Legend of Korra

I have a strong feeling that they just want Korra to end. I think that Season 2 wasn't as well received as they expected. That deus ex machina ending was just terrible in my opinion, and it probably pissed off too many people. That's probably why they're rushing through Season 3. Hoping that it's good regardless, and since they already ordered Season 4 we know that we'll get a real ending, so I don't really care how they act about it. Their loss.

As for Episodes 1-3...

 Spoiler

I like the idea of Airbending being reawakened...but the whole Team Avatar is handling it terribly. It's no surprise that the only person they got to join them was someone who was running anyway. The idea that they can turn people from their lives straight into an Air Nomad lifestyle is just the worst thing ever. Do they seriously expect to get anyone that way? The Air Nomad life style will have to be edged back in, they can't just walk up and go, "So, who wants to be an Air Nomad and abandon everything you know and love?" Teach people how to be Airbenders and show them the Air Nomad lifestyle with no expectations, and you might get people to come(or to surrender their children like the old Air Nomad Nation did)...but to pitch it flat out is just asking to be ignored.

Hoping to see more of the spirits too. It seems like the majority of spirit changes are in only Republic City? I hope spirits become central to the story in some way.

Where did Zuko get a dragon? Wasn't it stated in TLA that the two dragons that taught Zuko true Firebending were the last two dragons? That dragon came out of no where and wasn't explained as far as I can tell.

However, that Zuko elevator scene was amazing.

Dai Li always evil...always.

Overall I liked these three episodes. It built up pretty quickly.
