Why is Robby the only one facing repercussions for self defense?
Robby is one of the kids I least like, deservedly or not. He started off bad, stealing with his crew. He won't cut his father any slack. He lied to LaRusso to get a job. He joined the arch enemy dojo. He back-door'd his way to steal Miguel's girlfriend. He's a bad seed. Or maybe he just reminds me too much of Ice Man. He did step up in prison though so that was something. I can see a future episode where Robby and Miguel are wingmen.

I liked Robby’s redemption arc.

And s3 blows it up entirely.

Unpopular truth: Miguel made the better villain.

He also hit Sam.

Don't see the comparison between Robbie and Ice. Ice may have been a dick but nothing in the movie had him doing anything illegal, cheating, lying, etc.

I was speaking of looks, but at the same time, doing things illegal, cheating, lying, etc. is kind of being a dick.

I totally see the young Kilmer comparison. I had the same thought as I was watching the series.

Looks, yes.
Character between Ice and Robbie? No.

Ice maybe was a jerk, but he could be your wing man any time. Robbie, not so much. Like just about every character from Cobra Kai, he will more likely make a stupid decision than a good one.

Finally watched Season 3 in it's entirety. It left me wanting more of Chosen and the Vietnam flashbacks. Of course, that is was probably the point. I heard last week that Thomas Ian Griffith is rumored to be in Season 4.

I don't think I'm giving anything away by saying that regardless of his redemption, Hawk belongs in juvy and Tory with Y belongs in Bellvue.

Tory should get an early start on her eventual career. Hawk to Juvie, and then a lifetime at Jiffy Lube in the pits.

Finally closing in on the end of season 3. Some thoughts.
  • Somebody just needs to quietly kill Kreese. Poison perhaps.
  • Johnny had best not screw things up with Miguel’s hot mom by going after Ali
  • Ali is back! Very cool. ? Elizabeth Shue
  • Miguel + Sam and Robby + Tori are simply better pairings.
  • Daniel’s wife in that red dress at the hearing. Wow.
  • Hawk is a POS.
  • Demetri and the hot girl. Revenge of the nerds.

Miguel and Sam have zero chemistry.

Very astute observations. They did a really good job with this show. A little corny like the original movie yet intriguing enough to keep you coming back. Delightfully tacky yet unrefined.

I just saw an episode of Ridiculousness w/ Peyton List (Tory) as the guest. She seems fairly down to earth, and not even slightly psychotic IRL.

Yeah, I know. I didn't use an emoticon but I was being fairly tongue in cheek w/ my previous comment.



Although there are a number of "actors" who really don't do much acting, they're just portraying themself on screen. Seth Rogen might be the worst offender, but there are others.

Yes, I did mean Tory, not Peyton. Who started as a Disney girl, like many others.

I followed that you meant the character, not the actual actress. Just interesting that such an unlikable character is played by a seemingly charming and nice young woman. But as pointed out above, that's why they call it acting. And of course not all Disney (or Nickoledeon) kids end up being somewhat well adjusted and decent as they reach adulthood.

My son was watching Back To The Future and when he finished he started the sequal. The beginning of the sequal seems to start off with the ending scene of the first. One big difference, and I never knew about it until now.
