If you like cartoons, and if you like good TV shows, then I urge you to add Avatar: The Last Airbender to your Netflix queue. Or go pick it up at Blockbuster or whatever your local rental place is.
My roommates and I have been watching this show for the past three weeks, and it is CRACK. Funny, engaging, heartwarming, heartbreaking, addictive CRACK.
We just got the final DVD in the mail today. And we’ll be watching it this evening.
I can’t wait.
All right, back to work.
I liked it too. I would say that the long story arc contributes to the addiction factor. A strength and also challenge for the show. With a movie supposedly on the way, it is good to see a different production like this have traction beyond young kids.
I just finished a take on the series as a whole if you want to check it out.
