Story Background 

In a lost age, the world is divided into four nations: the Water Tribes, the Earth Kingdom, the Fire Nation, and the Air Nomads. Within each nation, there is a remarkable order of men and women called the "benders" who can learn to harness their inborn talent and manipulate their native element. Bending is a powerful form combining martial art and elemental magic.In each generation, only one bender is solely capable of controlling all four elements. That bender is the Avatar. The Avatar is the spirit of the world manifests in human form. When the Avatar dies, it reincarnates into the next nation in the cycle. Starting with the mastery of his or her native element, the Avatar learns to bend all four elements. Throughout the ages, the countless incarnations of the Avatar have served to keep the four nations in harmony. (read more)

See what you've been missing

What's your favorite Avatar episode? 

joubess

My favorite is the series finale, Sozan's Comet, a 4-part episode presented back-to-back for 2 hours. The first half hour is "The Phoenix King", part 2 is "The Old Masters", part 3 is "Into the Inferno" and part 4 is "Avatar Aang". Fabulous ending, but I hope there is a 4th book, Air. There are unanswered questions that we all want answered, where is Zuko's mother, do Aang and Katara and Sokka and Suki get married, do May and Zuko get married, what happened to Azula after she went crazy? There are others.

Do you all think there will be a fourth book, Air?

My favorite is in book 3, The Beach. I like that it gave the "bad guys" a human side. It made it harder to hate the Fire Nation kids. Another good one is The Firebending Master. (Book 3, chapter 14)

I really liked The Northern Air Temple because I really like Teo and his character. Teo is so cool.

WC1989

It was truly awesome with its awesomey awesomeness! I recorded it (so I got to skip commericials, though there weren't that many compared to usual) and I plan to watch it again and again and again until I get get over its awesomeness -if that's ever possible.

Though I'm not quite looking forward to the next series as it will have a new main character.
This is a quote from wiki:
"The final four episodes will be packaged as a two-hour movie. Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko have also confirmed that a new series of Avatar, focusing on another incarnation of the character, is in the process of being made"

I hope the live action films won't..you know..suck.
