The Verrick payoff was very well done. Mako is really growing as a character but God the fans of the show are so ****ing whiny. In the first series when Asami was so perfect they complained but now that she shows weakness because of all the **** that's piling on her (her father in jail, her father's company on the verge of collapse) everyone starts to get all feminist. Bolin starts acting like a jerk which is a great way of expanding character is being dismissed as "bad writing".

What the hell? Can't anyone watch a 20 minute animated show without reading so much into it? Does it have to be compared to the likes of Game of Thrones or Breaking Bad or whatever the hell the more "discerning fans" think is the gold standard for entertainment? Its bad enough the forums are filled with bratty ATLA fans which are the equivalent of Geewuners in any franchise but this ridiculous White Knighting and psychoanalyzing of a show which is meant to introduce or younger generations to a slightly more deeper style of story-telling is just getting too much. If everything is "cliche" or if watching a show primarily to ****ing CALL IT is their idea of entertainment, why bother watching....ANYTHING?!

Gah. Rant over.
