The Season 5 Episode 3 dedication goes out to a member of the CK family.
Part of the great thing about Netflixs Cobra Kai is that its a little bit of everything its got lots of karate and a great story yes but its also got moments that will make you laugh moments that will make you cry and a little bit of everything in between. And while much of the credit goes to the cast and co creators Jon Hurwitz Hayden Schlossberg and Josh Heald, the team that makes a TV show into the finished product you see on your screen is much much larger than that. And those teams working so closely for months at a time can start to feel like a family and when you lose a member of any family it hurts.
In Cobra Kai the show must go on theres a story to tell. But its worth noting that the show pays tribute in Episode 3 of Season 5 titled Playing With Fire to a member of its own family that was lost a man named Jeff Kay.Just as the screen fades to black at the conclusion of the episode following Mike Barnes seeing his furniture store burn to the ground likely thanks to the sinister mind of Mr. Terry Silver we get a tribute on screen In memoriam Jeff Kay 1965-2021
