Seriously. Set me up with The Great Divide, as long as the cash is on the other side I'm good.

Heck, might even watch the thing that does not exist in Ba Sing Se...

u/TheIncredibleHork the Emperor is inviting you to lake Laogai.

I think you'd do well to watch that episode for 24h, then you'd know it's "The Earth King has invited you to Lake Laogai"! ;-P

Not sure why everyone is hating on the great divide, but I feel like for one reason or another The Tales of Ba Sing Se would be worse for most people.

Tales has Iroh's story, and that's an emotional hit. After a while either it kills you or you become numb to it. Neither is good.

Divide, it's just meh. Though Rene Auberjonois was in that episode and I love hearing his voice. I miss Odo.

I have a 4yo son and my wife's reason she doesn't want him watching the Great Divide is because the moral of the story seems to be "lying is ok" and while some may be ok with that,, if you give this kid an inch ...

I actually feel like Tales is a good one because of the variety of vignettes in it.

I'd probably choose to watch The Great Divide, actually. Why would I want to ruin an episode I actually like by watching it 60 times?

For sanity you're supposed to pick your least fave episode ie the Great Divide. I don't think it's blasphemy to say watching the same episode ~72 times would make me never watch that episode again for years

Great divide is actually the answer because you will never watch whichever one is picked ever again and lets be real 😂
