Hey, that wouldn't have been a bad name instead of Johnny Lawrence.

Cobra Kai to Leave YouTube
(by Aaron Perine comicbook.com 5-28-20)
Cobra Kai is set to leave YouTube and release Season 3 on another streaming service. Deadline reports that the YouTube flagship series will be pulling up stakes ahead of next season. The Google-owned platform used Cobra Kai as a priority in the early days of their YouTube premium initiative, but things have changed. Now, Sony Pictures TV will be at the reins again as a couple of suitors have emerged for the legacy program, with Netflix and Hulu showing strong interest in Cobra Kai. One of the shows that drew a lot of people into the YouTube premium service, it will be interesting to see what the company comes up with to fill that hole in their programming with more combatants entering the streaming fray.
If that weren’t strange enough, whoever gets the rights to Season 3 of Cobra Kai will also have access to the first two seasons of the show on a non-exclusive basis. That means that fans can easily catch up on everything that’s been going on before diving in for the new season. YouTube had negotiated ownership and exclusive global rights to the first two seasons in the original license agreement with Sony Television. People began to wonder what would happen to Cobra Kai as far back as 2018. YouTube’s big gamble on shifting to a subscription model didn’t exactly light the world on fire and despite shows like Cobra Kai, it never gained mass adoption.
When the Google-owned entity decided to shift back to an advertising-based model instead of subscriptions, something had to give. The sheer fact of the matter is, unscripted shows just have less cost associated with them. In a proof of this kind of thinking, every one of the originals that aired on YouTube since the switch has been canceled except Cobra Kai and Liza on Demand. Liza Koshy’s show will remain on, as it has been renewed for additional seasons, but the Karate Kid spin-off will be finding a new home, wherever that may be. Season 2’s Cobra Kai premiere set records for YouTube. However, the company didn’t really see a path forward to renewing it for Season 4.
Sony Television had to do what was best for the show and look for a partner that would allow them to keep the show going. Negotiations are ongoing, but YouTube will not release the series until a new partner has been found. Luckily for the people behind Cobra Kai, the demand for their show is actually quite high. With so many streaming services looking for an edge, a show with a built-in fanbase and already having a season in the can is like gold. The only question remaining is which platform will win the bid.

Ralph Macchio says LaRusso will head to Okinawa in Cobra Kai S. 3
(by Rosie Cordero ew.com 7-18-19)
Cobra Kai won’t be back for its third season until 2020, but star Ralph Macchio teased what fans can expect on Thursday, live from EW’s video studio at San Diego Comic-Con. The actor told EW’s Gerrad Hall that his character, Daniel LaRusso, will be headed to Japan as he continues to work through life without his Karate Kid sensei, Mr. Miyagi (played by the legendary actor Pat Morita in the original movies).
“For season 3, something I can tease is that, albeit we have a lot of cleaning up to do based on the events of season 2, some of the stories will dive into the origins of both Miyagi-Do Karate and Cobra Kai,” Macchio explained. “Like, the beginnings of those two forms of martial arts, and we’ll learn stuff about both that we never knew. And that includes LaRusso going to Okinawa, which is a piece of season 3.”
It was always important to Macchio that Mr. Miyagi’s presence be felt on the show. And with LaRusso rebuilding Miyagi-Do in season 2 to become a sensei himself, the spirit of the character can live on, with his lessons passed on to a new generation.
“It was always important from the get-go upon hearing the initial pitch for this project to have Miyagi woven into the story and into LaRusso’s life,” Macchio said. “Whether it be something [LaRusso] needs to tap back into to find balance in his life if he’s gone off… and that stuff has all been incorporated last season.”
He continued, “In season 2, we were at Miyagi-Do Karate, so a big part of it was back at that house and that location. So it was kind of emotional to do that because a lot of the magic of that original film happened in those scenes and with that character. I think it’s important to keep that alive in the show.”
Two things no one from the cast would confirm were whether Karate Kid actress Elisabeth Shue would (finally) make an appearance on Cobra Kai, and how Miguel (Xolo Maridueña) is doing after his accident in the finale. Even without that information, it’s certain that Miguel and Johnny’s (William Zabka) relationship will never be the same.
“Personally, I don’t know too much, but I think the biggest thing is the relationship between Miguel and Johnny,” Maridueña said. “It’s touched upon throughout the first and second season, and seeing how that will be affected by the events that happened in the last episode, and it’s something to look forward to. And things were going pretty well between for Miguel’s mom and Johnny up until the last episode, so I guess we can tune in for that too.”
