Maybe Avatar was always bad? I was just younger at the time the Last Airbender was airing? But no, after a total re-watch of all three seasons, this show is cemented in my mind as one of the best animated shows to come out of the west (with the help of the east) ever!!! The characters are all well realised and, with the exception of the occasional tertiary character, fully three dimensional. This is helped to an enormous degree by the animators, who nail the characterizations with great animation. That's not to say the show is perfect. There are occasional bad plot choices or even entire episodes, but they are easily overlooked as the story is so engaging and fun.
