It's honestly up there with Lost and Naruto as the best show for character development. Really pushed the boundaries, especially as a kids show. Who'd of thought 26 year old me, would be able to, not so much relate (Cause that's impossible), but find such deep connections to these kids. Even my dad watched this with me, and he hates the things I like.
As an aside, I was at HMV, maybe 12 years ago, and they had the limited edition of book 1 that they made for the movie. It was like 50 bucks. I never really watched Air Bender before so I didn't know how good it was. I asked the clerk if it was worth it. He paused for a bit, hands it back to me and said "It's worth it". I didn't listen to him. When I finished watching the show I remembered the conversation. He was right.
