Its genuinely good Spoiler
Whilst i will admit it deviates ever so slightly from source material, it helps make the story more logical and far more mature.
By removing the illogical ways Zuko escaped from south water nation after having his ship totalled etc it genuinely makes the show seem more real and helps reach its target audience.
My only complaint is probably the emotions are a bit eh, but the ones who lack expression (Aang, Katara, and the likes) seem like new young actors so it is excusable and overall the show is good.

totally agree! the kids’ acting is a bit flat but i’m willing to forgive it considering their age and the amount of imagination they have to go off of, probably working on very bare-bones sets. i’m only one episode in but pleasantly surprised by the effects and the slight restructuring of the story. i think it’s working well as a love letter to the original series. the magic has been brought to life in a way that i couldn’t have envisioned. i know it didn’t HAVE TO be made, but i’m glad it was!
