As a 32 year old man, I had given up watching cartoons years ago. I had never even heard of Avatar: The Last Airbender until the previews for the movie began airing. It wasn't until my new girlfriend, a 26 year old with a love for anime and cartoons in general, started watching the show at my house that I reluctantly saw an episode or two.

That was almost a year ago, and now we've got every episode on DVR and watch it almost daily. I never thought I would ever say a cartoon is my favorite show, but here I am taking time to write up a review on IMDb about it. The show is simply a masterpiece. It's everything I hoped LOST would end up being: smart and entertaining, with a well-planned story arc that ends before becoming ridiculous or stale (LOST, to my dismay, fell far, far short).

This is a show that all ages can appreciate and enjoy. The character development is superb, the animation is fantastic and the story is both sound and believable. 10/10 rating and I highly recommend it to anyone.
