Customer Rating: Summary: Best Show on TV Period! Comment: I am in my 40's and fell absolutely in LOVE with this series from the very first Episode on Nickelodeon! Slowly with each following episode the rest of the family got involved in watching it with me. In this season 1 Aang (who is freed from a century-long sleep inside an iceberg)awakens to find all of his dearest friends missing and discovers the hard way that they have been killed by hostile armies of fire benders. This season follows Aang and his new found friends Sokka, a goofy fun loving teen that doesn't take anything seriously, and Katara, who takes everything very seriously as he becomes reacquainted with the world he knew before his 100-year hibernation. This series is a timeless treasure for me and my family and I would LOVE to see more seasons of it be made. Customer Rating: Summary: Who Will Like This. Comment: Yes, another Avatar the Last Airbender review, but this one I believe will show who will and will not like this, and why. I was very slow to like this show myself. When I would catch it on television I dismissed it as another kid's show, but as it was on cable, a lot, I began to watch it more and more. Beneath what looks like a child's show is a pretty deep story with great character development. I am a big action/fantasy fan from hard sci-fi to Harry Potter, so naturally a story like this would appeal to me. Still, this may not appeal to all fantasy fans. After showing this to several friends and family members I realized if you don't like action, and you don't have much of an inner child, The Last Airbender will not appeal to you. If you do have the above qualities, though, you are in for a treat.
This series has wonderfully animated action, realistic dialogue and character development, and is a great way to convey more eastern philosophies and general moral lessons to kids. None of this, though, is done in a heavy handed or preachy manner. The show is fun, and to contain and teach all that it does is quite an accomplishment. I put this series as one of my top five animated shows of all time. Whether it's for a young person or a young person at heart it's well worth it. Customer Rating: Summary: This is the best ever, stick with it Comment: I happened upon this series accidentally. It was the best accident of my life. No matter what age you are, this is the series to watch. When you have completed watching the series, it will be like something has been ripped from your life. Customer Rating: Summary: Amazing series Comment: This DVD set has it all, no complaints and the dvd casing is very nice with artwork. in addition there is nice artwork on each of the dvd discs. The only thing that i found different is that the paper insert does not have a episode list which would have been great. but obviously a minuscule thing and its still an awesome set. Customer Rating: Summary: The Book Of Water Comment: I recieved this product promptly, the shipping was efficient, the product in mint condition and I loved this Book on the Water Nation. Avatar the Last Airbender is my favorite series, and I will continue to purchase from Amazon.
