    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

    Haha! I agree that it's a kids show and all, but I agree with bandage2 as well. Imagine this storyline in an adult show, it might've gotten twice the succes which Battlestar Galactica has received. Being a kids show sucks sometimes, I guess... I do believe that the finale we've just seen deserves to be nominated, but they should WIN this time, and not lose like happened with the last nomination they got with City of Walls and Secrets. I really have faith in this, since this finale has been waaaay better than any episode before of ATLA! They were truely holding the best for the last.

    Avatar is indeed very good, but the one problem is nick. since new episodes didnt really air this year before the emmy's it didnt get a nomination. and although ATLA is a great show you have to remember that the fan base was dwindling this year before the Countdown to the Comet because there werent new episodes
