The ’80s Favorite Way to Remind Everyone of What’s Going On Needs a Training Montage of its OwnWith 10 half-hour episodes, the (outstanding) new YouTube Red series Cobra Kai does for 1984 film The Karate Kid what Ryan Coogler’s Creed did for the Rocky hexology: exhibiting affectionate reverence to the occasionally ludicrous lore of its predecessors, without degenerating (that much) into smirking nostalgiabation. Somewhat surprisingly, it only features one real, legit throwback training montage… probably because five hours…
