    #1, make it far in the future

    #2, keep with the theme of an epic unbalance in the world that needs to be resolved, but with a different nation and a different way that the avatar hasn't been able to keep balance

    #3, connect it indirectly with the first avatar series. perhaps the imbalance had its origins with a feeling of hatred towards the firenation for what it had done. this way, you open it up for an appearance by... you guessed it... Aang! it would make perfect sense, Aang could be the new Roku... and that way this series could close up all the loose ends of the original in a way that made sense to the new plot... ie, the new avatar must understand what happened after the end of the firenation war if he (or she, I suppose, but I don't know if I could get into a series with a female avatar, it'd probably be annoying to me) wishes to save the world this timearound

    #5, definitely continue with the coming of age theme and somehow force the avatar to take on his responsibilities too early in life and keep with all that angst... and definitely continue with a conflicted bad guy charecter that must change to bring balance to the world

    #6, keep it simple, please. leave the bending to the four elements and don't start introducing new powers or something. it would absolutely ruin the series... they've pushed the limit in this series with the bending of a person's energies, but it didn't cross the line. it's a very easy line to cross over, though, and I'd definitely fear they could end up doing it and if they did, avatar would no longer be distinct from series like dragonball or pokemon; always twistin up something new and exciting at the expense of the original concept.

    Say, that's not such a bad idea. But a female avatar would only be annoying if she was a screamer, but say if she was like Toph or someone really tough I think it'd be okay.

    ya...i agree....a toph like water bender (not blind...just attitude) would be so cool....but idk.....ive come up with some ideas like if the next avatar was Aang's grandchild (of course the new avatar would never meet Aang...only in the spirit world or through meditation or watever (in Sozin's Comet when Aang talks to all the past avatars)...ya....but i'd prefer a boy avatar....it would loose veiwers probably for some reason

    What i think might be good of a story for a new season...you know how zuko goes to his father at the end of sozins comet and ask where is his mother....well they should make a new season of zuko getting aangs help to find her... i think it will be pretty cool but the story cant go out that long until they find her otherwise it wont be that good.

    I really want to know more about Avatar Kyoshi. You know her life? It maybe a series or just a two hour movie ep. It's really interesting to see a female Avatar, and how she's chosen to be the Avatar. BTW How do earth kingdom people choose the Avatar? I mean do they have monks or sages or wahtever to reveal the Avatar? Not to mention the size of the Earth Kingdom seems so large that it's almost impossible to find the chosen one. If indeed the new show (in the near future) which revolves around Kyoshi, these stupid questions of mine would be answered.

    I myself would like to see the benders start an all out war with the non-benders in a feeling of superiority,while the non-benders retaliate using deadly chemical weapons.It would then be up to the new Avatar to end the war by leading a small third party in total world domination to force a truce between the two armies.It could start the idea that the Avatar should be the leader of the world,allowing him/her to go insane and be killed,starting ultimate chaos.This could set the stage for a third series.

    I think the series could have a spinoff that could start off right underneath(Or in) Iroh's tea shop right after "The End" credits. It could start anywhere, but it should be about the reconstruction period after the war. New characters trying to cope with waves of crime, lost family members from the war, trying to find loved ones that went off to war against the Fire Nation, or ones who were taken away in raids.

    There's plenty of A material right there.

    I like this idea. Ba Sing Se would be like Gotham City and Aang could be a Batman-esque hero with Azula escaping from the mental health facility (Arkham) and playing the Joker.
