baumer Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 This is a show that is on You-Tube Red. There are ten episodes. The first two are free and then each of the remaining 8 are $2.49. It reunites William Zabka and Ralph Macchio. I've seen the first 6 episodes and I have to say I absolutely love it. Worth every penny for sure.

Ryan Reynolds Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) plenty of 30 day trials for those who want to check out the full series, no need to pay for those skeptical Edited May 6, 2018 by Ryan Reynolds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrylos 7 Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Loved it. The trailers were a bit misleading, this is not a comedy, parody whatever, this is a direct continuation of the karate kid that captures the spirit of the original perfectly and ....DAT ENDING .... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANK YOU!! It absolutely captures the essence and the feel of the first movie. Zabka and Macchio nail it but so does the young cast. I thought Miguel, Robbie, Samantha and Hawk and Aisha were terrific as the youngsters. Macchio said in an interview that the three producers/writers were huge KK loonies. He said this was their Star Wars and it shows. From the locales of the original Spoiler (Golf and Stuff was my favourite) to the rivalry of the two of them to everything in between, it was just awesome! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they did do their best to get some of the original music in there, and then there was the Bananarama cupcakes or pancakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you only watch the first two free episodes? Maybe if you gave the rest a chance you might like it more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Well you must draw into the Karate Kid Cinematic Universe to really get into this. However, if you love the original, you will love this show. It is perhaps a bit simplistic and seems it was made on a low budget but it has a ton of heart and is a very simple fun storyline. The show is an overwhelming success, as it has gotten over 27.5 million views in less then 2 weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) This show is amazing, what KK sequels should have been. It's really strange they waited so long cause fans were clamoring for Kai-centered stories. Zabka deserves all awards!
