What is the buzz around 'Cobra Kai' Season 5?
The actor, Ralph Macchio told Collider in January 2022, “The creators find ways to take that story and let it evolve and find backstories for characters who might have been thinly written.

It is remarkable that what I would call the shortcomings of the original franchise are now bearing fruit 36 years later.”
