The original "Avatar: The Last Airbender" is one of the most beloved animated series of all time . Thus, when Netflix decided to enter the live-action "Last Airbender" game after a horrendously bad first attempt by M. Night Shyamalan, skepticism was high.

Sure, the first season is faithful to the plot of the animated show, but as our own Jeremy Mathai put it in his review of season 1 , it still feels like it's trying to "fit a round peg into a square hole" — forcing an inherently animated story into a bland, realistic world.
