There is much to admire. The visuals, direction, acting & cinematography are top notch. Most praiseworthy for me though, is the Incidental Music and soundtrack. The best in the world in my opinion. The nostalgia isn't over blown. It feels indulgent and luxurious, rather than cringe. That is much harder to achieve (ie balance) than it seems, as so many countless other shows clearly get it so horribly wrong in my opinon. I couldn't happier for the cast too. They are clearly having the time of their lives. I'm particularly happy for Zabka & Ralphy Boy. They deserve this. As an 80's kid, the karate kid movies had a decent impact, but this show has cemented and amplified that legacy in a way that is kind of miracle. The kismet of it all is heartwarming. Nuff Said!
