This year
Ralph Macchio returned to the role that made him famous over 30 years and he has not aged a day since then. Don’t believe me, then look at how ridiculously hot The Karate Kid appears to be in this photo for SI. The 56-year-old, yes 56, is so insanely sexy here, I would swear it was for GQ instead. I would buy whatever he is selling for my man if I had one.
And on my lonely nights, Monday through Monday, I watch he and Billy Zabka is their series Cobra Kai on YouTube. It is the best show I have seen since Greg Berlanti’s Political Animals in 2012. If you have never seen the sequel to The Karate Kid, do it today. It is 10-hours of pure greatness. It sets the standard so high, I am having problems watching the fall pilots because none of them are anywhere as good as Cobra Kai. I promise you will be pleasantly surprised. They better all get Emmy nominations.
