    If this isn't cruel and unusual punishment, i don't know what is. Why punish such a beautiful series? Answer me that Nick!!

    At least we know how amazing of a show this is, it's everyone else that is missing out.


    AvatarSensation hereby bows to you.
    It's not a cruel and unusual punishment. It's a cruel and unusual LIFE-SUCKING TORTURE!!!!

    But what is cruel and unusual punishment exactly? Is it something that we as civilians wouldn't want or is it something that politicians don't wish to recieve? It's all a matter of perspective since that is what the Constitution stands for: interpretation of what it is.

    And that's some food for thought.

    And you know what's even sadder for dedicated fans (like me)?

    This is the LAST Avatar hiatus we'll EVER get.


    That's not so bad. We can all buy the DVDs to watch for years to come. It's been a long journey and our pain will finally be over. Avatar will live on in our hearts forever. Lets end it on a high note.

    this is vey true. casual viewers (especially ones who dont want to buy the dvds or they dont have acess to veoh or something like that) can easily loose track of avatar nowadays. but thats what youtube is for

    hahaha....i thought that was funny.

    and i only remember the 8th amendment because i had a test on it today. (yay for getting a 100 on a final!)

    But seriously, it saddens me that people are failing to realize what a great show this is. Yet i'm happy that i'm still here. *conflicting feelings*

    The problem is though that someone like the reviewer isn't into the show enough to snoop the episodes out online. It's the casual viewers who aren't watching, and they make up the bulk of the ratings, which isn't good news.

    I'm sure Nick would pull out a crazy amount of Ads for the final episodes. they can't be that dumb to let an opportunity like this pass by.

    More than likely they will awaken the avatar-deprived children of the world to tune in.

    That I'm sure of, I've no doubt there will be marathons, adverts and countdowns, but the point is, why leave it until the series finale to start caring?

    the show was great at first but...

    Ok i liked this show a lot not so long ago but it was gone to long when it came back i was all..."...uhh...what happen last time why dose ang have hair?why are they in the middle of fire nation?"so i was all confesed in when i tryed to under stand it i got all confesed - _ - i like this show but it's like it was gone for two years...Or was it...?anyway if it wasnt gone for so long i would of liked it but i do like the old episodes because i know them anyway(agian) it's cool but not great

    The saddest part about the hiatus, casual viewers are completely turned off the show. If it wasn't for more dedicated fans like us the show would've probably died by now.

    Discuss.

    this is vey true. casual viewers (especially ones who dont want to buy the dvds or they dont have acess to veoh or something like that) can easily loose track of avatar nowadays. but thats what youtube is for

    The problem is though that someone like the reviewer isn't into the show enough to snoop the episodes out online. It's the casual viewers who aren't watching, and they make up the bulk of the ratings, which isn't good news.
    Wow, you're right. The people that barely watch tv, watch tv the most, and drive most of the ratings!

    thats why nick needs more ads for avatar. to alert people to incoming episodes

    The problem is that nick is so obsessed with spongebob and fairlyoddparents because they were so successful that they totally neglect Avatar even if it's probably the best show that nick will ever have.
