Netflix has announced that the third season of Cobra Kai will be released early than first reported.
As an early Christmas present for all of us, the streaming giant has revealed that season three of the beloved martial arts comedy-drama will be released on January 1, instead of the originally scheduled January 8.
That's right, when we're all reeling from a locked-down New Year's Eve, we get to start 2021 right with Johnny Lawrence.
The announcement was made on the official Cobra Kai Twitter page, in a humorous video that showed Lawrence - played by William Zabka - sitting at a laptop and changing the release date himself.

Lawrence also provided a written message to his fans, telling them:
"QUIET! I heard you all whining about Season 3 taking forever. So I called the pawn shop and the guy walked me through this Netflix thing. Dude knows his stuff. Now you get it a week early. See you Jan 1, nerds."
Per ComicBook.com, season three of Cobra Kai will see Daniel LaRusso - played by Ralph Macchio - return to Okinawa, the home of Mr. Miyagi, and reunite with old friends and foes.
Both Kumiko and Chozen, characters from The Karate Kid Part II, are also set to make their returns to the series.
