Hi, I'm Sal. Master of Aeons. I hate filler episodes more than anything in the world.

Sup.??Anyway yeah I said the same thing awhile back. One good thing about "fillers" (still don't care for the naming of these things) is that we get to see the characters display real (sortof) personality rather than them just simply??responding to an external source of conflict (did not care for the Drill). And??yeah??the Tales were better than most "fillers" I've seen. Course??I??don't think I've seen all that many, ah well. ??Lotta parenthesis there.??..Yeah.

I view Tales of Ba Sing Se like I do the issues of X-Men Unlimited and Spider-Man Unlimited.?? Sometimes, there are stories that help to show the depth of characters or little aspects you don't normally get to see.?? But they aren't stories that can fit well into the main storylines without ruining the flow or just feeling like they were slapped in.?? It's sometimes the little things that actually tell us more about people.?? Like the saying goes, integrity isn't doing the right thing, but doing it when no one is watching.

i like when momo starts dancing in front of the people and they sing the momo theme song in the backround

i think the creators of avatar wanted to have a tribute to mako, but didnt knw how to fit it in, so they did wat they did, and it.. well... lets just say it could have been A LOT worst...lol

Feel free to hate filler episodes all you want, but they are necessary and often give you information important later in the show, although it might not seem evident at the time, and
they also show great character development (In Avatar fillers, at least).

Personally, I'm okay with fillers.

We already know that underneath it all, Toph is still a girl. She's flaked out plenty of times already and shown a little more of herself than she originally wanted. Toph's sideshow - amusing, yet ultimately pointless.

Iroh's story - The entire reason I didn't swear off the show based on this one episode alone. Why didn't they just do a Iroh Alone episode in the same vein as Zuko Alone. Iroh runs through BSS, helps people, finds tea, sings a song, gets into a fight with an expert thief and makes it to his son's funeral on time. If Appa can get the limelight, so can Iroh.

Aang - Boring story, little to worry about, and the sudden inconsistancy of Aang being some kind of Earthbending Master. He didn't even need to touch the ground for that Bend! That's what I call Earthbending!

Sokka - Funny, but mostly a distraction.

Zuko - If Jen doesn't turn out to be some kind of plant for a future episode where she betrays Zuzu, I'm gonna be mad. A lot of the events felt forced and the "magical scene" at the lantern springs was way too convienient.

Momo - Here's a nice thought! Momo misses Appa! Momo does other things, Momo finds a HUGE foot print. Momo misses Appa! I liked the thought, but the whle episode was filler with 3 things you needed to know. Heck, I could have caught up with that on a primer before the finale.

is momo misses his best friend or is he a she or.....................gay.

You bring new meaning to the term "flaming".

Flaming, as a double entendre, means both "to incite discord through slander" and "homosexual to an abnormal degree". Hence, falaming.

I like these kind of fillers as long as they aren't dumb. I don't like traveling adventure where they just jump from point to point. Always cool to see what happens in between big points while they're on the road. Like a book really.
It would be dumb to see them get in Ba Sing Se then just leave the next epi.

I really don't see the thing with Jin.
All I saw was that, the lamps weren't lit at that moment, and Zuko cared enough to risk his identity.
And the fact that those lamps weren't lit at that moment like a strange coincidence, well that kind of stuff always happens with romance stories. Jin turning out to be a spy would to me be a really dumb random twist.

The only thing I think would have improved was that it would be an hr long or increase some of the stories. Cuz I think Iroh's and Zuko's were too short. They would have been great as seperate epi's. An Iroh epi, and another Zuko epi with Iroh in it of course.

How is that a dumb twist? He's the easily recognizable Fire Prince in a kingdom of Earth Benders and slimy politicians. We've already seen Jet try to take him out head on and fail - It's always the woman who really hurts the fighter.

Jet saw them do some bending.

And have you seen in cartoons how 1 thing can hide a person?
Superman with his glasses, Danny Phantom with just greeen eyes and white hair, and Azula didn't recognize Aang til his hat fell off.

And twists can't just be brought in. You make her an assasin from no where makes it looks either exaggerating, boring, or overused. It has to take an approach or w/e. There also has to be a point to it. So another person lies and is an assasin, big woop de doo da.?? He already went through that. Nothing new.

So unless there are some real hints or some kind of approach, and a point to it, it's silly.

Ugh I'm having a tough time with words right now.
