Cobra Kai fans are in an emotional quandary right now as they wait for Season 6 to premiere on Netflix. Last month, Netflix officially announced that Season 6 was in the works, but also that it would be the final season of the show. Cobra Kai has become one of the most popular Netflix original series in the entire catalog, and six seasons is a pretty good run by the streamer’s standards.

Blake Shelton is allegedly “miserable” in his marriage to Gwen Stefani. According to Radar Online, the pair were spotted not having a good time at NASCAR’s Busch Light Clash. Stefani spent part of the event doing commentary for Fox. Later, however, sources claimed that the singer and her country star husband appeared unhappy…I would probably say ‘bored’…Do the cars get above 50 miles per hour in that small space?

Welcome to The List,
Game show host Chuck Woolery died on Saturday at his home in Texas. . . . TMZ reports that he went to lie down because he wasn't feeling well.
Chuck was the original host of "Wheel of Fortune" back in the late '70s . . . he went on to host the "Scrabble" game show in the '80s . . . and of course "Love Connection" from 1983 to 1994.
He also did some later shows, like "Lingo" on the Game Show Network, and "Greed" on Fox.
There's no word on a cause of death, Chuck Woolery was 83…

"Billboard" put out their list of the Top 100 Country Singers of All Time . . . and some folks are less than pleased. Specifically, because Taylor Swift was ranked above Brooks & Dunn, Hank Williams Jr., and Toby Keith. Also, Jason Aldean didn't even make the list at all..what’s THAT all about…..

Kansas City Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes is making around $50 million a year. But now, his wallet will be 0.03% LIGHTER . . . thanks to FINGER GUNS.
The NFL has fined Patrick $14,069 for the "violent gesture" he made last week, while celebrating a touchdown. He'd just scored on Buffalo, and Patrick used both hands to mimic firing dual pistols.
Let's be honest . . . he wouldn't have been fined for mimicking a bow and arrow . . . throwing knives . . . or dramatically acting out the extremely violent "finishing moves" from "Mortal Kombat". (Although that would be amusing.)
