Cobra Kai: Netflix releases a video showing 23 Easter eggs in season 3

Cobra Kai has fully embraced the nostalgia of The Karate Kid across its three seasons and now Netflix has released an official video that showcases nearly two dozen Karate Kid Easter eggs, callbacks, and references featured during its third season.

Fans have already taken to social media to point out a lot of the nods to The Karate Kid, particularly during season 3, and it looks like Netflix wants to offer up some help on their end. The video features a ton of references and it should be a fun watch for hardcore Cobra Kai and Karate Kid fans to see if they actually pinpointed some of the references themselves. You can check out the video below:

The third season of Cobra Kai has been wildly successful on Netflix. The show is on its way to more than 41 million households having watched season 3 of the show in its first 28 days. Season 3 is the first to exclusively premiere on Netflix, after its initial two-season launch on YouTube, and this makes it one of the streamer's top ten returning original series. Season 3 also has the distinction of reaching No.1 in 28 countries including the U.S., U.K., Argentina, Greece, and Sri Lanka. Netflix also discloses that, across all three seasons, 73 million households have watched an episode. With so many people watching, that means a lot of fans are playing the Easter egg hunt and looking for all the references to the 1984 film, as well as any of its sequels.

Cobra Kai takes place over 30 years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament with the continuation of the inescapable conflict between Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka). The third season finds everyone reeling in the aftermath of the violent high school brawl between their dojos, which has left Miguel in a precarious condition. While Daniel searches for answers in his past and Johnny seeks redemption, Kreese further manipulates his vulnerable students with his own vision of dominance. The soul of the Valley is at stake, and the fate of every student and sensei hangs in the balance. The series also stars Courtney Henggeler, Xolo Maridueña, Tanner Buchanan, Mary Mouser, Jacob Bertrand, Gianni Decenzo, Vanessa Rubio, Peyton List, and Martin Kove.
