So I binged the rest of the season over the last couple of nights, and I thought it was a blast. There are some fun call-backs to the original of course, but they do a pretty great job of keeping the story fresh and engaging, and not relying too much on nostalgia.

The two leads both do a terrific job reprising the roles that made them famous, but William Zabka absolutely steals the show as Johnny. They've made him a more sympathetic, fleshed-out character this time around, and he's got some of the best dialogue. He's basically the protagonist of the first few episodes.

The young actors playing the kids were also quite good.

Overall, a very entertaining series with just the right mix of humor and seriousness. I hope they get to make more of these.

Spoiler!
