First 6 episodes are out. Just watched 1, so far it has lost its appeal to me but I guess I will give it more time.
The age thing is a huge problem, the daughter is a senior in HS played by a 28 year old, Tory is 26, they're almost all in their mid 20's and not believable in the roles.
I'll give it some more time but the first few seasons was cool nostalgia, episode 1 was more about me laughing.

Isn't this the final season? Age was a factor beyond season 2, IMO. As soon as Terry Silver returned though the quality dipped and overall age issues became harder to overlook.
I haven't started S6 yet (going to tonight) but I agree on the kids' ages for the last couple seasons. I always thought (not sure if I said it here) that they needed to do what Friday Night Lights did and rotate out the kids after a few seasons.
I'm 4 episodes in and it's not catching me like previous seasons. In the past I burned through it in a night. This season I'm only doing an episode or two and then looking to watch something else. The adults stuff is good for the most part but the kids are once again the weak point of the show. No surprise since they were in previous seasons.
I hope they go somewhere with the Mr. Miyagi and it wasn't just thrown in for random drama. I don't want to give him a checkered past just to knock him down a peg.
Ugh on the LaRusso kids. Does anyone buy either of them as a fighter? They feel way too forced.
The bad guys. Not again. We're in the too repetitive sage now.
When the pink bomb went off. I swear that the "I'm too old for this" line was from Ralph and not Daniel.

I finished the first 5, it got better but still wasn't really getting in to it.
the twist at the end was too predictable and again as is being said online makes no sense at all. I won't spoil it but totally implausible.

Yeah… that ending of 5 was definitely plot pushing character instead of the other way around.
A new bad guy has a showdown with Johnny in the 2nd half of the season!!!!

The kids were fine early on. The first 2-3 seasons. It was after Miguel learned to walk again that I'd gotten sick of their drama. The love square with Tori, Miguel, Sam, and Robbie is exhausting and unnecessary.
Watched all but the last episode. I'm liking this season and find it bittersweet it's ending. I wish there was more now but waiting until November made me stop at the last episode so I don't get stuck on a cliff hanger, as I'm expecting.
I have to say I didn't mind the kids this season at all, at least most of them. I like Hawk, Tori, Kenny, Miguel, Sam, and Devin while the only kid I don't like is Anthony. His inclusion feels forced and he reminds me of Daniel in KK3, when he was his most annoying. I really don't care for him at all and its worse considering how far he's come in terms of his karate skills in such a short time.
I think my main issue with the kids is how they shoehorn in the romantic drama with them. I enjoyed the guys (Miguel, Hawk, and Demetri) visiting the college. Its when the boys and girls are together though that it gets unbearable for me.
Love the stuff with Johnny. He definitely carries the show. Hope things go well for him but not in too much of a Hollywood way.
I did like Mike Barnes return. I didn't care much for the attempt at suspense as far as who goes to the Takai Sekai. However they did the best they could with it.

Nice, I didn't realize there was a part 3 to S6. I thought the episodes that dropped today was the end of the series.

Season six, episodes 6 through 10 are now on Netflix. I enjoyed all 5 episodes. If you liked the fighting scenes that took place in the high school, you'll be very entertained in episode 10.
The final 5 episodes will air in February.

Better off silent
I just started binging the first part of the season, and it's ok -- the Kreese stuff is plain ridiculous. Only thing he's missing is a long thin moustache to twirl.
Ok, so binged the whole thing, and after they get to the Sekai Tekai, it really takes off. That last episode was bonkers.

As much as I have enjoyed the show it's definitely jumped the shark.
I agree, I loved the early seasons but S6 just isn't working for me. It's lost a lot of the charm and has gone too over the top with the eye rolls on some of the story lines. Bringing back Kreese, again, would have made the Fonz proud.
