Drink cactus succus . It ’ll quench ya . Nothing is quenchier . It ’s the quenchiest .
It features some expectant character minute as morale is humiliated , and Sokka and his cactus juice have become the subjects of unnumbered meme . For some fan , however , Sokka ’s “ boozing cactus succus . It ’ll allay ya . Nothing is quenchier . It ’s the quenchiest , ” is the best part of the episode .
The Headband
Season 3, Episode 2
The second half of season 3 is the climax of the series . It ’s where all of the grooming pays off for the cardinal characters and where all the conflict comes to a head with Fire Lord Ozai and Princess Azula . That being said , the first half of season 3 meanders through a few dissimilar , mostly filler , episodes . “ The Headband ” is one of those .
The episode does tolerate Aang to have a bit of breather from his obligation and bond with Katara , but it comes properly after a backbreaking installment , making it palpate a little jarring . It also have Aang teaching a bunch of Fire Nation teens how to let free and dance when they ’re prevent from doing so . It ’s veryFootloose , and not a horrible idea , but the placement of the episode is confutative . It might have made for a good early series one .
The Avatar Returns
Season 1, Episode 2
Several early episodes of the show can be considered some of the worstThe Last Airbenderepisodes only because the story was still find its footing . That ’s for certain the case for the first two episode of the show , which do principally to set up the central character .
While the first episode bestow Aang to Katara and Sokka , the second sequence introduces Zuko to the trio . It sets up Zuko as the show ’s initial primary antagonist , and it does that very efficaciously . It is , however , all still a prologue . The show truly gets its beginning once Aang , Sokka , and Katara get to leave the Southern Water Tribe village to start their adventure .
The Cave Of Two Lovers
Season 2, Episode 2
“ The Cave Of Two Lovers ” feature a group of nomads who let the cat out of the bag their stories , Wisconsinite - mole living in the mystic burrow of a mountain , and Aang ’s calf love on Katara being placed front and center . In the episode , the mathematical group of friends gets lost in secluded tunnels , and much of the focus is on the possibility of Aang and Katara ’s feeling being capable to lead them out of the burrow , but it ’s mostly unenviable and ignored in the next batch of episodes .
The Netflix resilient - activity series really improves on this sequence . Instead of make the story about Katara and Aang dancing around their potential flavour for one another , it ’s the transmitted love between Sokka and Katara that allows them to get the Wisconsinite - moles to lead them out . That idea does n’t pull the audience out of the story and has them focusing on the next romance between Aang and Katara .
The first season of Netflix ’s live - actionAvatar : The Last Airbenderis available to stream , and the serial publication has been renewed for season 2 and 3 .

The King Of Omashu
Season 1, Episode 5

In the last , very few fans were likely surprised that the top executive release out to be Aang ’s quondam booster .
Like all of the " worst " episodes of embodiment : The Last Airbender , the episode itself is not horrible . It solve to determine up some of Aang ’s history .
Like all of the " bad " episodes of incarnation : The Last Airbender , the episode itself is not horrible . It work to set up some of Aang ’s history . Like most of the former episodes of the show , however , it feels like a diversion rather of part of the turgid tale .
The Runaway
Season 3, Episode 7
This season three episode does n’t sit down as well with fan just because it recapitulate story beats they ’ve already seen before . Katara and Tophdon’t see eye - to - eye on almost anything , and here , Katara has enough when she take in that Toph ’s scheme and memorize the locals could get them into fuss .
Katara and Toph end the installment closer than ever , but considering all of the soldering they ’ve already done in the past times , it make for a redundant story .
Winter Solstice, Part 1: The Spirit World
Season 1, Episode 7
Only the seventh sequence of the series , this episode pop Aang ’s introduction to the Spirit World , but it does it with a fib that seems like Aang could never win . One of the practiced things about the serial publication is that there ’s always a little bit of Leslie Townes Hope .
Aang spend the installment pretty adamant that he has no idea what ’s going on or what to do , and it takes the majority of the story for him to get answers . For that reason , this episode experience a bit more wandering than most , despite set up a lot of pieces that come into play later in the serial .
Since Netflix announced the show , fans have enquire how Avatar : The Last Airbender ’s live - activity cast feeling liken to their animated counterparts .
The Boy In The IcebergSeason 1, Episode 1
Yes , the very first installment of the serial publication is regard one of the unfit by many fans . look at the episode swear out as mostly set up , it ’s not surprising it would be a low - ranking one . When a serial has more than 60 episode of story , it stands to reason that the very first instalment innovate the primary characters is n’t going to be as great as an episode with a tremendously emotional arc or one that solves a major mystery .
The Northern Air Temple
Season 1, Episode 17
As the first time of year nears its end , Aang makes a journey to one of the Air Nation temples with Sokka and Katara . What he finds there ab initio disgust him , as civilians have made their home in the tabernacle , destroying things Aang receive sacred , but they simply see them as items no longer in use .
Aang spends the episode watch about change , while the people he encounters learn a moral in secret and selection . Like a stack of the early episodes of the series , it sets up a lot of interesting pieces and introduce a caboodle of great characters , but the story does n’t grab the hearing like late episode .
