Nick is the single worst organization on the planet. All they really want is more Spongebob clones, and thats it. The thing is, Avatar is their true critical darling.

I have always thought this. Even before Avatar, Nick was killing shows. I remember the creator of Invader Zim fighting with the Nick executives over Nick being assholes. He also called one of the executives a count

The only reason I haven't watched this is because I'm not caught up. I think M Night is partly to blame here. If Nick cancels this, frick them.

The other creator of Zim went on to create Avatar.

Bout to go to bed, but I'm bracing myself for the worst. I'd shite my pants (in a good way) if Nick sold the rights off to Netflix, but I doubt that's what's going to happen tomorrow.

Is Legend of Korra any better than the previous installment; the last airbender? I found that series much too childish, with dumb dialogue and annoying characters.

It's a bit more seasoned a show. I don't care for Korra herself much. But I love the universe and the bending, I couldn't care less about anything else.

However, the Nick BS is not surprising. What did they expect to happen? Air a damn show on Friday night...with next to no forewarning? It's ridiculous. Plus, like most execs, they care about merch. And kids don't really buy stuff that ain't cutesy anymore.

It's why Cartoon Network keeps cancelling good shows like Green Lantern, Young Justice...but will promote the Regular Show, Adventure Time, or that Gumball thing. Basically, Spongebob clones. Hell, Adventure time even has Tom Kenny in it.

Mike and Bryan deserve better than Nick. They always have.

It's more mature than the previous series for sure, but just curious, how far did you make it in the previous series? If you didn't make it to the second season, you should give it another shot.

But I can say just about for certain that tomorrow is going to be the most awkward Comic Con presentation of all time.

Hey Korra Nation! Phew. Some of you may have heard versions of this news elsewhere, but here’s the official word. After this Friday’s on-air premiere of Episode 8 “The Terror Within” at 8/7c, all remaining Book 3 episodes will move to a digital rollout. That means two things: 1) Korra is NOT cancelled, 2) the remaining episodes will roll out weekly on Nick.com and the Nick app beginning August 1, as well as on platforms like Amazon, Google Play, Xbox and Hulu.

Thousands of you have been asking to watch this incredible show online, so hopefully this news works in your favor. Mike and Bryan created a breath-taking season for us all…so get ready to watch it all go down!!!

Thanks for being the BEST fans in the industry and see you at Comic-Con.


Well, I guess they've finally figured out their audience and are now going to put it all online legally again, and solely. Sad it's not making it to the network over stupid shite, but they keep on insisting that Season 4 is safe still.

I hate having to go online to get shows. I prefer just letting my DVR catch it and then watching it when I have time.

If Season 2 was a chore, the show may not be for you. Basically that season was the Empire Strikes Back of television.

Seriously. And for the new series, watch The Beginnings, part 1 and 2.

Amazing. Could be the best two episodes in the entire franchise.

So here's the panel at Comic Con: LINK

And just saw the new episode. Great one, and honestly, I don't think the truth seer was acting alone. I think that Toph's daughter is in on it as well, and the Order of the Red Lotus is alot larger than we think, and their purpose is ending the Avatar. I really think Su wants the Avatar to go to Zaheer and the rest of them, and this is all a front.

Supposedly this season ends on an enormous cliffhanger and that it's likely the villains from this season will be the villains in the next and final season, so I'm really hoping that happens. I really like these villains, and am sure that Zaheer has a sub-bending type like the others do. Voidbending would be the next most powerful next to bloodbending, and it would be great to behold.

The beginnings part 1 and 2 are some of the greatest animation/cartoon epsiodes I have ever watched



Wish they would do a series on Wan. His character and his voice actor did an amazing job

Are all of the episodes for the season on there? I thought they were going to make a new one available each week.
