Cobra Kai has managed to mine depth out of the light hearted popcorn fair of the Karate Kid franchise. The series that launched a million teenage karate students in the 80s has continued to loom large in the zeitgeist as we contemplate who the real bully was or if Daniel’s final kick should have counted as a point. After the original movie the sequels added even more characters and more background until the over the top cartoon-like third film featuring the gleefully bad Terry SIlver and his elaborate plane to torture and humiliate a teenager over a karate tournament win. Sure we’ve all been exploring the world suggested by the three movies and what their ramifications might have been, not everyone thought that the series would be something that could be revisited over thirty years after Daniel-san delivered his last All Valley Under-18 tournament win. That is until the series Cobra Kai revisited the seminal 80s bully Johnny Lawerence living his life haunted by that one kick and how it has prevented him from moving on. A chance encounter prompts Johnny from bringing back Cobra Kai which brings all of those most eventful two years of young Daniel’s life. With the past being churned up like a yard full of dogs, there’s plenty of opportunities to do callbacks, some small, some large. Season five ups the game, but the references have been coming fast and loose the whole time. What’s your favorite callback?
