Otherwise, I love the show. I can't wait to see Aang's other children in action.
I sort of agree, although my problems lie with the Pacing more than the editing. They had less episodes to convey the story, but still at the end they just seemed to rush through the character of Amon and all. It feels like episode 12 (the finale) wasn't the finale to plots layed out from episode 1, just those layed out from episode 10. The original had far more natural pacing, and we care about Aang and his journey to master the elements and defeat the Fire Lord.
Plus the original was a lot darker. Everyone's parents were either dead, away or jerks, the main antagonist committed Genocide , the series dealt with issues that a kid-aimed show typically wouldn't deal with, like death, genocide, military dictatorship, spirituality, love, and awesome flying lemurs.
And now we get a powerful bender from the get-go playing magical dodgeball. It's just not the same.
Well they only had given 12 episodes to Nick to see if it would be good enough for a 2nd season so maybe season 2 will but more episodes (but I've read that it might be 14 this time, lets hope it's more though)

Legend of Korra seems pretty good though I have myself just looking at the environments because they look so nice. The ending of season 1 was mixed for me, but other than that its a great series and hope to see it continue.
I watched the whole series in 3 days because I was getting ready for the movie (not even gonna comment on that movie, I was so disappointed)
