how it's going.

I’m in the middle of season 2 now getting caught up. Pretty cool they got the rest of Johnnys old Cobrai Kai buddies from the original movie. They even mentioned that Dutch was in prison as to why he wasn’t there.

I love all the callbacks to the original. It’s really well done.

The only issue I have is would Kreese really continue to be a hard ass and hate Daniel 30+ years later? He’s such a comical one dimensional villain. Although they did try and give him a little depth with his homeless vet backstory.

Just finished season 1 last night. The parent in me hopes that Daniel can help Robby and Johnny reconcile at some point. I also hope that Johnny realizes his mistakes with Miguel, even though his intentions were good, and works to correct them. I hated seeing Kreese at the end. I really hope that Johnny doesn't digress.

Wonder if Robby is going to get in trouble for breaking Miguel's back?
