I first saw this show when I was bored. My friend turned on the TV and shouted "Avatar's on!" Her brother raced downstairs, my brother ran in, and we watched the entire episode of the King of Omashu with the others explaining it to me as we went along.

I'm not much of a cartoon fan. I'm not even much of a TV fan. I thought I'd watch that one episode, and be done with it, and never watch Avatar again.

I was wrong.

From the first, Avatar blew me away. This is one of three shows I have ever seen that has both humor and drama down to a point. It is also the only show that has this down so well that I have yet to see an episode that I disliked enough not to watch it over and over and over...

Every one of the characters seemed real. So real I can see the people around me in them all the time. It was amazing.

Don't think this is a kid's show. Yes, it's appropriate for kids. But if you give it a chance, adults, teenagers, and kids alike will be swept up in the plot, sucked in by the animation, and kidnapped from your preconceptions of the show by the characters within a few episodes.

When I first saw Avatar, I couldn't believe it. I had actually found a TV show that was still running that I LIKED! Good job, Avatar creators. Keep it up!
