I'm not sure if I can agree to this.

I think they really done Bumi bad. He's a bitter old man that has to be reminded of friendship and the values he himself stood for a hundred years ago. In the animated series, he's a child with a playful heart that disguises as an old man.

Sokka and his learning is an important part of the series, but they made him a romantic comic relief ... kind of.

Toph is witty and sharp and a great example of what makes earth-bending different from water-bending for example, but it just seems to be missing in the new series. She's okish, but not nearly as great as she should be.

Katara tries water bending twice, Aang tells her a story, Jet tells another one and then she has figured it out, goes to the North Pole and is declared a master. What?

Azula is scary crazy in the animated series, but she's just meh and evil.

Mai an Ty Lee are such great characters and all that they left them was acupressure and throwing knives. Mai was goth and had dominatrix vibes. All gone. Try Lee was like a joyful, poisonous flower whirling. Gone as well.

The only character I really enjoyed was Zuko.

But where is the Dragon of the West's gluttony? Where's his simple joy of life? I think I missed him the most. What they gave us wasn't even close.

Edit: I'm realizing I'm a little mad 🙄😂
