    Dylan here reporting that Nick has pulled "The Thriller Plan" as predicted by DF member Nico. Nick magazine (top right) says 312, "The Western Air Temple" is confirmed to air Monday July 14th, and "a special 2 hour episode" we can only assume to be the finale will air Saturday July 19th. Here is what we can assume the schedule to be:

    Monday July 14th: 312 - "The Western Air Temple" Tuesday July 15th: 313 - "The Firebending Masters" Wednesday July 16th: 314 and 315: "The Boiling Rock, Part 1" and "The Boiling Rock, Part 2" Thursday July 17th: 316 - "The Southern Raiders" Friday July 18th: 317 - "The Ember Island Players"
    Saturday July 19th: 318-321 - Unconfirmed Series Finale Titles (We will not be releasing them)

    Times for all these episodes are currently unknown.

    So, there you go. The epic conclusion to our favorite TV Show ever crammed into a week. I've probably been the most supportive person in the fandom of Nick, but all I have to say is, shame on you Nick. Avatar deserves better than this on it's last episodes. I didn't know you had lost faith in the show. Thanks so much to earth_lizard from the ASN Forums for the scan!
    Note: At the bottom it says that the dates are subject to change.


    Jake here, and I want to comment on Dylan's above post. If you've followed Nick in the past couple of years the "final episodes in one week" thing is nothing new, it is essentially Nick's sending off of the show, the last harrah. Avatar won't be back on TV with new episodes again, or at least not for a very long time (should they decide to go ahead with those specials) so what good does it do Nick to break the final 10 episodes of Avatar up when half of them have already been seen by a good deal of the fandom? It'll be better for ratings, and a nice send off, for them to do it this way. So it will all be over in a week, that's unfortunate. But this isn't Nick really losing any faith in the show IMO, it's traditional Nick sending off a show which will no longer have any new episodes. You can't "lose faith" in something that doesn't really exist anymore. Nick is done with Avatar (almost) and it's on to Paramount to milk the Avatar movies for all they are worth.

    They could with a spin-off, but that might happen only after the movies.

    One can only pray that they are that smart. I mean if Nick wasn't any kind of idiot they would sell the Avatar rights to CartoonNetwork or something. They would take the series somewhere. Just like they did with DBZ.

    Thanks for the news... It still doesn't pacify my intense rage that Avatar is indeed getting burned off.

    Lets just hope that Nick does something big like they did for iCarly Saves TV (i love the show, but that epi was not what it was cracked up to be). Maybe they are going to have a big Series Finale Event or maybe they are going to pull a Phantom Mania on us. Who knows?

    Was that link for a new avatar magazine? Or just an avatar section of a new nick magazine?

    Thanks for the News!

    I'm not supportive of how Nick has handled Avatar throughout its run. But the one week thing isn't such a bad idea. As long as they advertise it really well. Avatar could go out with a bang and we can get 4, 5 million viewers to rub in Nick's face that Avatar is a great thing and they screwed up with mishandling it for the last 3 years.

    I'm pretty sure it's the finale, it would be so lame if it was a recap. And don't worry the finale DVD is coming out July 29th so you can watch it then.
