He seeks redemption by reopening the infamous Cobra Kai karate dojo. But the LaRusso-Lawrence rivalry of yesteryear is reignited when their lives become intertwined with the next generation of “karate kids.”

@@popsie4488 How can anyone hate him?!
still can’t believe this started as a joke then became a UA-cam original and now is as big as it is!!! Thank you Karate Kid and Cobra Kai
What do you mean as a joke
was never a joke. more like a small project that became big
It never was a joke wtf?
@@runthrufields thank you for that lol
@@tabby024_7 it started as a sort of gag in a sitcom called How I Met Your Mother where the eccentric guy of the main cast named Barney sees Johnny Lawrence as the true Karate Kid and was angry at Larusso for hogging the spotlight. Both Zabka and Macchio appeared in the show and Zabka was even in Barney's wedding
Is sad that Mr. Miyagi couldn’t be part of this show😭 Imagine if he still here. R.I.P. to Mr. Miyagi
Are you kidding me???? He may not physically be part of the show but in spirit, he IS the show!!!!
Mr. Miyagi-Daniel-San you Remember Lesson about Balance?
Lesson not just karate only. Lesson for whole life.
Johnny's life in the first episode is relatable for those who's been down with luck in life.
Luck will always come, your life got a Plan for you, so nerver give up!
@@lol-gz8zt Thank you for this im good but just wanted to make a relatable comment here😀
@@plumbersunited8177 it was very important and good what you said mate✌
Yeah. 🤚
The struggle bro
Honestly after watching this show I see that Johnny was never a bad guy just a man the world hasn't been kind to. And it seems like the world still isn't being kind to him.
I think this whole series is to show that there is two sides to each story
Yeah whole point of this show was to change the perspective on Johnny
It’s somewhat evident in the original Karate Kid as well. You can see he was annoyed at Kreese when he told Bobby to break Daniel’s leg. Then after he lost, he congratulated Daniel. And then Kreese started strangling him in the parking lot. Johnny really was never the bad guy; he had a terrible influence in Kreese and Daniel kinda unknowingly provoked him.
Same thing for both of them if you want the karate kid
After watching this I learned they’re exactly the same just a different type of story same obstacles in life different choices
This show definitely made me not only just a bigger fan of the iconic franchise but also a bigger fan of the 80's. Boy, what an era!
Agreed!
@@isaactheworshipwarrior6687 I *miss* the 80’s.
This pilot episode is pure gold. The title ‘ace degenerate’ , the music and the memories. Straight to hall of fame.
You gotta admit, out of all the streaming networks, who seriously thought UA-cam would be the one to give Karate Kid a spinoff series?
best thing they ever did.
I would never have guessed it. I am now just watching the first episode.
Am also impressed
😀
Who though ANYONE would make a spinoff, with the original actors, after 35 YEARS??? I'm about the same age as the main characters, too. Its freakin me out!
UA-cam didn't create it, they bought the rights to the show.
WIlliam Zabka deserves some kind of award recognition. His whole performance is phenomenal.
Yes! He's fantastic in this series.
Not to mention he looks great for a dude pushing late 50s nice work no mercy 🤘
he's 52
I really, really hope he receives it. I wasn't sure UA-cam series could receive Emmys but I looked into it and they can! Fingers crossed . . .
Wow - great news!
Who would've thought that 4 years ago, The Karate Kid trilogy would wind up having the BEST revival/continuation series ever?!
Even Star Wars could've learned several things from this show.
It really could
@@emilio9barns579 yeah because it's been made clear that the writers have their story planned and mapped out, so they KNOW what they wanna do already.
@@isaactheworshipwarrior6687Plus the flashbacks, character development and their redemptions.
@@followerofchrist3125 those too. It's like the show has no reason to be as good as it is, especially since It started out on UA-cam Red of all places. Everything else that was on that platform isn't even a memory to anyone anymore
@@isaactheworshipwarrior6687 it aint even that good, the first season was but then it got cringe.
What an incredible idea and show these writers have given us. And bringing back all original characters. Cobra Kai is the series we never knew we needed.
Agree
I love how the creators really stuided the movie..When Daniel sad in KK1..his uncle louie..they gave him a cousin Louie (presuming its his son) also how Johnny was a bully (Oh he had it rough at home with his annoying stepdad) They did a wonderful job.
As sad as Johnny's life was before he opened Cobra Kai, he did manage to stay away from drugs and being homeless...
@treezy I guess, but things could be worse for him
@@siddarapuram3726 Exactly. Atleast he has the bare minimum
@@siddarapuram3726 The only way it could be worse is if he was dead. 🤣
@@supersizesenpai No-what I mean is that he could be completely homeless, or he could be addicted, or something far worse than living in a crappy apartment and eating stale pizza every day.

