But like I said in a previous post...this can't go on for much longer. All former major characters have made their cameos with exception of Terry Silver and (Bad Boy) Mike Barnes, which it looks like Kreese's phone call at the end leaves that door open. Once they come back, once Daniel/Johnny defeat Cobra Kai in the tournament, the story no longer needs to go on after that. What else is there to tell?
The creators announced a 6 season arc a few weeks ago. [Reply]

Money is to tell.
My guess, season 4 is build up to the tourney. New cobra kai students and silver or the student. Robbie switches sides. Last episodes are early rounds.
Season 5, starts with last three fights or championship. They lose, their dojo's are done and kids are mulling around with no dojo. Chick from kk4 shows up with kids. They form new dojo.
Season 6, all hell breaks loose and good guys win.
Wildcard, the girl from kk4 and bad guy from kk3 are exes or married.
So the black girl from cobra kai disappeared from season 3 because they didn't have a story for her. They are hoping to get her back for s4. [Reply]
I mentioned earlier, I wasn't able to endure KKIII...let alone KK4. So these characters will be new to me. Still think they are going to kill this thing. They should stop after next season. [Reply]
After seeing this show listed on Netflix forever and a Day, and several rounds of thinking "maybe I should watch this"....wife and I finally started it last week. and ended up binging the entire thing.
absolutely love it. I have VERY low expectations going in, so maybe that helped. I liked how it doesn't really try to take itself too seriously; and I love how it seems to exist in this Valley / Karate universe / not based in reality. Just overall entertaining. Couldn't believe the number of original characters they rounded up / got them to agree to do it.
Zabka is absolutely awesome. I was shocked at how well he pulled this off.
as others have said, it does tend to feel a bit campy, but I reminded myself that I don't think their goal was to make some sort of serious series. The sound track is great too.
Granted, the wife and I are huge KK fans (not so much after 1 or 2) so I think that helps / pulls on the nostalgia strings. So glad we decided to watch it. Zabka makes it worth it to me. [Reply]

Oh fuck no.
I just binge watched all 3 seasons this weekend.
And while i enjoyed most of it, and wished i hadn't put it off for so long...the story is getting really fucking lame.
All of the, "He mad at me, he isn't mad at me, he mad at me" shit is getting real old.
If we're making a 2nd trip around a love triangle, then it's fucking played out.
After the 1st season i was all, "man, sucks this is only 3 seasons".
After the 3rd season i was all, "this really shoulda been over in 3 seasons, i can't believe it's getting more seasons".
Between Lawrence and LaRusso in this constant, "i respect you, i hate you" limbo every other episode, Robby being a whiny lame ass bitch (get over it, kid) and the LaRusso girl not figuring out who she wants to swap spit with next, the writing got real stale real fast.
And season 3 already told you that more of the same lame shit is coming in season 4.
I love this series and hate it at the same time. [Reply]
