I wonder if Jackie can show up in the final episode to help out.

When it girst came out I figured it was just gonna be a nostalgic money grab.
I'm very glad it turbed out to be a great show and I'm sad its ending.

Yeah, or his character could come to warn them of an impending new threat that they decide to team up against leading up to the movie.

But realistically, I have a feeling it's going to be about a mixed martial-arts world championship event where the two meet. Previously, the show focused on the All-Valley Tournament, but it's also mentioned other tournaments in the last season, so I could perhaps imagine one of the Dojos, or both moving up to a higher-level tournament that happens to be mixed. That'd be fun to see, and it would possibly also have higher stakes.

Netflix usually chases sugar high ratings. It must have a heck of a following to continue for 6 seasons.

It's been a very successful and popular show. The 6th season was announced awhile back too. I know that each season has been highly anticipated.

I think it's a pretty cheap show to run too.
Capitalism tries for a delicate balance: It attempts to work things out so that everyone gets just enough stuff to keep them from getting violent and trying to take other people’s stuff.

Possibly. I mean, it's not like the acting talent is a bunch of A-listers. But they've done very well in returning to their characters or creating new ones in a way that feels very sincere.

Zabka has been consistently good in the show in a way that surprised me. I’m really surprised he’s not getting more work based on his performance.
He won. Period.

If I may be pedantic for a brief moment here...

awhile is an adverb that means "for a while", and as such should modify a very. "I can wait awhile, but I need to get going."
while is a noun that means a period of time; "This is probably going to take a while, you may want to sit down."

Yeah, that was quite pedantic... I'm usually better at this, but once in a while, I make a mistake. :P No need to preach to me. My Mom is a grammar nazi, and I'm generally well aware of what's proper.

Well, I'm sorry if I ticked you off with that. If I'm ever pedantic, I'm doing it as a casual cheap-poke from a friend, I don't mean to actually sound like a grammar nazi. I can't afford the hypocrisy that role would bring upon me.

Nah, no worries. The timing just wasn't the greatest as I'm currently frustrated at having lost something.

In like 4th grade or something, there was a poster in one of my classrooms that had the word "alot" with a saw, sawing the "a" off the "lot" and they were almost separated...

So, that's actually one of the first pets I ever had.

So, according to Dark Horizons, apparently the Cobra Kai team is helping out where they can with the movie, which makes this more promising.
Dark Horizons wrote:An update from Gizmodo indicates that while the team behind Netflix’s smash hit “Cobra Kai” aren’t directly involved in the project, they have been involved in the process.

Sony Pictures Television produces “Cobra Kai” for Netflix, whilst Sony Pictures is producing the film. The site indicates the show’s creators Jon Hurwitz, Josh Heald, and Hayden Schlossberg know the film is happening and have offered assistance when asked.
Dark Horizon wrote:Rob Lieber (“Peter Rabbit”) wrote the script which follows a teenager from China now living on the U.S. east coast. They find strength and direction via martial arts and a tough but wise mentor.
