It’s a brand new year, with a new set of shows finding themselves at the top of the TV Demand charts.
Opening 2022 on top of both Digital Original and Overall Australian charts is the fourth season of Cobra Kai. With the series functioning as a sequel to the original Karate Kid movies, the latest installment landed on Netflix at the very end of 2021. This season is the first to be produced by Netflix after it purchased the series from YouTube TV.
In good news for fans, a fifth season has already been approved and is on the way to screens. While there isn’t a release date yet, co-creator Jon Hurwitz has revealed on Twitter that the fifth season has finished filming.
