It's on netflix now (used to be on youtube only). It's the perfect show for what it is trying to be.

The basic premise of it being a sequel to a 34 year old movie with the same actors reprising their roles and keeping a very similar style, it just shouldn't work, but it does, and it does it so well
I binged it all on YouTube TV in summer 2019 and I'm real tempted to rewatch it all now. And probably again when season 3 comes next year ... Copied to Clipboard!

Can you pick it up from the show or do you need to watch the movies?I'd say you probably should watch the first movie, and then watch the series. There's a few tie ins for sure. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign, Twenty million starving and writhing in pain. =~=; Vicious_Dios Original - https://tinyurl.com/y9fpdoll ...

Can you pick it up from the show or do you need to watch the movies? I'm not 100% confident on this because I did watch the original movie a lot as a kid, but I think it explains enough for those who didn't see it to still enjoy it I say it because as of the end of season 2 they only barely referenced the second movie and have had no references that I know of to the third. I think all 3 movies are on Netflix anyway though ... Copied to Clipboard!

I noticed that it was on Netflix earlier today. I'm glad, cause it really is good and maybe that will open more people up to giving it a try.

Never got around to it.I went into it expecting to drop it after 3 episodes or so and wound up watching both seasons in 3 days. Something about it is very nostalgic, wholesome, and engaging. It's well created around the original films, and captures the feel of the era without being forced or over the top. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign, Twenty million starving and writhing in pain. =~=; Vicious_Dios Original - https://tinyurl.com/y9fpdoll ...

Can you pick it up from the show or do you need to watch the movies? I don't think you need to watch the movies. My girlfriend hadn't ever seen the movies and she enjoyed the show a lot. There is definitely some references that would add to your enjoyment of it though. Daniel acting like he was going to do what Mr. Miagi did to heal him in the movie was pretty funny, there's an ice breaking scene which is another callback, etc. Small things like that that you would understand but if you knew the full reference would take it to another level. Nothing major other than knowing that the two main characters were rivals in the first movie, with Cobra Kai being the antagonist dojo. --- "I can eat 50 eggs." -Cool Hand Luke ...

Before anyone watches the show, the should watch at least the first 2 movies that way they get the references and know what's going on.

Yeah I'd definitely recommend watching the first two movies at least. Mr. Miyagi is such a cool character and isn't physically present in Cobra Kai but still a huge part of the show.

Honestly, I love Karate Kid 3 the best. The second movie is sort of boring, but you learn more about the characters. The first is still great of course, but the silliness of the third movie and the plot as a whole makes it for me.
