I blame nick, the only people who got to see the last 10 episodes were those of us who went online, bought the cds, or lived in england until this week. Not to mention, avatar hadn't been on Nick for like 6 months at least (Nick 3 or 4 had it but that's it).
Avatar in my opinion, and this is counting movies like pulp fiction, gladiator, star wars, lord of the rings... books, has the BEST storyline of any story every written (thanks to season 3). Best animation series of all time hands down. Spongebob is funny, but quality wise avatar is the best animated anything PERIOD, and in my opinion is in the running for the best storytelling ever
