hungrymike 08/30/20 5:49:16 AM #1:	Just finished season 1. Its not bad. Its got nostalgia, interesting characters, and a bit of commentary on contemporary society. It attempts to frame conflict in a way that lets u see all sides. It doesn't have good or bad guys, but allows the characters to display aspects of both virtue and vice. You want to like and hate jonny all at the same time. <cite>hungrymike posted [p:943994605] in Cobra kai ... [t:78942656]...</cite> <quote>Just finished season 1. Its not bad.

The virus of course postponned everything as did shifting it to netflix, but it's horrid timing. Good over all though. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."

Characters begin to act outside of that moral gray area/ two sides to every story paradigm, allowing one to definativley say there is a bad guy. <cite>hungrymike posted [p:944193060] in Cobra kai ...

wolfy42 09/04/20 5:23:51 AM #5:	I mean.....yeah, there is ONE bad guy, and it's obvious by the end of season 2 who that is, but the chars from season 1 are all pretty ambiguous still lol. Everyone making good and bad choices as they go along. The golden child so far, the.....disciple of danial son....basically....actually ended up doing the worst thing so far, even if he didn't actually mean to do it. The.....semi-villian son....ended up trying to make peace and paying for it. Both of the old guys/dads kinda almost made up and were friends for a second there lol. I hate how they left it though especially since we have to wait so long for a conclusion. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."

I already know the cliffhanger, though. In general, it seems incredible. lihlih posted... Oh wow, that was the one thing making me interested in getting YT Red, but I guess not anymore. I wonder why YT decided to release their biggest show on their competition. Because they cancelled the series and NF picked it up for season 3, buying the earlier seasons in the process. And yes, it was literally the only good thing YT Red had going for it and supposedly YT Red is moving away from professional productions. YT Red isn't really a thing either, they kinda redid the whole thing. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:944193568] in Cobra kai ...

wolfy42 09/04/20 6:51:46 AM #7:	Zeus posted... but I'm not going to watch the full seasons until right before season 3 drops Dude this is literally what I told my friend to do today lol. I actually told him to watch Season 1 now if he wants since it doesn't end on a big cliffhanger, but wait till season 3 drops before watching season 2 for sure (I wish I had). I hate freaking waiting years to get resolution. Netflix also cancels alot of stuff without ever dealing with cliffhangers which is very annoying. They did that with 2 shows recently in fact that I was waiting for season 2. Least we know they won't cancel season 3 of CK cause it's already filmed, they are just not releasing it yet. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."

They also pick up stuff that was canceled and continue it, like was the case with both Longmire (which ended its tv run on an epic cliffhanger where ~~we weren't sure if a major character was shot~~) and, I might add, Cobra Kai which YTR wasn't picking up for another season. (And, technically speaking, some of the shit that gets canceled on NF isn't NF's fault -- for instance, Disney brought an end to the MCU series.) In general, when it comes to cancellations, when a show knows it's ending can make all the difference since we sometimes get endings instead of cliffhangers as a result. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:944222707] in Cobra kai ...

Yeah, I'm not taking a dump on netflix, they are in general the best streaming service (have the most awesome shows). They just canceled I am not ok with this, which I liked, so I'm still upset about it, but over all they have saved way more shows then they just suddenly canceled (including CK as you mentioned). So yeah netflix over all, but BOOO netflix for canceling some of them with major cliffhangers. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."

Minus a couple major characters for reasons brought about by Serenity (or RL, RIP Book) I mean Nathan is pretty big now, but I bet he would be down for it, he loved that role lol. But yeah, I don't know if they could really pull it off between Serenity and real life death, maybe a spin off where the characters that are still alive make cameo's or something, but the main show would be hard to get going again.

In this case the two sides were FAR closer in actual experience (it was both of their first times competing, both had started training fairly recently etc). ~~Hawk was a nerd lol, and he just learned karate recently, also he wasn't expecting his also nerd friend to fight back at all, so that kinda explains it.~~ Robby though they set up as kinda a "good guy" type, that was Daniels disciple, but then ended with a twist, actually I thought they did a really good job of making the "good guy" and "Bad guy" roles kinda switch back and forth throughout the two seasons, one of the things I really like about it. Sam's whole arc in season 2 was meh but they basically wanted a chick on chick setup and a more solid "bad girl" I guess. It wasn't horrible, but it was kinda stupid lol.
