All of them written by John O'Bryan who is my least favorite writer of the series. Even his good episodes are usually not up to par with episodes from other writers.
Hey! Nightmares and Daydreams was funny XD

I'd argue terrifying is a more fitting description. I mean, did you see Aang's final nightmare?

Out of curiosity how old were you all when you watched Avatar for the first time? I feel I needed to see this show when I was still a teenager to get into it.

When was the TMNT 2012 show announced? I always hated Nickelodeon shows as a kid, so I watched A:TLA to get an idea of what an action show on Nick could be.

Then I could stand the Nick TMNT show for about three episodes before I had to either give up or shoot myself, hahah... But at least they made me watch A:TLA, so I'm grateful.

(It should be noted, I gave up on A:TLA, too, after the first season, but after a few weeks I missed the characters and had to return... Good thing I did!)

20 or 21. I didn't watch it until it was already over so I could binge the whole series in three days. It was so worth it.

Nick Turtles has strong characterization IMO. Probably because Teen Titans did too.

I find it interesting so many people nearly gave up on Avatar in the first season. I intend to watch the show to the end but I guess I am not alone in feeling the show had a slow start.

I don't think anyone 'nearly' gave up on Avatar in it's first season. Hell, 'The Storm' Episode had more and better characterisation than the entire Nickelodeon line-up until Korra came along.

That one episode is still written better than the entirety of the 2003 TMNT Or 2012 TMNT Series and I love both of those...

*reads thread*
I'm beginning to wonder if the reason Cubed is having a less than stellar time with Avatar is because it can't possibly live up to the status given it by its fans.
