'Cobra Kai' revives the 'Karate Kid' rivalry decades later, following Johnny Lawrence as he reopens the Cobra Kai dojo and reignites his lifelong feud with Daniel LaRusso, all while a new generation of students inherits their conflict. The series became a surprise hit for blending nostalgia with genuinely compelling new drama.
