Twenty One Pilots: Stressed Out Music Video
surprised no one said it yet but Toph in the play is actually the original design toph was meant to have before they changed, and im so glad they did. we got one of the best characters from it!
I'd like to point out aang is 12, and katara is 16 yet he is incredibly pushy.
Katara was 14, not 16
Aang is 12 and katara is 14 throughout the show. that age gap would be insane
Zuko, motherfucker, Aang would be still sitting right next to you if you let him sit right next to Katara. You may be one of the best characters ever written but you're the worst wingman.
Speaking of solid British comedy shows at the end there, the show BBC Ghosts is five seasons (7 eps each) and it's so so good. It's about a woman who can see ghosts living in an extremely old house full of ghosts from different eras and backgrounds. It's super funny and heartfelt and I think you guys would enjoy it! Plus it's a fairly short watch
There's an American sitcom with the same premise also called Ghosts.
The discussion you guys had at the end about how this show feels planned throughout and is a product of a different era is accurate. Mind you, as you go into Korra, that show was made in the more current media environment, and some of the bumpier elements stem from that (nickelodeon actually fucked with production quite a bit). That being said, it's still an awesome show and season 3 in particular had the show runners pulling off a mastery of tv akin to the original series. I'm really looking forward to you guys' reaction to it! And once you're done, since Boom likes reading, the avatar Kyoshi and avatar Yangchen books are amazing, highly recommend
A few fun facts about this episode:
This episode was the final episode prior to the finale airing all four parts. It was part of a weeklong event called Countdown to the Comet where the last six (brand-new at the time) episodes (starting with "The Western Air Temple") aired, one per night. (Multi-part episodes like "The Boiling Rock" aired all parts on the same night.) The next episode, the four-part finale, aired the following night as a 2-hour TV movie.
The poster Sokka shows the group is based on the Book 1 DVD boxart, and the play's title is a reference to the title of the premiere episode.
Dante Bosco's (Zuko) older brother Derek voiced Play Zuko. Jennie Kwan (Suki) voiced Play Yue.
The scene where Play Katara and Play Zuko are imprisoned in Ba Sing Se together is a reference to the Zutara shippers in the fanbase.
The last scene of the episode ("That wasn't a good play." ... "But the effects were decent.") may have been a reference by the episode's writers to the upcoming movie, according to the DVD commentary from the show's creators.
You guessed it: Play Sokka saying "let's keep flying" is indeed a reference to the fanbase saying the episode was pointless. Also, the audience falling asleep during "The Drill" is a reference to a vocal part of the fanbase saying the episode was boring.
The fanbase that said the drill was boring must be in the minority, because I've never seen anyone say that and it seems like most people enjoy that episode ?.
It's a good episode but i remember becoming bored of it because it was one of those episodes that they re-ran constantly.
Guys, where is the Ducktales episode for this week? Please, don’t tell me that it’s over.
Am I dreaming or was this stuff not already published for silber? I could have sworn I watched this last week.
they did post them last week, I guess it was a mix up somewhere.
If you think ATLA is dark.... you guys are in for a ride with Korra. I cant wait.
THE PLAY!! Best episode.
I believe the ending was actually poking fun at the live action Avatar the Last Airbender M. Night Shyamalan movie.... "terrible, but the effects were decent".
It's a nice theory, but the timing doesn't work at all. Ember Island Players ran in 2008. While development on the movie began in 2007, they were still in pre-production in 2008 and filming didn't start until 2009. Also, while I've only seen clips of the movie (have never been able to bring myself to actually watch even a reaction to it), in the clips I *have* seen, the effects were anything but decent.
Oh, well maybe it was a fandom meme then?
Oof, my old unreliable memory brain. ?
Best recap episode ever.
I think one of my favorite observations is that Toph cannot feel the performance from her seat, so she has to strain to listen. Part of why she is absolutely THRILLED by her actor shouting loudly is because it’s the most action she’s gotten to experience the whole play!
Best recap episode ever. And I just can not get enough of Toph being the only one to just embrace the ridiculousness have fun.
Is it wrong that I still vibe with the play version of Iroh? Man just wants cake and massages I can respect that.
