Avatar - A Fantastic Series!

I have become hooked on Avatar, The Last Airbender, an American cartoon series that is starting its fourth season soon on Nickelodeon. It is very well written and voice-acted. It is full with action, adventure, betrayal and redemption. It's funny, it's serious, it is meant for children but is hugely entertaining for we adults as well. It borrows from many different Asian traditions but the result is rather unique too. I highly recommend it!

I'm a Kim Possible fan myself. How is it that we adults get hooked on these things faster than the kids do?

Kim Possible is a lot of fun. Avatar is fun too, but darker and more interesting, I think. Kim Possible never brought tears to my eyes, and the characters are more traditionally one-dimensional. Avatar's characters are complex, just as we humans are. Well worth checking out.

Hmm... I may have to try the game.

I am COUNTING the days until the next installment.
