Cobra Kai-Johnny

Who else is watching. I’m finding myself very much liking the blonde-baddy- extraordinaire Johnny Lawrence.

Yes he’s a bit wrinkly and puffy but I come over all funny when he kicks his leg really high.

He was actually better than drippy Daniel even in the film.

Hahaha yes we have watched it as am old enough to remember karate kid! It is very cheesy with some questionable acting!

He definitely has something about him! I also know my teenage self would have fancied his son!!

IHaveBrilloHair · 24/09/2020 19:00

He's hot!

OMG, Daniel is such a drip.

Me and OH have watched the first few episodes and have a burning question; Why the fuck are Daniel and Johnny so obsessed with the fight they had 35 years ago? They just keep going on and on about it.

anascrecca · 24/09/2020 19:01

Yep. I have his photo from Cobra Kai as my phone background Grin

Stompythedinosaur · 24/09/2020 19:07

I love this show! Agree Johnny is hotter than Faniel by far.

TitianaTitsling · 24/09/2020 19:11

Absolutely team Johnny!!

Pumpkinsarepurple · 24/09/2020 19:18

Binged watched the three series in three evenings, Johnny is fit!

I love his character in the series, can't wait for the next series!

I thought this was a proposed baby name. Relieved.

LucilleBluth · 24/09/2020 19:38

Cobra- Kai Johnny is an amazing name. 😀

I have Bill Hicks as my phone wallpaper (not my children of course). I may need a change.

Me and DH came up with the name River Trav-Kilmer for Johnny’s son....he’s the perfect amalgamation of River Phoenix, John Travolta and Val Kilmer. We say it every time he comes on and pouts.

It may be the best show since GoT..I’m actually serious.

I thought he looked like Val Kilmer too! Had to look him up to see if he was related. Now you say it I can see the other two too.

ProseccoSupernova · 24/09/2020 19:49

Grin river-trav Kilmer’s poster would definitely have been on my teenage bedroom wall!

billybagpuss · 24/09/2020 19:50

Loving Johnny in the series

Imnotamagician · 24/09/2020 19:58

Sorry if I'm sounding a bit dense but What are you all watching n what's it on? It sounds like my kind of thing as I liked the original movie - unless it is the film you're on about and I've read everything totally wrong

Do you have Netflix? There’s 2 series called Cobra Kai with the original Johnnie and Daniel, obv not miagi as he died but other cast members turn up too.
billybagpuss · 24/09/2020 20:01

It’s very well written with loads of little links to the films

Imnotamagician · 24/09/2020 20:04

Thanks for that -, yes we do have Netflix will have a look, I need something new to binge watch

InescapableDeath · 24/09/2020 20:20

It’s better than it sounds honestly! Really fun show to watch.

Obviouspretzel · 24/09/2020 20:27

It's fantastic. Daniel is such a dick but very funny. Johnny is definitely sexy.

billybagpuss · 24/09/2020 20:29

I’m kind of hoping Daniel and Johnnie become friends in season 3

LucilleBluth · 24/09/2020 20:33

We are definitely going to see Ali in season 3. I think that Johnny and Daniel will team up against Kreese...and of course they’ll be lots more sexy Johnny goodness.

Daniel is such a smug git in this isn’t he?

mbosnz · 24/09/2020 21:05

This is our guilty pleasure at the moment - and now the girls aren't here, so we can switch it on without getting 'that face'!

LucilleBluth · 25/09/2020 17:37

It’s not a guilty pleasure, it’s pure unadulterated pleasure 😀

IHaveBrilloHair · 25/09/2020 17:40

Excellent point, well made.
There's some great rumours online for Season 3, I can't wait for a start date.

InTheVelvetDarkness · 25/09/2020 17:40

God it’s so cheesy but I’m loving it too!

Johnny has definitely aged better than Daniel San Grin

I think it’s his nose and floppy hair and I don’t usually like blondes!

Love the soundtrack and cars.
Some of the lines are sooooo bad but it’s all fun isn’t it.
