Cobra Kai is an American martial arts comedy drama television series created by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg, and distributed by Sony Pictures Television. It serves as a sequel to the first three The Karate Kid films created by Robert Mark Kamen.{{cite web |url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/tvs-top-5-how-cobra-kai-could-expand-its-miyagi-verse |title='TV's Top 5': How 'Cobra Kai' Could Expand Its 'Miyagi-verse' |access-date=2021-01-18 |last=Goldberg |first=Lesley |date=2021-01-01 |work=The Hollywood Reporter |archive-date=March 9, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210309131324/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/tvs-top-5-how-cobra-kai-could-expand-its-miyagi-verse |url-status=live }} Cobra Kai premiered on May 2, 2018, and concluded on February 13, 2025, after six seasons consisting of 65 episodes. Originally released on YouTube Red / YouTube Premium for its first two seasons, the series later moved to Netflix.

Ralph Macchio and William Zabka, reprising their respective roles as Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence from the film series, star in Cobra Kai alongside Courtney Henggeler, Xolo Maridueña, Tanner Buchanan, Mary Mouser, Jacob Bertrand, Gianni DeCenzo, Peyton List, Vanessa Rubio, and Dallas Dupree Young. Martin Kove and Thomas Ian Griffith also reprise their roles as the antagonists John Kreese and Terry Silver from the original film series. Cobra Kai re-examines The Karate Kid films as Johnny's "redemption story" that questions his role as a villain, and also introduces the struggles that both Daniel and Johnny face with their respective father figures.{{cite web |url=https://decider.com/2025/02/14/cobra-kai-ultimate-johnny-lawrence-redemption-story/ |title='Cobra Kai' Is The Ultimate Johnny Lawrence Redemption Story 'Karate Kid' Fans Never Knew They Always Needed |access-date=February 14, 2025 |last=Sorokach |first=Josh |date=February 14, 2025 |publisher=Decider.com }}

Cobra Kai attained high viewership on both YouTube and Netflix, and received critical acclaim for its writing, performances, action sequences, humor, character development, and faithfulness to the films. It received numerous awards and nominations, with the third season being nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series at the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards.{{TOC limit|3}}

Premise

Beginning in 2018, thirty-four years after being defeated by Daniel LaRusso in the 1984 All-Valley Karate Tournament at the end of The Karate Kid (1984), Johnny Lawrence suffers from alcoholism and depression. He works as a part-time handyman and lives in an apartment in Reseda, Los Angeles, having fallen far from his wealthy lifestyle in Encino. He has an estranged son named Robby, from a previous relationship, whom he has abandoned. In contrast, Daniel is now the very successful owner of a car dealership - "Larusso Auto Group" and is married to co-owner Amanda with whom he has two children: Sam and Anthony. However, Daniel often struggles to meaningfully connect with his children especially after his friend and mentor Mr. Miyagi died prior to the series' beginning.

After using karate to defend his teenage neighbor Miguel Diaz from a group of high school bullies, Johnny agrees to teach Miguel the way of the fist and re-opens Cobra Kai. The revived dojo attracts a group of bullied social outcasts who find camaraderie and self-confidence under Johnny's tutelage. The reopening of Cobra Kai rekindles Johnny's old rivalry with Daniel, who subsequently responds by opening the Miyagi-do dojo with Sam and Robby, leading to a rivalry between the respective dojos.{{cite web |url=https://www.publicbooks.org/masculinity-on-the-mat/ |title=Masculinity on the Mat |access-date=October 19, 2019 |last=Haddad |first=Vincent |date=February 11, 2019 |publisher=Public Books |archive-date=September 22, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200922142843/https://www.publicbooks.org/masculinity-on-the-mat/ |url-status=live }}

Production

=Prior pop culture works=

There were a few works of popular culture prior to Cobra Kai that explored different readings of the first Karate Kid film. In 2007, the music video for the song "Sweep the Leg" by No More Kings stars William Zabka (who also directed the video) as a caricature of himself as Johnny Lawrence, and features references to The Karate Kid (1984), including cameo appearances by Zabka's former co-stars.{{cite magazine |last=Anagnoson |first=Alex |url=https://heavy.com/entertainment/cobra-kai/karate-kid-cast-2007-music-video/ |title=WATCH: 'Cobra Kai' Cast Starred in a 2007 Music Video |magazine=Heavy |date=2021-12-14 |accessdate=2022-10-20 |archive-date=October 30, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221030153950/https://heavy.com/entertainment/cobra-kai/karate-kid-cast-2007-music-video/ |url-status=live }}{{YouTube|r3iYmgDJ4FE|No More Kings "Sweep the Leg" (No More Kings Official YouTube Page)}} In a 2010 interview, Zabka jokingly discussed this video in the context of his vision that Johnny was the true hero of the film.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.avclub.com/william-zabka-1798220407|title=William Zabka|access-date=November 10, 2019|last=O'Neal|first=Sean|date=June 8, 2010|magazine=The A.V.