Finally, my years of pent up Zutara shipping have a moment to pay off!
The reason for the little moment with Zuko, Katara, and Aang, is because during the course of the show the Zuko x Katara ship became OVERWHELMINGLY the most popular ship. By a large margin. So it's kind of a small nod to that community, despite our complete lack of standing at this point in the show lol.
Great video.
Fun fact: the stage actress playing Aang is one of Ty Lee's septuplet sisters
this episode is so amazing and a genius recap but i feel like that katara and aang non-consensual kiss— like it feels so unnecessary and uncomfortable. it’s kinda just forgotten about by the end of the episode because of all their other problems so i don’t get why it was needed :((
It was a common trope of popular shows at the time where the main lead would kiss the romance interest suddenly (and typically it was spun as a good thing and the girl would kiss them back). I wonder if the scene was added because the writers wanted to show what would actually happen if you go around doing that as a lesson for the kiddos.
The people were yawning during the Drill part because the drill was "Boring"
The fanbase that said the drill was boring must be in the minority, because I've never seen anyone say that and it seems like most people enjoy that episode ?.
cj my brother in christ
Holy fuck that’s actually clever lmao
I was going to save this for the finale, but then Boom brought up "shows not being designed to end." I feel this is useful information to have going in to Korra.
Originally, Legend of Korra was not supposed to be a "sequel series." It was purely an epilogue. Michael and Bryan got greenlit for 1 season to tell a short story of the next Avatar as an epilogue to Avatar. However, after the 2nd or 3rd episode, Nickelodeon came back and said, "Show's doing really well, we're greenlighting you for 3 more seasons." From there, Michael and Bryan had to write 3 whole seasons to continue a show that basically ended. Season 2 premiered a year later and...people have criticisms, but when you take this into account, the flaws are understandable. There's a lot more jerking around Nickelodeon did to the show, but I'll share those stories when we actually get into it (what they did to season 4 should be criminal).
Uh season 4 was dope what are you talking about? Also it is way better than season 2.
Actually, the jerking around with the seasons was worse. Season 2 of Korra was greenlit as the actual final END to Korra, then after Season 2 was doing well (much the same case as with Season 1), Nicklodeon ordered season 3 and 4 together.
Fun fact about this episode.
The actor portraying Zuko in the play is actually voiced by Derek Basco, who is Dante Basco's(Zuko) brother.
This is in my opinion the cleverest way to recap a series that I've ever seen. It covers everything just before the end, pokes fun at itself, is a nice reprieve from all the intensity of the last few episodes, and has an underlying message to the audience about propaganda and how the public's perception can be easily twisted through the lens of blind patriotism. It's brilliant.
This is a great episode about propaganda because u see the way they fill information they dont know or spin what happened.
Damn it, only Boom noticed the best part of the episode..... they made fun of The Great Divide! ? That's literally the best joke in the show because the writers were so self aware with the fact that that episode isn't loved and they straight up skipped over it in the play ? Thats perfect comedy that transcends the show.
They got info from a lot of people not just cabbage man
This show came out when I was 5 and I was there to watch the very first episode. Avatar is still my absolute favorite show and I rewatch it often. I feel like it shaped me as a person and has a lot of themes that children can benefit from seeing. My cousin's husband started showing Avatar to their 3 year old recently and she absolutely loves it too. Avatar is for any age!
I was like 10 or 11 when watching this show on Nick and everyone around my age or younger did the same ?.
Boy in the iceberg is better than the last airbender movie
1- Actually they explained that the playwrite asked the different people that Gaang came across to collect source material for the play.
2- Jet is dead. The writers confirmed it later. Of course Nick wasn't going to let them be explicit with it.
dunno if this would be considered a spoiler so I'll just let other people decide first:

the most important thing to remember when yall watch the finale is that the show's full title is the most important thing to consider, i only say that because a lot of people seem to forget that part
Hi guys can you react to over the garden wall? It like 10 episodes so can you react to it all at once? It would be like a movie
I really hope they can fit this in during the fall/later in the summer, it's the perfect time to watch the show and i know they'll love it
Fun fact: Zuko is played by Dante Basco. Actor Zuko is played by Dante's brother.