Season 1 Johnny: a complete drunk loser who has no family.
Season 5 Johnny: a complete family man with two sons, a GF, and a baby along the way.
That is one hell of a complete arc in television history.
Cobra Kai might be the fastest 5 seasons I've ever binge watched in my entire life. 😂
Because they are very short
William Zabka deserves more recognition as an actor. He's very talented. It's sad Hollywood only gives oportunities to the same big names every year.
I think both him and ralph are great actors.
I think they both want to put their all into this series rather than do other work though
Hea very good. It takes less than 2 minutes to all the sudden after 35 years start to like Johny. And he does it without saying a word.20 seconds in your like " man Johnies not a bad guy "
yeh well maybe this will be his breakthrough, and he will start getting other roles now
Yeah, he's really good.
I'd say he is getting recognition now. Cobra Kai is one of the most popular television series, period. I believe season 2 was rated #1 when it debuted!
Johnny: "HEY! Watch the car!"
Also Johnny: proceeds to throw the fattest kid on his car.

same here , they did a good job
Just remember friends this literally came from UA-cam xD
Bruh this was literally me since monday till today
this series should be called cobra gay!!!
@@Carlos-hl6fo why??
Can't believe that this show started on UA-cam and now is one of the biggest in the world.
I remember when I switched from Spotify premium to UA-cam Red, and seeing this I was like...wow, a TV series with the original karate kid actors. Now it's blown up only 4yrs and a global planned demic later. Most impressive.
If I had to give UA-cam credit for one thing, They gave us Cobra Kai
One of the best series ever and one of the only shows that they were not stupid enough to actually cancel
It surprises how I mean Johnny is it to Miguel in the pilot episode he went from feeling annoyed at the innocent boy to loving him like a son
Johnny always had a way of curing people, he cured miguel's asthma, made hawk, cured miguel's coma, and most importantly, he made season 3 come out a week earlier and saved us from waiting and boredom
Huh he did?
ye lol whatta spoiler
I already finished cobra kai so it doesn't matter
Man don’t Spoiler this. It’s season one episode one here
Spoliers
he didn't cure Miguel's coma, that would be a miracle, johnny would be god, but he help Miguel learn to stand again
I'm convinced that if Yasmin hadn't hit his car, this whole story in their world wouldn't happen and Johnny would have died alone with his beer.
We have Yasmin to thank for starting this story.
and Kyler
who knows maybe miguel would have helped an the story starts differently
@@theherooftherailshiro5117yeah 100% kyler
Nah Johnny was bound to start a karate war
He was getting fed up with larusso ads
He just woke up frm the wrong side of the bed and ended up starting a karate war
I remember watching the first season way back in my 7th grade year, now I’m in 11th grade waiting for season 5 to be released sometime this year. Time flies so fast lol, never thought this show would have gotten more seasons or the popularity it has now. Gotta thank it for inspiring me to take karate and get out of the house to do physical activity cuz otherwise I’d still be spending my days playing video games like a nerd (which is something I still do just not as often).
Same here bro. Got into it in 7th grade, 2019 now I’m in 9th grade time sure does fly by. I remember me and my brother constantly watching and obsessing for season 3 to come out stuck on that S2 cliffhanger. Season 3 was one hell of a ride

Jeff I agree
I watched Cobra Kai as it aired, especially Seasons 1 and 2 on UA-cam Red. The show has become 1 of the best shows of all time and arguably the best legacy sequel to any big franchise. over 5 years later, and the show has pretty much gotten better and crazier with each season. Now, we just wait patiently for the final season, and I could not be any more excited. COBRA KAI...NEVER DIES!
How to watch this movies i cant watch on the UA-cam
@tonyilias2561
It's a Series, not a franchise, dumbass. Learn the difference.
A franchise is a business set up to where you can buy into it and start your own, therefore Movies and Series by default do not apply, idiot.
I never imagined TV this GOOD could be created again. This is EVERYTHING the stupid new Star Wars should have been.......
Just watched all three original films ... absolute classic. Can't believe how well they made this TV show, it really is a beautiful continuation of the movies and 3 decades later ! amazing.
Is it for free on UA-cam
Yes, and it wouldn't have worked out nearly as well if they used different actors to play the 30 years later characters now. Thank God almost everyone from the 80s movies agreed to play their characters again 30 years older

