Cobra Kai season 6 premiere date: A split-season argument?

Cobra Kai season 5

For everyone out there super excited to see Cobra Kai season 6, let’s go ahead and pose the following, all-important question: Is there a way Netflix could get the remaining episodes to us a little bit sooner?

At this point, it is pretty clear that the streaming service is starting to warm up to the idea of a split season. We saw this recently with Stranger Things, and we are going to be seeing this coming up with the fourth season of YOU. It makes sense to at least consider that the karate comedy could do something in this vein, as well, especially since we’re going to be waiting for a long time to see any episodes at all. Remember that the renewal was just announced this month, and there is no official start date for filming as of yet.

Without splitting up the season, it could be the very end of this year / early 2024 before we have a chance to see anything more on the air. If Netflix does opt for something like this, we do think there’s a chance that we could see episodes a good month or so earlier. The question that they then have to wonder is this: Is it really worth it just to get the show a short period of time earlier? That’s where we think there is some considerable debate.

For now, we are thinking that a split season order is unlikely, mostly due to the fact that these episodes are so short as it is and they really flow from one week to the next. Unless there is some massive cliffhanger halfway through the season, we tend to think that the streaming service will go in a slightly different direction instead.
