Korra is absolutely thought provoking. Can you honestly say that about TMNT? Maybe the comics or 2K3 but anything else, I don't think so...

legend of Korra got annoying.......romance bleh.....and it didn't really solve the main problem in the end...you can't just have great animation to be a good show...

totally looking forward to TMNT more :3 but I'll give Korra another chance
(loved Avatar the last airbender~)

So, it's like an anime, but with a bigger budget?

It's basically the Cowboy Bebop of American animation. Where Bebop was an anime americanised, Avatar is an American production inspired by anime. Both are perfect in what they achieve!

Korra did resolve its central conflict btw, and it was much more complex than any other show on TV right now...

Me Three.

I love TMNT, but I only just discovered the 2K3 series last fall, and that is still an incredibly high bar for the Nick TMNT to climb to (being so fresh in my mind). I also agree that the Avatar cartoon is the best of all time. Korra isn't as good as Avatar, but it is a continuation and the music on that show is STELLAR. Seriously, watch Korra just for the music.

That said, TMNT is right behind Avatar/Korra, and I look forward to it more than anything else besides Game of Thrones.

I watched season 1 of Korra, but I can't say I enjoyed it. It started off ok, but the forced love triangle was cringe worthy, and the ending felt like a cop out. It looked gorgeous and seemed like it could have been an interesting story, but it just didn't all come together for me.

So yeah, very much looking forward to TMNT, and no plans to watch Korra. More guaranteed episodes could fix most of the flaws, though, so I might give it another shot sometime down the road depending on reviews.

Totally different things, Korra & TMNT. I am looking forward to both.

The Avatar series is amazing. Really well written. The continuity is stellar, attention to details is impeccable. Best newer show in a LONG while. Korra really surprised me and I am totally looking forward to S2.

TMNT ... I like for a totally different reason. I have been into TMNT since before the original cartoon (seriously, no joke). I really like what they've done with the Nick series. It's had something for everyone. The only thing I didn't like was the Mutant of the week thing, but they seem to have strayed (at least a little bit) away from that and started to focus on the story arcs already in motion. Loving the Splinter/Shredder/Karai thing and can't wait for more. Also looking forward Casey, Bebop, Rocksteady and Baxter mutating. I also hope to see some Triceraton's and Fugitoid.

Both shows are awesome.

I'm sure it's at least decent, considering the amount of fans, but it just isn't for me. If I can't get past the look of something I can't enjoy the story. Sorry, I'm not insulting your taste, just explaining mine.