@@proudindian8554 no bro
who knew that losing a karate tournament would ruin your life
I think when he lost the tournament he was actually embarrassed and the tournament spectators such as freddy fernandez and his so called buddies were ever so excited for danny larusso winning the tournament so either johnny changed high schools or perhaps he simply dropped out though , I think johhny likely completed his own education
Yeah but its funny
Yeah, cause past experiences have no impact on a person.
There's the fact that life is constantly reminding him of it with the "Kick the Competition" slogan on every billboard.
If Kreese would have been Miyagi that wouldn't happen but Johnny didn't have LaRusso's luck.
Johnny is like a 17 year old in a 50 year old's body
5 seasons in, I still can't believe how this show came literally out of nowhere! Like many, when I first heard of this, my first thoughts were of disdain. My God was I wrong! This show is truly something special!
From the ending of this first episode, as soon as the epic music kicks in and Johnny's monologue starts, I was done, hooked for good :)

i miss ur old videos
Cobra Kai is ending. but I want another such motivational and amazing series. Like this.
Yes, but they are planning to spin most of the main characters off into their own Series, or so The Scrolls are foretold!
Channeled from Pat:
"I am soo happy & excited to see the Karate Kid saga continued & beautifully evolved into more than i had ever imagined.
I want to thank the creators, staff, as well as Ralph & William for making this happen. The young stars of Cobra Kai show skills at such an early age, i have nothing but admiration for them.
It was my time to leave the incarnation, but i have been fortunate to find someone that can convey my feelings through this veil.
Once again i would like to sincerely thank everyone involved with Cobra Kai for putting your hearts into the project - that is where the magic comes from.
One last thing, a special thanks to Martin Kove for his huge effort. It is not easy doing a martial arts drama at any age as Ralph & William now know, but to do it in your latter years as Martin is, is spectacular & is very special - thank you for returning to help tie this project all together Martin."
William zabka is such an underrated actor, he’s so talented and it’s sad because most people don’t know who he is.
Edit: Well now they know
I have no idea what you think is a good actor but william isnt a very good actor, heath ledger tho hes pretty good
Krab trauma ur a fuckin idiot
I agree 💯% with you. He's a great actor and doesn't get much credit for his work. Karate Kid and Just One Of The Guys is where he's mostly known for. But he's a great actor.
He was awesome
@@tu.chiquitobombon All actors from the 80's are better than the crap actors of today, Zabka included. Even the movies of the 80's were better than the crap ones of today which is why we see reboots like this.
Im 44 years old and finally feel I'm back in the 80s This is awesome!!!! NO MERCY
Sounds great
I'll just say Im 49...feel the same way. I havent watched episode yet..but its sounding good. Maybe I edit this after I watch...
I'm 42 and feel the same way!
Yeah..us "old timers" gotta stick together. Anyone have kids in a martial arts class? I would send my son/daughter to a obscure fighting type school..like Ninjutsu or Krav-Maga. Maybe attend the first few classes with him/her
Time to pull out the il' cassete tapes..jam some Motley Crue..Ratt..and Quiet Riot ! Anyone here seen the movie The Wrestler (with Mickey Rourke)? THAT movie gave me 80s flashback. Marisa Tomei lookin hot as ever too! (Ha..but the 80s me might have said " Shes kinda old...but I wouldnt kick her out of bed or nuthin"
The movie was released in 1984 , I was 6 or 7 yrs when I saw this movie and now after 40 yrs I'm watching these actors back in action. 80s and 90erra was d BEST. Thanks once again for bringing these legends back in action

Cobra Kai is a dream come true for an oldschool Karate Kid fan. Macchio and Zabka are still magic on screen together. My favorite film rivals of all time.

To be fair, Johnny was more like a jerk bully, but not an antagonist or villain.

Didn't know that saying. But certainly age creates cynicism when our internal environments start to implode.

Who would’ve thought all these years later they’re five seasons in show gets better and better. They really took the karate kid they already belonged franchise. had a crazy idea took a shot and it actually worked out. This is the only legacy series that does its original justice.

One of the best shows ever. Truly enjoy it! The actors are so talented, and the story's amazing. Can't wait for the 5th season!
Growing up seeing Johnny as the villain of Karate Kid, it's awesome how this series shows things from his perspective, and that there's a lot more gray than black and white. Looking forward to Season 3.
Yeah I like how they turned Larusso into the bad guy..
Correct, The Tables have Turned.
@@tonytomei1175 Uhh they didn't. The show intended that none of them are good guys/bad guys but people. People with flaws and personal issues.
Right on bro. Well said.
Why does everyone, including this show, forget the part where Johnny handed Daniel the trophy and said "You're all right, Larusso!"
I swear bro everyone forgot
😂
Just watched the film on TV and came here to mention...
It seems the show rewrote that part, because Johnny was already up and handing Daniel the trophy when the announcer said his name as the new champion. I think that's just how Johnny remembers it in his mind in 2018 after 34 years of bitterness about Daniel's life getting better after that, and his own life going downhill.
that's true. Jhonny was very good to Daniel on many occasions, he was just very badly influenced by his sensei. Jhonny deserves to be the protagonist of this series.
The best show in the history of television.
This has honestly turned into one of the best shows... Rewatching the entire thing.

