Oh I agree hot as hell. I didn’t think much of him in the original karate kid but I was very young when that came out. 21st century Johnny on the other hand wow lol.

Billybagpuss · 26/06/2021 17:18

Oh yes

Idontlikeshouting · 26/06/2021 17:38

Totally! But you need to watch the programme to get it! Daniel, otoh, seems completely sexless.

paniniswapx3 · 26/06/2021 17:38

@trancepants

I agree the he's not particularly hot in photographs. But in that last season finale, when he is fighting Kreese and carefully but firmly fending off Robbie. He was hot as fuck. He was just the definition of controlled power and you just know that if he looked at you like that in the bedroom, some of the absolute best hours of your life would be about to start.
I think this is probably the best description I've ever read on Mumsnet Grin (& I totally agree!)

are we gonna get in trouble for this this...

asking for a friend 👀

Fernando072020 · 26/06/2021 19:38

Agreed! 🤣

HelloChompy · 26/06/2021 20:21

Definitely hot 😁 I'm mid 40's so grew up with Karate Kid. Though I was always team Daniel back then, Johnny was always the more fanciable character in my opinion! He has aged really well. I've actually binge watched all of Cobra Kai 3 times now and can't wait for the next season 😁

Claymorekick · 26/06/2021 20:54

I knew I had it bad when I was genuinely jealous of Miguel's mum (fictionally) sleeping with him Grin

Agree about Amanda LaRusso too - she is far too good for Danny! I love how she is so confident that she was not phased about Danny's first love coming back into town and actually embraced the situation and handled it so well Smile

Ladywinesalot · 26/06/2021 21:00

Yea he is 😁

@NiceGerbil

I thought this was a baby names thread!
Yes me too. I was about to respond with - "I'm not keen on Cobra" !
IHaveBrilloHair · 28/06/2021 17:22

I got up at 7.30am on NYD so I was ready to watch series 3 as soon as it dropped, now that's dedication!
I love when they do the Insta photos and he eats the sushi, and when he throws the book in the bin
The porn mag on the fishing rod cracked me up too.

Whoever came up with the idea of this series is a genius.
Dd and I are waiting for the date of when S4 will be released.
Another 7.30am get up obvs Grin
I also have both a Cobra Kai and Eagle Fang Tshirt

Iblinkedandiamold · 28/06/2021 17:40

Johnny is more attractive now than he was back in the 80s/90s.

IHaveBrilloHair · 28/06/2021 18:30

Back then we all loved Daniel.
Noooooo, Johnny all the way.
I can't wait to see Terry Silver.

Frazzledd · 28/06/2021 19:38

Oh I was always team Johnny, but then I also had a thing for the vampires in the lost boys....Grin

Aww we did the same and binged it that day in our pj's, it was ace and felt like a tv "event " IYSWIM.

They really have got the balance of appealing to young 'uns and relating to the original audience oldies.

Yes I loved the Insta photos too ...actually it was that scene that prompted this thread Grin

I also felt really protective of Sam when she was having her panic attacks too. Although realise she is nowhere near blameless.

Can't wait for Bad Sensai Kreese to get his come uppaance too.

I'm surprised we haven't all had a good scolding for objectifying the menz yet ...

IHaveBrilloHair · 28/06/2021 20:53

I think two t-shirts means I love him the mostest.Grin

IHaveBrilloHair · 28/06/2021 20:55

I'd objectify him naked happily Grin

hashbrowntag · 28/06/2021 21:01

Ohhhh I so get it OP! You HAVE to have watched the series though!

His character is brilliant too, he's so convincing ! And so funny too..."your legs are pussies" and his uselessness at modern tech 'hash brown' 😅

Jonny 😍😍😍

Ah yes, his tech inadequacy is hilarious. When he's trying to get connected to "the cloud"!!!

Reminds me of Vince Vaughan in the Internship trying to invent Facebook and when he's driving the kids mad talking about "on the line"!

The show is so un PC it's cringe and funny. I loved the whole cultural appropriation remark and Daniel replying "it was Mr mfavou's favourite song.
I loved the vampires in the lost boys too, in fact I love Keifer Sutterland as a bad boy.
I also have a thing for Cain Dingle in Emmerdale and Mac.
Also Will Mellor makes a very attractive bad boy.
I'm starting to see why I am still single.
