Paul Walter Hauser had a great night at the 80th Golden Globe Awards. The actor won Outstanding Performance by a Supporting Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology Series or TV Movie for his role in black bird, which you can stream with an Apple TV+ subscription. Twitter users celebrated Hauser’s big win, though it’s unclear whether or not they’ve seen the police drama. it was actually the cobra-kai fans celebrating and wanting to congratulate their beloved actor Stingray on his success at the awards show.
Leading the chorus of congratulations for Paul Walter Hauser was actually one of his co-stars, Alicia Hannah-Kim. Hannah-Kim plays a ruthless sensei Kim Da-Eun, who appears to be next in line as the big bad after the end of cobra-kai Season 5. The actress praised Hauser for Chirpingand perhaps even attracted the attention of cobra-kai fans who weren’t watching the awards ceremony:
!!!!!!! Congrats Paul!!!!!!!! 🎊🎉 #cobrakai #stingray
Alicia Hannah-Kim is no doubt aware of Hauser’s work outside of success. Karate Kid divided. Apparently, there are many Netflix subscribers who may not be aware of the award Hauser was nominated for. A large number of viewers flocked to the web and were surprised that the Stingray artist was nominated for an award:
LMAO DIDN’T KNOW COBRA ACTOR KAI STINGRAY WAS NOMINATED FOR A GOLDEN GLOBE 🤣🤣🤣 #GoldenGlobesJanuary 11, 2023
It’s certainly shocking to see online that there are people who don’t know that Paul Walter Hauser played a major role as a cast member in cruel which prevented him from showing up cobra-kai Season 3. And of course he starred in Riccardo jewel too, as well. Nor is it surprising to see cobra-kai fans who are just happy to see Hauser get what he deserves as an actor:

Personally, I think the funniest reactions on Twitter thus far have come from fans referring to Paul Walter Hauser exclusively as Stingray. While that wasn’t his intention, fan reactions make it sound like he’s the fan-favorite burnout of the Netflix series that’s been honored by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association:
I can’t express how happy I am that Cobra Kai’s Stingray is finally getting the recognition it deserves. #GoldenGlobes https://t.co/oBt4dxDhPLJanuary 11, 2023
Stingray wasn’t the most loved character in cobra-kai after lying to the police about who attacked him, in favor of Terry Silver. However, the character found redemption at the end of season five when he retracted his confession and put Silver behind bars. The character deserved a trophy for that brave act alone, so I guess it’s somehow (in a weird way) fitting that some viewers want to believe that Stingray won that award:

However, one has to ask, as Paul Walter Hauser’s star power in Hollywood continues to grow, how long will he be available to appear? cobra-kai. Luckily, Stingray is only a recurring character who has appeared infrequently in the past five seasons, so if he’s not available for future seasons, it shouldn’t be too difficult for the writing team to figure out a way to make up for any absences. . Still, it would be nice to see him stick around for a sixth season, although I don’t know how the show would justify his trip abroad with the students for the international tournament. I’ll leave that to the powers that be and add my name to the dozens of fans who congratulated Paul Walter Hauser on his award.
Flow cobra-kai Seasons 1-5 (that baffled us) on Netflix right now. We are still waiting for an official renewal for season 6, but one has to imagine that it will come sooner rather than later.
