Cobra Kai season 3 was filled to the brim with Easter eggs and callbacks to the Karate Kid franchise – but did you catch them all? If not, Netflix has shown mercy by releasing a new video that recaps every blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment from the recent season.

Ranging from cardboard cut-outs to episode titles, the sheer amount of Cobra Kai Easter eggs tucked away in the third season is staggering. Even a gi-wearing Karate Kid mega-fan would be hard pressed to have spotted some of these references.

Amazingly, even the short-lived Karate Kid animated series gets a shoutout in the background of one scene, while the Next Karate Kid – which we don’t like to talk about around here – features in a serious deep cut.

  • A character stood in front of a pile of weapons in BAKI-DOU: The Invincible Samurai. This week's Netflix top 10 shows and 3 you need on your watchlist right now (March 7–8)

All in all, there are 23 Cobra Kai season 3 Easter eggs, and you can watch the full rundown above. If nothing else, it’ll make your next Cobra Kai rewatch (this weekend, why not?) an even richer one now you know where to look for all the nods and winks to Karate Kid past.

But it’s the future, not the past, that the Cobra Kai creators are focused on. Speaking to GamesRadar+, creator Jon Hurwitz revealed that filming for Cobra Kai season 4 will begin imminently.

“We hope to be shooting the show in the coming months,” Hurwitz said. “We’re still figuring out some of the specifics, but the intent is for early [2021], to get back on set, with all the COVID protocols in place.”

In the meantime, check out the best Netflix shows and the best Netflix movies.

Senior Entertainment Writer

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
