But, what TMNT has going for it that Korra does not is an all male protagonist roster with a largely male fanbase. So of course it's being taken off broadcast and streamed online instead. Because if it's one thing that SDCC taught me, is that women just aren't interested in geeky things, and if they are they certainly don't BUY things.

It's the only conclusion I can come to after finding it impossible to get my hands on anything Korra related at the Nick Booth. The only thing available for purchase were stuffed toys that they had the previous two years running. Heck...even the turtle stuff was still available long after the Korra stuff had run out.

At any rate, here have an article:

You used to be able to watch 'Legend Of Korra' season 3 episodes online, on your TV or anywhere else you so pleased. But Nickelodeon has officially given 'Korra' the axe. But instead being chopped down by said axe, 'Legend Of Korra' was gently nudged to online-only options.That is a curse and a blessing. A curse because cable subscribers without fancy set-top boxes will likely have to watch on their tiny laptop screens. Though, a blessing because watching 'Korra' online doesn't require you be in front of your TV at a certain time and there are more ways than ever to get internet content onto the biggest screen in your house. Nick TV may be giving the 'Avatar' series the cold shoulder, but various sites are welcoming 'Korra' with open arms with new episodes appearing each week.

I just hope they don't take down the episodes from other places that I can actually watch them on.

Nick official website is difficult to watch on for me. So are all the other places that cost money, not every person can afford that right now

Just when the show was starting to get good. I really looking forward to the final fights.

I wonder what's in store for in book four? Course more of the Fire Nation now, more of Zuko? His daughter?

I'm sounding like a broken record every week but DAMN, that was an amazing episode!

No Spoilers but Zaheer's intentions and the Red Lotus organization reminds me a lot of the anarchist movement which fits perfectly with the show's 1920 setting!

It just p*sses me off that they aren't going to show the rest of the season on TV. I can't watch it online unless I want my Internet minutes to get compromised, and I'm not doing that for a TV show. No way. Just screw it. I'm done.

Sorry to hear that, Bubbly.

Anyway about the new episode:

Spoiler:
Man oh man, was it good! I still can't believe Zaheer just straight up killed the Earth Queen just by air bending the air right out of her body! That is dark! And we got to see Zuko again, awesome!

Just when you thought bloodbending was a dark way of utilizing bending...

Whoa. Now that's dark for sure. Not to say I'm sad about it as I didn't like that particular character anyway.

Oh man, I loved the part when Bolin guessed facts about the villains.

If anyone of you are reading the comics, and have read the Rift part 2, do you think that
Spoiler:
General Old Iron's eye on his forehead has something to do with those third eye fire benders? Seems so far that he has no relation to any firebender whatsoever, but still there is the eye that looks a lot like their tattoo or whatever it is.

So stop me if I'm missing anything here but so far we had:

- Double Murder/Suicide between two brothers
- Criminal with intent to snap Aang's neck with Bloodbending
- Multiple Terrorist attacks
- Armless Waterbender who had her arms ripped off in childhood

And now Zaheer suffocating the Earth Queen to death! How is this show on Nickelodeon again?

It hasn't been mentioned in the show yet but the creators said the idea for her character came from a very gruesome concept! They didn't discuss it but said it was an accident from when she was younger.

Yeah I just noticed this one!!!!!!
I think this show is actually a little Dark to be on Nick, it would be perfect for Toonami on Cartoon Network, but damn. I can see why this season is not on Saturday mornings!!!!!!!!

Another good episode none the less!!!!!
