    I am, too, but I was pulling for the kid due to his tough background. Then I watched the last episode of Season 2 last weekend.

      So.. If any of you are interested in the FB letter Johnny was going to send to Ali, here is a screenshot of it and I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED!!

      It’s the little things like this and the interaction with Chozen that make it enjoyable and nostalgic..

        Same. Though I was sorta out towards the end of Season 1. But what I saw of S2 was legit terrible TV. Worse writing and acting than a Disney Channel show.

        All in all, this might be the most overhyped series out there. Nostalgia can only take me so far.

          This. Season 3 makes Season 2 look like Breaking Bad. I don't blame them for riding this train as far as it'll go, but we're way past nostalgia and I'm way too old for whatever it is they're going for now.

            I started watching it last night and really enjoyed it. I think I'm about 4 episodes in. It sounds like I'll stop after season 1 though.

              I'm in the middle of season 2. The nostalgia fix has worn off, and now it's a high school drama with a lot of kicking. I don't think I'll be able to make it any further.

                That's about where we got with season 2. It's campy AF. Zabka is easily the most talented actor of the bunch, but he's not nearly enough to make up for the deficiencies of the rest. Seems like seasons 2 and 3 (haven't watched but have heard) have turned into opportunities for quick cameos and "where are they now" episodes. Nostalgia has quickly given way to fatigue.

                  I really prefer my high school drama with punches and "Welcome to the OC bitch" one liners.

                    I binged both season 1 & 2 a few months ago and enjoyed both. Further evidence that I'm not as cultured as the general CS population.

                      I finished 3 a few nights ago and am wondering myself where my culture has gone as well. I have enjoyed all three seasons, but thought 2 was the weakest of them. But then again I was the guy in high school who would take advantage of my vocal talents and do my best Peter Cetera falsetto to get closer than the Book of Mormon limits on slow dances.

                        The second season is stupid. I've certainly seen worse, but it isn't good television.

                          I finished season 3 over the weekend. This show is dumb. But I love it. It's mindless fun and I don't mind being hit over the head with the call backs. Then again, my MySpace was entirely Karate Kid themed.

                            Don’t be ashamed it’s awesome fun. How ridiculous was the final fight scene in Daniels house? Lol I was giggling the entire time but in a good way.

                            Season 1 was awesome, S2 was ok, S3 could be a launch pad to something pretty awesome.

                            The older players are incredible, can’t wait until (hopefully) they bring back Terry Silver.

                              Yeah that scene was ridiculous. In fact, Gidget came home just as it was happening and she hasn't seen a single episode. She asked what I was watching and I said Cobra Kai. Then she remarked, they're just fighting in a house? Yes.

                                Finally watched it and loved it all. Favorite part of it was hearing Johnny's take on Top Gun.
