    sorry wise lad, but in the words of Avatar roku.... I'ts Over! and by that I mean for nick. I give sponge bob 2008 as its final year on top of the mountain. because frankly they are done, Its mindless and sooner or later something bigger than that gay sponge will emerge, but back to Avatar, its apperantly clear that nick hates Avatar and its fans, and have no respect for us. but say what the hey! the worse case would be that we all buy the dam dvd's to watch the episoes, and Nick can can hide it all they want and keep it under wraps, but the way i see it, it goes down like this they can stash all they want. Eventually somebody is going to leak it thorugh or its going to end up in the internet.

    in the scenario that the DVD 3 will be on sale, but no BR (or rest of season) in TV

    of the people who will or would have watched the second half of ATLA in television

    only 35% would buy the DVD
    about 50% will end up watching online the episodes
    the rest either don't have computers, or they would not care about watching the episodes in the computer

    I'm really losing hope that Avatar will ever return to television. This is just plain ridiculous.

    no! do not give into despair! in the darkest of times, hope is something we give ourselves.

    Eesh....only since you asked.....Ewww.

    ~shakes head from side-to-side~ (eye e eye e eye)

    Wow. I have got to Google things first before asking people here on the forum.

    Oh my lord.

    My ongoing list of things I shouldn't have asked about: "Hentai," "Lolicon," and now "Tea Bagging."

    Argh.


    oh no, there's waaaaay more to add to that list. rule 34, 4 chan (it's so bad they won't let you say it as one word on TV.com), /b/, pedobear.

    and that's just scratching the surface. the internet is very serious business.

    That would make too much sense. Or if they are, they are clearly looking at the wrong forums.
    They might only read Avatar spirit to know what people think of them. From what I've heard (*coughLisacough*), no one dares to speak ill againsteth the great and omniscient Nickelodeon.

    My dish guide says Avatar will air tomorrow at 8:30 but it doesn't say any episode name. Usually when they don't have name it's a mistake or it's replaced with something. But who knows??

    Thing is, you guys all act as if the episodes can't come out on DVD (Sidenote: apparently the DVD will only cost $18 at retail which is pretty damn good) first but it's entirely possible since Nick has done it before with quite a few shows. In fact, Nick released the 2nd half of Spongebob's 4th or 5th season on DVD 6 months before the episodes actually ended up showing (definitely not the type of news you guys wanted to hear I'm betting...). But anyway, at this point, I'd expect that there will be no Avatar through April (although the April highlights don't mean anything since they actually just left out all of Viacom for this time) with an announcement on the show's return date along with an announcement that the episodes will air week after week through the finale at Avatar's appearance at NYCC since it is a pretty big event. It'll probably have a big trailer and I'd guess the date for the show's return will be mid-late May (around the time of Wise's original predictions for the date of the finale). This gives Nick a good month to hype up Avatar's return and put it back into a regular timeslot. Unfortunately, there are a few major problems with this idea. First is that the book is releasing and while it is only a kid's pop-up (or picture book) book, it clearly recaps the show's final battle. But if you really find out how the show's final battle occurs (and it will likely only be covering the battle's events) by reading an Avatar pop-up book meant for a 5 year old, I truly pity you. Next (and more importantly) is that Nick tends not to like to show new episodes of shows during the summer which was one of the reasons Season 3 didn't start until September last year rather than April or May like most people had assumed would happen. But the NYCC event seems very promising for an announcement on the date and since they will be using the event to hype up the finale, I highly doubt they'll wait until Fall 2008 to show the rest of the season. And that's my opinion on the current state of things. This is all for the US by the way, but if I had to bet, I'd guess they'll try to air the episodes on Nick US and YTV on similar schedules if it happens like this.

    let's see

    lot of people will see DVD 3

    than pretty much EVERYONE will see BR at youtube and similar

    thus the ratings will suffer greatly

    advertisers would realize that, so they will pay MUCH LESS to have their ads during broadcasts of Avatar

    it is NOT A SHOW THAT IS SHOWN A LOT(unlike some show of a creature that lives under the sea, and has a squirrel as a friend)

    That's a good point but it really does seem like what will happen at this point. The only other way would be if there was a marathon which seems very unlikely unless the marathon is on the week of April 25th in which case we likely would have seen commercials by now.

    Also, at the time (believe it or not), Spongebob was not being shown often at all.

    the only thing that is certain is that 315 should have aired before May 6th but it seems NICK is officially supe-moronic and won't air 312 till July(maybe in kids on demand)

    IN Canada


    in Canada as they tend to do ONE EPISODE AT A TIME even when it was DOBS



    March 28 311


    April 4 awakening instead of 312


    April 11 302


    April 18 303


    April 25 304


    May 2 305


    May 9 306


    May 16 307


    May 23 308


    May 30 309


    June 6 310


    June 13 311 (end of 3rd showing of episodes while NICK has only shown a repeat of 306)


    June 20 312???


    June 27 313???

    July 4th 314???



    only common sense scenario in the USA left

    (but now we expect NICK to continue being Moronic)



    USA NICK looks like they wont do repeats at all(except at Kids on demand), they will not air 312 until July?


    May 6 release of DVD 3 without BR in TV?


    May 20 release of Simon schuster's book? they would actually have the book LONG before the finale(and 316 and 317) in TV?

    they suppossedly won't air in NICK until July and it says the "conclusion" will be in July 2008

    in here at the nick site they say new episodes July 14th!!

    Monday 7/14 312?

    Tuesday 7/15 313?

    Wed 7/14 BR?

    if in one week 316 and 317 thursday and friday, and finale in Saturday

    or the finale might be the week after

    will put more later on


    "Sozin's Comet: The Final Battle" Book

    preview of the finale? or a recount of the battle episode? if it is a recount, it will be available BEFORE the episode airs it seems, that would be a moronic move; or they might move the release to a later date

    DVD 3 BACK
