i actually didnt start watching avatar until the long 9 month wait between season 2 and 3...i saw it at a store (the 2nd volume of the first book) and my mom's boyfriend saw me looking at it (i was just checking it out...not really into it) and he said he'd buy it...and i was like...ya okay..thanks, and so i watched it and i was like, "OHJHGHGFJSFHJR... i love this show!!!!" so then i asked for the complete set of book 1 for christmas and i got it and i was like...I NEED BOOK 2!!!! so then i got the four volumes (which had already been aired before christmas 2006) and then i couldnt wait till the third season...then i became a HUGE fan and was obsessed and it became my life and then on the 20th of July i signed up for tv.com and let my grief out in a very noobish way (if you know what i mean)
