After much watching and soul searching I conclude that this show is amazing. It's like, nostalgic for something you never had and then it's all like OMGWTFEPIC. YO kinda was all like Reboot cause it was all like, lol funtimes but then it was all like zomg epic serious times now. Ending? wtf epic (little deus x but still a lotta win).
Yo dawg and dat fighting was all like phew awesome. And dem chars grew on ya and on themselves, ya know?
More coherent news on Avatar tomorrow.

Yep. Best series ever. EVery episode had an "omg, awesome" moment--whether epic, hilarious, or just something that made you feel warm and fuzzy inside for the characters. Ended much too soon. This movie better do it justice too or I will be disappointed for a bit...

Dude, just reading wiki on it has me even more enthralled. Like, the series is over, but I can't let it go. There's so much that you can read about and be like, oh yeah, well obviously the Fire nation is built upon Chinese lifestyle, the clothes, the names, the hair styles, everything but the landscape which is made to look like iceland. Awesome, right?
And as you go through the series it seems everything waxes and wanes between simple and complex themes. Like, they keep adding characters with new motives and new themes but at the same time they keep adding, they don't forget to continue to develop the characters they already have, whether by making an entire episode about him, or by one little line that signifies everything that that character means to the series. This is exactly what heroes I think tried to do but ultimately failed epicly by trying to do to much. Avatar has a great balance.
I only have a 15 minute break, but I seriously could talk about this show forever.
Ps. Zuko and Iroh are awesome, but I hold a special place for Toff. She kicks a lot of ass.

Man, I don't remember the last time I watched a show that ended so strongly. The finale was just so great and it tied up like all da stuff... But I still just want more.
Iroh was the coolest though on what, it was sad when the original actor died though cause he was amazing. I want to open a tea shop now. And heat the tea with my hands.
Sometimes when I'm sweeping at Saz's I pretend I'm waterbending and it makes it... well, it still sucks really bad but... yeah...
Ughh i gotta go get ready for Saz's now. Add watching every episode of Avatar again to the list of things we'll have to do during winter break.
Also, prequel game coming out? better be like amazing.

Iroh is my favorite also probably. (That episode full of short stories...his was by fer the best) Zuko also has some classic epic character development too. And the simplest, funniest moments were with Saka. But then all the minor characters too!! That crazy group of love hippies that lead Avatar & friends through that mountain, and all the epic trainers...
So we are all dressing up as someone from avatar this Halloween, right?

Ya, them hippies were da bomb. If youse gonna be Appa, I wanna be something cool too. Like Gran Gran... or MOMO
Not really, I'll be that crazy old guy who took back Omashu all by himself. King Bumi. He was bad ass, even if it seems he's still the second best earth bender, next to Toff.

Dude, be the Zuko from the play episode. That would be meta in some form I think. It would certainly be awesome.
