Netflix’s “Cobra Kai” leans hard into the nostalgia of the Karate Kid movie series. The past three seasons have brought back a number of characters to the series. Season 4 is no different, with the return of Thomas Ian Griffith’s Terry Silver. The series has been slowly building toward the right moment to bring back Cobra Kai dojo co-founder Terry Silver, and that time has come. Terry Silver was the main villain in “The Karate Kid Part III.” Terry co-founded the first Cobra Kai dojo with John Kreese. He never forgave Daniel for beating at the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, so he hatched an elaborate plan to get revenge. That plan’s failure will likely lead to the Netflix series.