Mark Conway this is WAY better than the movie sequels (which I stopped watching after the 2nd one).
The best series I have ever seen!! I’m 40 and so amazed how this was put together so that a younger generation can also enjoy it 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Johnny in the pilot perfectly represents a man who has lost everything due to the mistakes he made. He lost his love, his friends, his relationship with his son, and his mom, who was probably the only person left he had who still loved and supported him. I’m not saying he didn’t drink before, but after she died, he probably becomes an alcoholic to drown his sorrows. The only reason he gets out of this hole is because of Miguel. Without him, Johnny probably would have died due to liver failure or getting in a drunk car crash.
Johnny Lawrence watches "Iron Eagle" and finds redemption in it: 80's nerd-gasm!!
Chappy!!!
I can't believe you caught that too!!!
genaro ayala Believe it: at 11 years old in 1986, these were two of my favorite movies, in heavy rotation on the family VCR.
"A bunch of things must have gone wrong if you're listening to this. Whatever happened, I know you must be real scared. I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to run for home. Maybe if I was you I'd want to make a flat out run for Hellicon Air Force Base in Greece. Right now, you're probably full of all the doubts in the world; and I'm going to tell you something, Doug, God doesn't give people things he doesn't want them to use and he gave you The Touch - it's a power you have inside of you down there where you keep your guts, boy, and it's all you need to blast your way in and get back what they took from you. Your dad is just sitting there waiting for a miracle and if you fly your heart out you can give him one; it's up to you. Don't bother putting on this tape if you're turning back.
Good. You decided, didn't you. Alright, first thing you gotta do is convince yourself that nothing can stop you. You've got to believe that plane your in is a suit of armor, like an Iron Eagle that nothing can penetrate. Now listen close, kid. I recorded some stuff to help you through each part of the mission. Remember to talk into your flight recorder so that there is a record of everything. Don't waste your time worrying about me - you start thinking that way and you'll mess up. Just pretend I'm in that cockpit with you and we're still going in to knock the sh*t out of them together. "

I love seeing the first episode when we are close to the sixth season and seeing how all the characters, especially Johnny, had a great development.
Honestly after watching this show for days I really don't want it to end I'm so obsessed with it that I decided to come right back to UA-cam in order to watch the pilot episode before I switch over to watching all the other ones online
The first season and the fifth season are just amazing. Absolutely incredible.
I love that Johnny has the same exact fighting style after 34 years without missing a beat.
Once a fighter, always a fighter
ny_kia31 skip a beat??
What does the mean...
He played the main guy in the movie "Shootfighter" with Bolo Yeung as his sensei. He looked abit like Ken of Street Fighter. He never skipped fighting
Well, he was in some other Karate schools or dojos after he left Kreese Karate school.
Plot twist:
Johnny: you ready to go down this path once you do there’s no going back
Miguel: your gonna be my karate teacher?
Johnny: no... I’m gonna be your new dad
basically.
Paul Mathew what does any of this got to do with ally😂
RomanJC firstly he’s more likely to get back with Robbie a mum and secondly my comment was a joke
Anthony Koss relax my comment is only a joke it’s nothing serious and plus I’ve already seen the karate kid movie like twice anyways

I’m so impressed that a legacy sequel to The Karate Kid in the form of a tv show over 30 years after the original movies is this good. I’m especially surprised that UA-cam would be the one to make this show.

"Cobra Kai" is actually much better than I thought it would be. I thought it was going to be corny. We get to see the progression of Johnny Lawrence and Daniel LaRusso and their lives. I'm hooked now!
It is corny 😂
I was skeptical about this at first but I must say, I'm really happy with the first episode. You can tell this was made by people who actually care about the franchise.
It's BeeRay sammmmme
Right
It's BeeRay Yep. I also like how they present Johnny in a relatable, sympathetic way. It's almost like the series is maturing, as hopefully, we all do.

