I happened to catch some of this when my kids were watching and --- wow! It is so well written. It has a great plot and a continuing story. I can't wait to get caught up.

When this show debuted, I thought it was OK, but missing a little something, so I lost track of it at some point, and I have probably missed quite a few episodes. I've recently seen several episodes from Book 2, and, wow, this has really become a strong show. The settings, character relationships, and the bending powers are impressive.

Sometimes I wish the characters were a little older. Even with their power and smarts, some of the things they achieve with little adult supervision or counsel stretch believeability.


(Inuyasha, Bleach, Ben 10 and Danny Phantom are some other current cartoons I sometimes enjoy.)

I happened to see an old one and the animation has definitely improved. I like the age of the characters. My kids love it.

This show is great! I love everything about it. The storytelling, animation and voices seem to be spot on for me. I love how this fledgling animation company is blossoming and just getting better with every show. I also love the way they incorporate the chi and flow of energy in the movements and philosophies into the show.

I have the season 1 dvd boxed set and can't wait for the 2nd season boxed set. It's just a little sad that "Maka" the voice of uncle Iroh died last year. He completed season 2 but it will be a new voice talent for season 3.

Really?! I was wandering who Maka was on that one episode. Thats really sad to hear, :( he was one of the best voices on the program, and plus, he voiced one of the best characters. Im going to have a hard time getting used to a new voice for Iroh. Well anyways, speaking of the season 1 dvd, im wanting to get that for Christmas. My whole family watches the show, i cant wait if we get it. :D
