Why is Spongebob on.

Fuckers said 8.

I won't be coming back to this thread until I see it (Pacific time)

Edit: My girlfriend is obviously smarter than me, reminding me to check Nickelodeon rather than Nick Toons.

I am a failure.

Aang and Katara both deal with some pretty heavy shit. Things seem to be going well for Zuko, but oh wait, Azula is an even bigger bitch than we thought. The only grievance was a lack of Sokka and Iroh...kind of a cop out on the Earth King, too.

Why the hell do they have to show this show on nick? It would be a billion times better on any other channel.

Because none of the other cartoon shows picked it up because American-made cartoons in the Japanese style of artwork either fail miserably or have to be geared for very young children/people who act like young children.

Nick was the only one willing to take the gamble.

The show is quite expensive to produce. Most channels aren't going to spend that much cash on an animated show. It's actually less costly to license anime, which is more likely to bring in viewers.

What's wrong with Nick anyway?

I would say Spongebob. And their non-animated crap shows. But they also have Fairly Oddparents, so I guess that redeems some of it.

The shows aren't crap, they just aren't tailored towards adults. I know that I used to really enjoy those "crap shows" when I was like 10 years old. I tried watching them again for shits and giggles, though, and they seemed empty.

It's because I grew up.

All Nick is doing is tailoring its programming to its audience.

Stalwart Steve painfully thought these words up:
Oh? Is that how they do it?

I don't know, people seemed stumped as to why the television on Nick wasn't of higher quality!

I think to break their trope of "Azula knows everything" they need to have her try to guess something mischevious that Zuko is doing and fail

I sort of wanted them to not take the easy way out, to have the villagers drive out the gang, to have the factory be a vital part of the economy or something. It would have been better than the Captain Planet ending.

If this keeps up, Book 4 is likely going to deal with a failure to take out the Fire Lord during the eclipse when he should have been weakest, because all of their efforts got screwed up by delays.

But Katara was pretty hot in the Painted Lady outfit.

I'm willing to believe it, since the Fire Nation are all mechanical and shit, but I would find it easier to swallow if they showed some manner of how they work.