Next in June 2010, Ralph Macchio appeared in Funny or Die's online short, "Wax On, F*ck Off", in which his loved ones stage an intervention to turn the former child star from a well-adjusted family man into an addict besieged with tabloid scandal in order to help his career (with frequent references to The Karate Kid).[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAtd2r49wFw "Wax On, F*ck Off with Ralph Macchio"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221030154653/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAtd2r49wFw |date=October 30, 2022 }} Funny or Die; 2010 A recurring joke in the sketch is that Macchio is confused for an adolescent. The short was lauded by TV Guide's Bruce Fretts, who referred to the video as "sidesplitting" and "comic gold".Fretts, Bruce. "Cheers & Jeers"; TV Guide; July 5, 2010; Page 92

Finally, in 2013, Macchio and Zabka made guest appearances as themselves in the How I Met Your Mother episode "The Bro Mitzvah", where Macchio is invited to Barney Stinson's bachelor party, leading to Barney shouting that he hates Macchio and that Johnny was the real hero of The Karate Kid. Towards the end of the episode, a clown in the party wipes off his makeup and reveals himself as Zabka. Zabka continued to be a recurring character throughout the ninth season of the show.{{cite web|url=http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/04/29/how-i-met-your-mother-recap-william-zabka/|title='How I Met Your Mother' recap, 'Bro Mitzvah': The REAL Karate Kid|first=Sandra|last=Gonzalez|publisher=ew.com|date=April 29, 2013|access-date=May 12, 2018|archive-date=November 15, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201115221550/https://ew.com/article/2013/04/29/how-i-met-your-mother-recap-william-zabka/|url-status=live}} The creators of Cobra Kai commented on this episode stating that they "appreciate the parallel fandoms that this show has, whether it's the How I Met Your Mother storyline -- which was amazing -- we get asked all the time about that YouTube video if Daniel was the real bully...all that stuff just kind of buoyed us a little bit when we were conceiving the show and comparing the storylines to pitch the show because it made us feel confident that we weren't the only ones, and we didn't think we were, but it was nice to see other creators have Karate Kid on the mind."{{Cite web |last=Stone |first=Sam |date=2020-08-19 |title=Cobra Kai Creators Comment on How I Met Your Mother Connection |url=https://www.cbr.com/cobra-kai-creators-on-how-i-met-your-mother-connection/ |access-date=2022-09-28 |website=CBR |language=en-US |archive-date=October 1, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221001071218/https://www.cbr.com/cobra-kai-creators-on-how-i-met-your-mother-connection/ |url-status=live }}

==General==

As the "Miyagi-verse" that shapes Cobra Kai consists of characters who interacted with Mr. Miyagi, the series offers a deeper exploration of themes and characters from The Karate Kid (1984), The Karate Kid Part II (1986), and The Karate Kid Part III (1989), with all of the main (and a few supporting) characters reprising their original roles.{{cite web |last=Hinduja |first=Soniya |date=2024-11-24 |title=Every Actor From the 'Karate Kid' Movies Who Reprised Their Role for 'Cobra Kai' |url=https://movieweb.com/karate-kid-actors-who-came-back-cobra-kai/ |access-date=2025-02-13 |publisher=Movieweb}} With regard to The Karate Kid animated children's show (1989), Hurwitz has stated that he doesn't consider it to be part of the Miyagi-verse canon, but an Easter egg from it appears in season three, in response to the question about its status within Cobra Kai.{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/jonhurwitz/status/1309356871073984512|title=Twitter: Jon Hurwitz|access-date=2021-01-23|last=Hurwitz|first=Jon|date=2020-09-24|publisher=Twitter|archive-date=May 7, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210507015041/https://twitter.com/jonhurwitz/status/1309356871073984512|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=https://www.cbr.com/cobra-kai-season-3-easter-eggs/|title=Cobra Kai Reveals Nearly Two Dozen Easter Eggs from Season 3|access-date=2021-01-23|last=Stone|first=Sam|date=2021-01-20|publisher=Comic Book Resources|archive-date=January 23, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210123011811/https://www.cbr.com/cobra-kai-season-3-easter-eggs/|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=https://www.slashfilm.com/cobra-kai-creators-interview-season-3/|title='Cobra Kai' Creators Reveal Which Characters Can Return to the Show and What to Expect from Season 4 [Interview]|access-date=2023-11-23|last=Topel|first=Fred|date=2021-01-15|publisher=Slashfilm|archive-date=January 18, 2021

In addition, throughout Cobra Kai's run, there was speculation that Hilary Swank might reprise the role of Julie Pierce from The Next Karate Kid (1994). According to Heald, they had a storyline involving Julie related to Mr. Miyagi and the mystery of a stolen necklace, "but before we got too deep, we had to reach out to Hilary and find out would she be willing to come and play with us."{{cite web

The series was promoted at the annual Television Critics Association's winter press tour held in January 2018, when YouTube's global head of original content Susanne Daniels described the show: "It is a half an hour format but I would call it a dramedy. I think it leans into the tone of the movie in that there are dramatic moments throughout. I think it's very faithful really in some ways to what the movie set about doing, the lessons imparted in the movie if you will. It's next generation Karate Kid."{{cite web|last1=Topel|first1=Fred|title=Karate Kid YouTube Series Cobra Kai Is Faithful to the Movie, Not A Comedy [TCA 2018]|url=https://www.slashfilm.com/karate-kid-youtube-series-not-a-comedy/|website=/Film|access-date=February 16, 2018|date=January 13, 2018|archive-date=November 15, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201115221438/https://www.slashfilm.com/karate-kid-youtube-series-not-a-comedy/|url-status=live}}
