Avatar returns to Nick: Monday July 14th

[Zenjamin]

check it out.

(below the map)



things of note:
everything through TBR pt2 will be on DVD (and likely iTunes) on may 6th. two weeks from today.
it is airing on a monday. and if the finale will be done before the end of july as M&B said, they will not have week long intermissions.







Discuss.







UPDATE:
/sigh.
Nick took down the air date.
does that mean they changed their mind?


it seems like every action they take that affects the fandom is like an electric shock administered to guinea pigs by sadistic scientists.

Huh so the show will start up on July 14th and end before July 29th. Wow that's like less than 2 weeks to air about 10 episodes. Why do I get the feeling that Nick going to pull a Justice League and have multiple mini-marathons of new episodes and once the show has finished airing those episodes that's the last we'll see the show on Nick.

...Well, at least it isn't July 7th (or the two weeks before that). I'll be out of town.

And don't get your hopes up too high. It can still change.

Skepticism, skepticism, skeeeepppptttiiccciiiiiisssmmm...XD

Don't forget the Book version of the four episode finale comes out May 20th. So we'll know how it ends before "The Western Air Temple" airs on Nick.

Hmmm...

DO. NOT. WANT.

So basically, Nick is condensing the series down to the latest time possible, in the shortest time possible.

All right before San Diego Comic Con. How VERY interesting.

Ho
Lee
Poop

they havent moved the book date back yet? I suppose that maes sense and it in keeping with what they are trying to do with the DVD's squeexing every last drop out of the fans as possible.

but this is different. for me, it makes no difference weather I am spoiled by the show on nick, DVD, or torrent.
but now I have to choose between spoiling myself with a crappy chapter book written for 7th graders, or cutting myself off colpetely from the fandom for over two months.

because you know that the finale is going to be so epic, you can tell the mood of it by the fan's reactions... its just something you cant put spoiler tags around, it WILL leak through.

Frack you nick.
Frack you in both nostrils.

O. Thanks, allot for the karma
thats the first time ive been above a 10% post/karma ratio in a long time.


sorry to bring down the mood.
I suppose any avataar news should be considered good news... its just that book...
seems a big slap in the face to the fans, for a minor profit.

O well, to quote M&B:
"There are things that we control and things we don't. That's all I can say."

[legends]

Yep, I've actually decided that I'm going to stay away from all the boards once this book is released until the actual episodes are available. So ya'll can expect me to disappear for awhile after May 20th, and I hate it.

Sadly I'm getting this feeling too. Come one nick Avatars a freaking cash cow and you would you know get viewers if you treated like the top rated show it is. God I don't understand their mentality at all when if comes to avatar. I mean did they not see the packed panels at cons and all the excitement come on and capitalize on how hardcore the fandom is and get some viewers. Why doesn't nick air 2 eps a month and hype them like crazy and like wow I don't know have awesome ratings? Nick I hope you know your throwing away your huge chance at ratings here.

*pulls hair out in frustration and confusion.*

At last! A definite air date! Thanks for the info, Zen.

The fact that I'm getting the episodes two months early via the DVD makes me feel quite validated in my purchase. =)

So true! Same here!

[uverworldluv]

The rest of the episodes from July 14th to July 29th? That seems a little rushed, doesn't it? Don't get me wrong, I love not having to wait 2-3 weeks (months in some cases) for a new episode, but that means they'll have to show a new ep practically everyday. I think that's just too scrunched together. I liked having some time to contemplate what was going to happen in the next episode. It gave me something to look forward to every week. Now the series will be over before we know it.

[legends]

It's just like when the UK got 1-9 in one week. Only it will be the end...

[Ayse]

Finally we have an air date!

.....BAWWWWW.

It's frustrating to me that they're dragging this out like a child that's gonna be forced to summer camp.

I know it's gonna be worth it, but darn. At least we'll be able to watch The Boiling Rock in May.

(keepyourfingerscrossedforleakedepisodes!)- I mean, what?
