Elisabeth…motherfucking…Shue Holy shit she hasn’t lost a step and is still a smoke show. She has the best laugh too. Thankfully not cursed with the hot lady/nails on a chalkboard cackle. Finished season 3. I assume that’s a wrap on Ali. I hope I’m wrong, but if she were to stick around, she would’ve gotten back with Johnny in the Christmas ep for sure. She was one of my first crushes. Her use in the show is a perfect example of the great writing. |

Starting season 4
Terrance is the only person from the movies who actually looks his age. Kreese looks old too, but he’s always looked 60. He has Greg Valentine syndrome.

Wait, Terrance got PTSD from his chef preparing breakfast with a mini blowtorch? Haha.
There’s also more babyface/heel turns on this show than a 2004 Big Show run.

The final one is the only one I didn't like.

Yeah Show throwing Angle off the parking garage, but somehow ending up a babyface after Kurt tranq darted him was good. Team Angle shaved his head. So what I’m saying is Eli is the Big Show of Cobra Kai |

1/2 way through season 5. This has been the least enjoyable season so far. I know Silver has been a good villain thus far in the psychological mind games, but the rest of the characters I don’t care about this season for the time being. I didn’t care about Miguel going to Mexico to randomly find his father. Nor have I cared about Johnny finding out he’s going to be a father again. Maybe some twists will come to make me care, but not so far.
Legit question, are the main kids still in high school? Do they ever address this? They went to prom last season (4) and have been in school since season 1, so I guess that was their senior prom? Maybe their junior prom? Reason I ask is why the hell did we need a turf war at a water park for seniors in high school? Felt like an episode that should’ve been in season 1.
I’m trying to really make these final 10 eps last before I’m all caught up. But I’ll be done probably by next week.

The kid who plays Kenny’s father is former MLB player Eric Young Sr.

Season 5 ep 8
The dude who plays Gunther, the spokesman for the global dude that Silver wanted to get sponsorships with before Daniel, Johnny, Chozen & Amanda interrupted.
That guy was Wolf, the villain in Mighty Ducks 2. The coach from Iceland.
Another random tidbit.

Man, Tyron Woodley got more offense in his time on the show than some of his fights. Ba-dum-bum.
Also he got his fingy chopped off, which was hilarious. Great sell job by the former champ

That’s a wrap on season 5. Finale was very fun. Penis Breath Mitch did a heel turn that lasted literally as long as Big Show at Survivor Series 2014.
Only thing I was kinda lame about was all these kids who were brainwashed and never snapped out of it all season just realized it was all bullshit when they realized Silver paid off the ref.
Happy Kreese is back and Silver is hopefully gone. It was his time to leave.

That 90s Show season 2 is up on Netflix for 8 episodes Less focus on Leia, the main character and more so on the other characters, Red & Kitty and also a shit ton of cameos, including some old characters from 70s show. There’s some funny stuff, but I liked season 1 better. Season 3 is coming October 24th. So season 3 was actually August 22. I’m on episode 5 right now and haven’t laughed once. They’ve already ran out of ideas. Overacting & laugh track are overkill. Kitty & Red have nothing to do. An episode was focused on Red throwing away an old vacuum and Kitty was crushed she didn’t get to say goodbye. That’s where they’re at now. Zero clue if this makes it another season. Wouldn’t be shocked if it’s cancelled. But I assume it’s relatively cheap to make and it does good streaming numbers. So it could probably go on. |

The final scene of the season they remembered oh shit, maybe the main couple of the series should have a little conflict this season.
Jim Rash came back as Fenton in the finale and was literally the only time I laughed the season.
Season 1 was good
Season 2 was ok
Season 3 was trash

I’m officially (and sadly because I’m out of new eps) all caught up on Cobra Kai
This show rules so fucking much.
I could nitpick things, but this first part of the final season has really set the table well for the final two parts.

Hopefully they redeem themselves for a very below average season 3 finale

NBC Sports Chicago shuts down on September 30th, with the last sporting event they broadcast being a 2024 White Sox game.
That just seems like excessive punishment.

And Will Buxton playing the role of Meltzer except actually knowledgeable and capable of reporting fairly and accurately yet have opinions that don't interfere with that objectivity. You know, a real professional.

Queen of Villains was rad. Check it out. 5 eps, good shit.
They really went into the history of Dump Matsumoto & the Crush Gals.
I watched it with Japanese language and English subtitles.

I watched the first 3 episodes and yeah it's solid.
Also watched the first episode of Penguin and I enjoyed it. Nice little crime drama.

I remember when I was little I only knew Lioness Asuka from the 95 Survivor Series. JR tried telling us about the Japanese girls and Vince had no fucking clue.
Asuka was the first out within like a minute. She’s this legend in Japan and just a joke in the US.
