Brian Lowry

Five seasons in, the show has already surpassed any reasonable expectations, developing a life of its own that proves it wasn't just "Karate Kid"-ing around.

As ever, Zabka provides the humour, Macchio the earnestness, with various teenage sub-plots getting in the way.

You have to embrace the cheese in “Cobra Kai” because that’s half the fun. And to be clear, the show is enormous fun.

Rated: 3/4
