I'm glad he's doing well.

That said, his acting ...talent peaked at KK 1, much like Wil Wheaton he has a set limit skill.

eh...I wouldn't be surprised that he has something done, but at the same time, I'm just a few years younger than him and while my beard is fairly well "salt and pepper", I don't have any gray hairs on my head.

It could just be good genetics. I'm 55 and have been totally gray/white since my mid-30s. My father-in-law is 83 and has about 10 gray hairs in his head of otherwise jet black hair. No coloring.

And he's boring as hell. If you watch an interview, he's just so...blah. He doesn't have the bubbling outgoing charisma that many stars have.

Ralph Macchio very obviously colors his hair.  Although unlike people I see at classic rock concerts I go to, he DOES look good.  Some people very obviously look old and they're trying to think that simply coloring their hair makes them look younger... and it really doesn't.

He's 60? Pat Morita was only 52 when Karate Kid came out.

He's been really good in Cobra Kai. It's much better than expected

Ya, but he's got that bubbling, outgoing crane kick straight to the face.

We've been watching 'The Deuce' recently.  A good show where he did a ok/decent/serviceable job as a corrupt NYC vice cop.  The story moved along when he was on the screen, which thinking about it, is all you really want from minor characters.  You don't want them stealing the scenes and taking away from the main characters/main story arc.

So it's good to see that he moved past the 'kid actor' label and managed to carve out a career for himself.
