All I can say is, thank gawd for Tivo. I'm going to record all the episodes after Boiling Rock and watch it together. Like a giant movie event.
But the scheduling is really weird. And why are they putting it in the summer? People go out of town in the summers. -.-
Besides, I'm going to buy the dvd that has The Boiling Rock. So none of it will be illegal! I'm so proud of myself. XDD

yes, I agree that this fandom are primarily seen as guinea pigs.
everything seems done to try to gauge who are fans, and who are casual viewers. how much money they get from raitings, and how much money they can get from external means. and how they can exploit this information in movie negotiations.

I call this a bad move on Nick's part but there isn't really much we can do about it. -__-; Whatever happened to the new episode on Friday nights thing? I mean, July. I can understand the point of it being a summer month up here in the northern hemisphere and generally, everyone would be off on holiday. Many kids would still be in school in June and some kids would start school in August so they pick the month where they don't expect viewers to be in an educational institution. (Except all ye summer school and SAT students...) Buuuut, still... Squishing everything into the last few weeks of July right after the US holiday of July 4th weekend,.. I don't know... That really feels rushed as what happened with UK Nick. New episode after new episode non-stop for a week. No anticipation needed because all of that anticipation was built up for all these past few months that no new episode has aired.

But if people must have them they should go to the bookstore, look at the book and put it back on the shelf without buying it. I'm totally planning to do that. ;D There's only one thing I want to know about, anyway.

Well, I was on Nick's Avatar website just a few minutes ago, and the banner that read, "New episodes of Avatar resume July 14th," only yesterday now reads "Watch Avatar only on Nickelodeon." Hopefully this is just some fluke thing and my computer is utterly broken. =(

WRY, NICK?! WRY?!
What a terrible and anticlimactic ending to one of your greatest shows EVER.
Great job. *sits in emo corner*

Oh this is just great.
We get all the episodes in like 2 weeks, then it's over. We have to wait still few months. And if nick keeps up it's rein of sadnes to avatards, they air the spacails seperate.
Great

The last new episode was on November 30th, DOBS, let's see, we are waiting almost the same time for the new episode as about the same amount of time we were waiting for season 3's debeut. Just about 8 months or so.
Hopefully they don't push it that far, they're making us wait for episodes that are already made and aired in other countries more time than what we waited for season 2, unvelieveable!

BUt when you wait week after week, and get mad at nick, it flies by. But hopefully nick won't go back on thier word, who knows, they've done it a thousand times before but hopefully we can get the new episodes as scheduled.

So Nick gave us a date of July 14th, and the NYCC trailer said that Avatar would conclude in July 2008. Now that Nick has removed the July 14th from their website, I'm thinking that they're going to move it forward (assuming that the NYCC trailer's promise still holds). I can only hope for a schedule like this:
06/20: 312 06/27: 313 07/04: 314/315 07/11: 316 07/18: 317 07/25: 318-321
Please please please please please please please...

That would be a good schedule, but one thing is, I thought it was all going to end on July 29th? And the season finale is going to be three episodes long, wow, cool!
