Reviews

I legitimately don't understand the bad reviews for this episode. I thought it was a great closer with an ending that was genuinely surprising but not cheap and honestly well-earned. Ritchie kept the high levels of entertainment, while also injecting more drama and seriousness. The only part that bothered me was when you think a firefight's about to go down with The Gospel and his crew but then you find out the ENTIRE CREW somehow left without the mains knowing. Also there was a gunshot in the transition but not in the actual moment. Also the firefight would've been incredibly entertaining (but I'm glad it didn't happen for the sake of the story. However, horribly handled). But honestly, my only complaint. I fully expected that Eddie would stay in the game, but the show convinced me he wasn't, and then pulled the rug again. Well done, Ritchie. I loved this season, and I wouldn't be mad if they renewed it. In fact, I hope they do.

Sam has been annoying the crap out of me for a while now. Her old bestie gave her some really strong and deep advice about breaking the pattern and starting something good, and she decides to take that advice to relight the same old bs fire with Tory? Seriously? She should've tried to make amends, even on the surface, even if she's secretly keeping a close eye on her (which would be really smart obviously).

Other than that, this was a very filler episode, and Demetri talking Eli into returning was done pretty weakly, but it was alright. I've enjoyed Demetri's character development, and absolutely LOVED Eli's. Eli's arc has been crazy.

The subplot of Johnny finding a girl competitor was cheesy and annoying, and I couldn't tell if it was pulled from a sitcom, a CW show, or a lesser Netflix show from the late 2010s.

All-around, this episode was by far the weakest Cobra Kai episode so far. I love this show, and I honestly thought I was gonna hate it or think it was stupid when I started it, but it's one of my favorite shows of all time. Had to write a review for this ep, though. Not sure how they fumbled this one so badly.

That was one of the greatest creations I've ever had the immense pleasure of witnessing. The humor was great but almost always had a hint of darkness and/or sorrow, and the emotional moments of the special hit hard and deep. Content, Comedy, Bezos I, White Woman's Instagram (the video was so good too) Welcome to the Internet, and Goodbye are all amazing songs. The production is one of the most impressive things ever, especially since it's literally one man in one freaking room. Easily his best special and one I will likely rewatch multiple times. I finished it awhile ago and I still feel the impact of All Eyes on Me, his abrupt breakdown just before, and the shocking ending. Bo really opened himself up for us and it was the best thing he could've done here. I didn't expect a single thing that happened in this. If, like me, you thought he peaked at Make Happy, get ready for that to be broken down in a matter of minutes. I consider this a film, a work of art, in my top 20 favorite films of all time. I love Bo Burnham. In my opinion, he might be the greatest comedic artist of all time.
