Cobra Kai Season 5 is a showcase of the best elements of the series, despite a bit of roughness around the edges. The latest installment features some big laughs and impressive fights but also sheds a light on what's to come without feeling like it's just a set-up for the next season.
Crossing the streams with its sequels, the fifth season of "Cobra Kai" features heavy dollops of the second and third "The Karate Kid" movies while continue to carve out its own next-generation melodrama, all in extraordinarily nimble fashion. While it's not the best series on TV (OK, Netflix), there should be some kind of prize for the best revival culled from limited source material.

One of the most badass shows of all time. It has a great cast and the second I saw the entire first season I just got into it so badly. Season 5 was the best in my opinion and I can't wait for season 6. The storytelling is also very phenomenal and I liked how it impressively connects to the older movies.

I think this is one of the best TV shows lately. Kudos to YouTube for bringing them back and kudos to Netflix to continue it.

Call-backs to the movie are as ample as fans would demand. At the same time, the show refuses to wallow in the past, preferring to drag it screaming into the present. Cobra Kai will continue to thrill Eighties kids. But it is no museum piece and viewers insufficiently ancient to appreciate the totemic significance of phrases such as “wax on/wax off” will still get kick from it.
The finale points toward an endgame. And that finale is wonderful, wonderful, ridiculous, and wonderful: A high energy showdown for youth in revolt, alongside a never-more-sensitive portrayal of middle-aged reminiscence. It reaffirms Cobra Kai as one of the cleverest reboots in our nostalgia-drunk era.
Even if Cobra Kai is a little too in love with its evocations of the movie, there is still something compelling about seeing Johnny and Daniel back together, particularly because both men haven’t changed in key ways and have different ways of grappling with and denying that.
This series has an underdog spirit of its own, even if it's not quite the triumphant crane kick it could be.
Cobra Kai’s overt nostalgia is of a simplistic dudebro variety, marked by Johnny’s neanderthal attitude and routine references to the likes of Rocky III, Bloodsport and Top Gun. Yet more objectionable is its regressive sitcom form, which reduces its comedy and romantic/familial/peer dilemmas to a fourth-grade level. For a season or two, that might have lent the show a quaint charm. At this point, however, it’s just a sign of everlasting immaturity.
Best series ever. It not only respects the classic films but makes them even better.

Dawson's Creek with karate. I have friends who's opinions I respect that like this show for how bad it is. I can't get past the lame acting, lame storylines, the once original neat idea from eons ago turned into some dumb drawn out soap opera about high school drama. I really like when Daniel was looking for his daughter and she was at Johnny's house. Daniel was at the door asking for her. Johnny says "Yeah, she's here. Whats it to you?" Hahahaha, too good.