He absolutely was a bully, but what I like about this is showing he wasn't one dimensional and had problems too (being forced to do that kick by his mentor, having a shitty father and no positive figure). It also shows how LaRusso changed for the worst, got a big ego and commercialized Miyagi's lessons for self-gain. I think the show is gonna teach us how people can turn themselves around for better and worse, and that the past can't define a person forever.
Kelly Joule And how life isn't pure black and white.
Kelly Joule spot on Kelly, neither of them were all bad or good just had good or bad moments... and that's true of most humans.
Marco Polo in the original movie he wasn't really, but there was always 2 sides to the story. If you think Johnny was innocent then you're just being bias and wrong for arguments sake
Kelly Joule Danny’s who doesn’t really seem to be out of hand tbh. He handled the situation with Johnny really well but I agree using the he shouldn’t be using karate as a slogan. At least not to the extent that he is.
That is how treasures of 80's should be treated. With RESPECT! :D
That's true, unlike Disney's Star Wars.
@@sel3735 Yeah...... That hurt :/ I'm an effin' trekkie, but i've loved SW and........ No comments, i'm just so sad. :(
@Laurence Pinney Yeah, it is! Treasure of era that is no longer, but old ppl have member berries ;]
Cathulhu I think cobra Kai is better
Respect yes and I like this series but they'll never be another grouping of characters like the original. Millennial fist-bumping and themes just doesn't quite fit in.
Obrigado UA-cam por ter criado a maior série de todos os tempos ❤️😌🙏👏
Si
En español
Kyler is the reason why Johnny open up cobra kai
No Miguel has the reason why he opened up the dojo Miguel gave him a reason to turn his life around
The ending of this episode is so critical. The original antagonist becomes the protagonist. It instantly gives you goosebumps. Who wouldn't binge after knowing this turnover!!
Is this free? Please respond

Like many others from Gen X, I went through three phases with this show.
1. See Cobra Kai advertisement and laugh.
2. Watch first ten minutes of Episode 1, hoping for a laugh.
3. Finish Episode 10 with my jaw on the floor.
This series has to be the story of the year. So well done, as chronicled by other commenters, and such a surprise (shock, really) seeing how wonderful it was. The Karate Kid is part of Gen X lore, granted -- it feels like we grew up with these characters. But I think if I had to put my finger on the magic for a certain generation, it would be the fact that Daniel and Johnny (Ralph and William) were my age in 1984, and are still my age in 2018, with 30+ years in between. The show does such a fantastic job of filling in those years as lived by their fictional characters, but lived in real life by us... as if they'd never left. From youth and adolescent struggles to kids, house, and career. Where the heck did the time go?
This is so obviously a labor of love. Please, please, please do well by Season 2. LOVED the final scene. And where the heck is Elizabeth? You guys managed to rope in just about everyone else.
No Small Plans I’m with you all the way!
No Small kki:\/
Belisario Castillo What country are you from? Where are your parents/grandparents from?
I say no to Ali. With the way this season went they don’t need that. I think it would be a little too rinse and repeat. I mean what’s she gonna do? Come back and play a home wrecker?
No Small Plans pllalLL
Idk man, Johnny was living the life. 1st season Johnny is the best Johnnyw ever
Essa é uma das melhores séries que já assisti em minha vida🔥
For real I agree 100%
Far the best story continuation I could imagine
Gabriel next season will have all episodes free
right ?
i was stunned
@@mattholt2451 is a rumor
Exactly..me n my little brother said the same..brought the old school audience mixed with the new generation.
Agreed sometimes things are given to you, you never really knew you needed
Watching this series for a 3rd time waiting for season 3. Who's still watching in 2020?
Sea Bass me
I hope in s3 cobra kai and miyagi do should all get along because in s1 cobra kai won in s2 miyagi do won and now this is a tie breaker
Sea Bass me
Sea Bass I just started it is awesome.
@@Miist3rDuce1 exatly
I'm so glad these are still on here. I love this show
First it was just Johnny's perspective after he lost and then got older, living in the current modern day of the world. And then it became something EVEN bigger than that. It became something FOR EVERYONE.
"... it was an illegal kick."
CLOSURE AT LAST.
Alec FINALLY IT IS ADDRESSED
SuperStarMcAwesome hits to the face were not allowed in the competition, and the crane kick was a direct headshot
No, punches to the face aren't allowed. Kicks to the face are extremely common in karate. A tournament that bans kicks to the face would be... very weird. (Which is why the judge doesn't say anything, as it was a completely legal move.)
Dergonu I knew it wasn’t common but I thought the ref specified that? Fair enough though.
Multiple people including real-life Tournament Judges and Instructors analysed that scene and all agree that it was a Tournament-illegal move
