It is. I think it's free with ads or gonna be free with ads again. I know it was free a while back. I know Season 3 is gonna be free with ads. You will have to wait weekly for new eps if you watch free or pay and get all the eps. Honestly, its worth every penny, esp if you like the Karate Kid franchise. You could always wait to season 3 drops and do the free youtube premium trial, watch all three seasons, then cancel the subscription before the trial is over.
