I do like how Korra is a different person than Aang, since it wouldn't have worked if she was as calm and peaceful like he was (to an extent). After all, she may be the new avatar, but she naturally wouldn't be just like the past ones. Sure, Korra can be a really rude jerk, but I find it interesting about her. She isn't a "the-Smurfette/damsel-in-distress that partially exists to fall in love with male lead" type of character, which is what worries me about some female leads in shows. (Kinda hard to explain, I guess).

I LOVED the first series but Korra isn't bad. It was the characters like Sokka and Uncle Iroh that I loved and they are obviously not in the new series.
People it is not cancelled! None of you seem to be grasping that and just so you know there will be a book four.
Looks like TMNT will be the only thing I watch on Nick now. At least going by what one of the show creators said earlier today, LoK isn't cancelled ( IIRC season 4 was announced some weeks back?) but it's still a shame that this all happened.
It’s a part of this huge sea change in the whole industry. We’re seeing digital streaming doing their own content and doing their own thing. Things have changed just for us from when we did Avatar. When Book One of Korra came out, its online presence was insane. Not only the chatter, but the actual numbers in terms of digital downloads and streaming–it’s just been huge. By the time we got to Book Two, the numbers of digital streaming, they greatly outweighed what happened on the channel. Nickelodeon has had a hard time to fit it into their programming. The Book Two finale had insane numbers when it streamed online–it was the biggest number they had all year. It’s just part of this shift. It definitely caught us by surprise. The important thing is the show is NOT cancelled!
To close out the panel, they gave one last sneak peek and lamented that “this will probably be the last big Korra panel” according to Konietzko.
