Just read this from the nickandmore website (since I couldn't properly get the link right).

Quote:
It was only a matter of time…

Since its June 27 premiere, The Legend of Korra has been troubled with low ratings. From as high as 1.5 million on the first episode to as low as 1.1 million on the fourth and fifth episodes, it was only a matter of time before episodes were either rescheduled or pulled completely.

Now, the network has started pulling the episodes completely. After seven new episodes of Book Three’s 13 have aired, Nick has pulled one episode from this Friday as well as all four episodes from August 1 and 8.

Episode 8 “The Terror Within” is still airing this Friday at 8 p.m. (ET/PT).

No word on when (or where) the remaining five episodes will air. With a Comic-Con panel this Friday, we’ll likely find out pretty soon.

That's a pretty good way of implying the show getting cancelled. Would really suck if this were to happen since Season 3 has been leaps and bounds better than last Season.

Once again anther great action show gets completely **** on. Dammit I hope this series doesn't end on a cliff hanger I got a feeling if there is a book four its not going to get made now. That or if it is currently in production its getting put on hold now.

At least there is the Dark horse comics

Wow. That really sucks. I liked having two episodes in a row, but now that won't be happening anymore. I really hope this doesn't get cancelled. I've only just started becoming a fan!

If The Legend of Korra gets cancelled, so will the attention of any adult human being to the Nickelodeon channel.

And Nickelodeon will shed zero tears because that's not who they care about.

They still want to be taken seriously as a network and that would never happen if Korra gets cancelled.

Okay good news. The show's not getting cancelled according Brian Konietzko on tumblr. It's moving to digital, and that more will be said at SDCC.

not me...I don't like Legend of Korra.

and They still got TMNT.

Spoiler:
honestly though...I kinda figured something was gonna happen to LOK after that disappointing 2nd season. It sadly didn't live up to ATLA standards.

it looks pretty....but pretty can only cover up so much

it started off so awesome too.


at least it's gonna be on the internet for the fans of the show.

The scary thing is Nick's TMNT's ratings aren't much higher than Korra's. I mean thank god we already have through Season 4 confirmed...because after reading this I'd be worried for TMNT.

Looking over at the ratings thread, didn't TMNT only have 1.2 ratings for a new episode a few months back?

Ninja Turtles is on Sunday mornings; Korra was on primetime. Different expectations.

Turtles has more merchandise and toys ratings don't really matter much when it comes to those types of shows.

Yep, there are still two eps for this Friday. If it goes digital, that's fine for people who can watch stuff like that. I can't, so I'm screwed.

So this show is probably canceled which means this universe will likely never get any further sequels.

Unfortunately there's only 1 episode scheduled now. The remaining 5 will be available weekly on Nick.com, Hulu, Amazon, etc.

Not as long as the show keeps getting universally amazing reviews all around.

That is a good point.

But lets be honest Nick really did not expect the series to go this far despite their lack of marketing. This show was originally suppose to be a 12 ep mini series, but even with a lack of marketing the show was a huge hit.

If Nick would actually have properly marketed this show and had it slated to its original time slot then I think the rating would be greater.

Not according to my DirecTV guide, and I checked it after reading about the eps getting pulled. It still shows two eps being aired tomorrow.
