Believe women.

Marathoned through this today. Terry Silver coming full circle back to being the most OTT villain was fun, there were times I wasn't sure where it was going to end up. His character makes a lot of sense when you look at him as a mentally ill man who quit taking his meds.

I'm excited for the next season to see a string of Cobra Kai franchise dojos all through the Valley, and to see if we get a fusion of Miyagi-do and Eagle Fang Kung Fu.

That said, they need to rap this up as the young cast is aging rapidly and are not going to be believable as high schoolers much longer.

They’ve stepped that back and said they are actively working on season 6 but “planning the endgame” which is vague enough that it could be a few more seasons

At one point they were talking spin-offs. I kind of assume the main series will now continue with the younger characters they brought in last season. I also assume we will get an ending for a lot of original cast. If they really are planning on doing spin-offs, I hope we get a college Binary Brothers buddy movie.

They can immediately start filming a new series set 7 years later, after they've all graduated college.

I'm not sure any spin-offs will work. I really think they're nearing the end of the road of the endless soap-opera cycle of betrayals and defections - this season in particular felt like they were moving everyone towards their endgame for the original cast.

e: it is also getting harder and harder for these actors to pretend to be 17 year olds, particuarly when they are standing next to actual kids like Dallas Young.

I dunno but I hope he gets a shot at some serious roles moving forward. He's real good and I suspect he has range.

Yeah a young black actor pops up and the entire internet says he should be Miles Morales.


Kid's not that great of an actor, but he's black so that's enough for nerd culture.

I saw Jon on Twitter say that the Jaden Smith movie is a different universe. Have you ruled out that one day, maybe in season 7 or 8, Dre Parker and Mr. Han come back from China?

Hurwitz: Yes, we've ruled that out completely. Jackie Chan is mentioned in season 1 of the show as a human, so I think in our world, Jackie Chan is an actor and a performer. If the characters on our show have seen a movie called The Karate Kid, they've seen that one.

Sure, but turn it entirely on his head. He realized he was an rear end in a top hat, went back to school, and had a great career as a child psychologist and social worker. Nothing nefarious, nothing evil. Now he's just a retired old social worker who comes in, gives some great advice in that smooth Michael Ironside voice, and is promptly ignored because this is an 80s action movie writ large.

If Swank got a fight scene lasting more than about a minute and a half it would be a step up from NKK. Seriously, they spend more time picking out a dress for her formal dance.

That doesn't really track with the story, though. Why would Daniel turn to a decent person out of desperation? Like, yeah, from a marketing perspective it would make a great teaser, but it wouldn't have made a lick of sense to bring her in that way.
