So, last night I finished up the latest batch of episodes for season 6 of Cobra Kai and I am still kind of shaking my head.
What the hell was that?
I don't know what they are trying to accomplish with this story.
I did like the AI, if you want to call it that, version of Mr. Miyagi. I wondered if they might try something like that since they are going into Mr. Miyagi's past a little bit in the story. And there were a few laugh out loud moments with Johnny that reminded me of the first two or three seasons.
But there were so many bad parts that overall by the end of it I was shaking my head and wondering what the hell went wrong with this show.
Just to name a few things, I'm getting sick of hearing the F-bomb. Hawk blurted it out once, and so did Daniel. Really? This is supposed to kind of be geared to a young audience and you are stooping to a new low and using that word?, c'mon guys, you can do better.
Also, the kidnapping scene. That was pretty lame.
The flight back to Los Angeles for Miguel and Johnny and then they just turn right around a go back? Do you know how much last minute airline tickets to Europe cost? Where are they getting the money for this? Also, do you know how long those flights take? They're not flying on the Concorde. It would be impossible for them to just fly back and forth like that and make it back in time for the tournament. Maybe if the tournament were in Las Vegas, yes. But Barcelona? Ummm.... no.
And why is the tournament in Barcelona?
And then the giant battle royale at the end? I was screaming at the tv, "this is so stupid!"
Kreese is getting old, I don't know why they put him in a sleeveless t-shirt. I don't want to see that saggy skin on his arms and neck.
The teenage love affair stuff is getting old and boring too.
Anyway, just a few more episodes to go in a couple of months I think and this will all be over. Then I can go buy the DVD copies of the first two or three seasons and be happy with it.
These last couple of seasons can be forgotten, kind of like Karate Kid 3 and the Next Karate Kid.
