Season one started out very rusty and its last episode was a bit meh. This season didnt have any of the rustiness and the finale was a piece of art.

Interesting cliffhanger. In some ways I’m embarrassed I’m watching a show with pretty teens (Home and Away with Karate), but nostalgia makes it a guilty pleasure. Stingray stole the show...camouflage/hidden attack to win the mountain challenge, taking a chick to a kid’s party, taping 2 forties to his hands and struggling to get away when the PoPo arrive (“my mum will kill me”), the nod and wink as he’s breaking up the hall fight...just lmfao!

Yeah, that’s what made it funny. He went in to “break it up” as a potential school “security guard”, then wink and nod, he’s helping his Cobra Kai brethren...
KK3 also better than the Jayden Smith remake...
I'm not quite as enthusiastic as everyone else about this season.
It gets frustrating to watch when so much of the character development and conflict is based on confusion or misunderstanding. It becomes really obvious and predictable after a while.
I am actually finding Larusso's wife to be really annoying now. She was cute in the first season, but now is just kind of a drag. Their marital conflict was so lame and contrived.
That said, Johnny continues to be incredible. Zabka's acting is on another level compared to everyone else in the series. His range of emotions and how he so freely moves between comedy and drama is perfect. Some of his unexpected one liners like 'send it to the internet' are so great.
The final fight scene and how it was largely one take was way better than I would have expected.
The season felt incomplete, like it was more like part 1 of 2 or something.

haha got ya. I didn't get that at first, I watched the last few eps post workout from the gym. Trained myself silly. I thought he was winking at the Head master etc
Helping out Cobra lmao makes sense now. I missed the obvious.
Larussos wife was hilarious and needed to put the story in perspective so it didnt become lame and unbelievable. although i agree the marital issues was a little contrived but understandable given how stupid larusso was acting and ignoring his job.
She killed it at the double date." Ok we are going to do this are we". We seriously were rolling on the floor with that line.

3 was awesome. Silver and Barnes were an awesome duo, Bad Boy was just that. He was up a few notches in the intensity department. Would have murdered Johnny in a fight, and Laruso really if not for that lame carta crap.
Kreese, Silver and Barnes in the dojo scaring laruso was comical. So stupid years later looking back, but it's funny as ****.
Was anyone else annoyed seeing will smiths name keep appearing on the credits. And a pinkett which i gather is some kind of relation.
Like the party scene where he invites this women to a teen party and she is like what? Then shes cheering the drinking contest and he shuts her down for cheering Miyagi do. Then he has tapped alcohol bottles to his hands and cant escape the room when the police arrived.

In the job interview: do you have experience?
No actual experience, but I did win for the red headbands in the mountain battle

Johhnys 80s pop video fantasy of Miguels mum was also hilarious for being unexpected and completely 80s. Johhny really needs to see a pyschologist given how stuck in the past he is.

Johnny on making a promo video...”and use that song” (I forget actual song)
I don’t think we could afford that song...
“What are you talking about? I have the tape”
Yes I’m paraphrasing, but you get the brilliant essence of Johnny Lawrence...
“A smart watch? Well I have a smart...phone...it’s an Ericsson!”
“Hi, this is my smartphone answering machine...”

Stingray was also the best part of the I,Tonya movie
"How do you guys know each other."
"They have war-ing karate dojos."
Boom
Larussos wife is gold.

Even ignoring the police I just dont get the logic behind Stingray taping bottles to both hands.
He is getting pissed but he has removed his avenue for peeing. How the fu** was he going to pee?

Not to mention he’s an adult, so he shouldn’t really be concerned about the cops
That's the challenge. It's a drinking game called Edward Fortyhands
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Fortyhands
Marshall also references it in HIMYM
im suprised anyone rated that entire character.
It turned the show into a novelty.
Although Johnny's 'chubbs' line after Stingray tried to 'flip the script' almost made him a worthwhile character.
