I've watched this whole thing twice, once when Mutt was watching it and I'd catch episodes here and there and again from start to finish cause Netflix had the whole thing and why not? I loved it, but I also watch it with less scrutinization that you do :P I let the villains be villains as they wanted, really enjoyed Zuko's oh so obvious personality shift, and was amused by the eventual outcome of the 3 girls. When Sokka gets his sword, that's where he truly changes, and events in season 4 wouldn't be able to go as they do without him. (or was that the end of season 3?) Anyway, great show. What I need to do is see the Korra stuff.
