I just started watching this last night and got 3 episodes in, an instant classic. Cobra Kai is what my life was missing but I never knew it. I used to think I was a Danny, but I am a Johnny!

Hope y’all like it too.

it's great. Season 2 is even better, especially the later fight scenes

I saw the first 2 episodes last year when it was premiered on “YouTube Red” or whatever it was called. Seemed like a cool show, but not cool enough to pay a YouTube subscription fee :lol:

Oh nice. I’ll definitely check it out. I always thought the premise that -Daniel was actually the bully- was an interesting take. Not sure if this series actually plays out that way, but I suppose I can find out by watching it.
it's on netflix now since google gave up on show/film producing.

It plays with the concept of memory being fallible/malleable, where Johnny remembers events one way and Daniel another. It makes for some great drama, and the interwoven flashbacks and solid fight sequences/comedy make it quite enjoyable. It's a far better show than it has any right to be lol

Just binged watched the first season and I don't really even watch TV anymore. It's a good series. Seems a bit more realistic in terms of charater backgrounds and such. I totally can empathize with Johnny's life. I like everyone is kind of the good guy and the bad guys.

I just started Umbrella Academy, and the poor acting is grating on me, so maybe I’ll switch. I didn’t think this would be worthwhile, but it sounds like it’s going to be good, based on what you guys are saying.

umbrella academy starts off relatively slow but it gets better. The first few episodes are kind of a slog.

it is a slog at first. But it’s worth it.

I actually enjoyed the 2nd season more than the first.

It's obviously geared for kids but still pretty good. The Cobra Kai actors seem to have good acting skills. Not sure if they're good at acting like teenage characters or if it's because they're actually teenagers. I'm gonna have to watch season 3 when it comes though.
