I'm having a heart attack here, so stroked the sequel to A:TLA is here.

Who else is excited?

[Zelgrath]

Full length trailer

I think it's new.

Yes, I've been waiting a while for this series.

[Renasko]

Aang frustrated the life out of me in 'Last Airbender'. Hope this girl is a little more kickass.

Looking forward to it.

The old water tribe lady with the hair loopys looked A LOT like Katara.

Very excited. My daughter and I LOVE the original series.

There is no doubt it my mind that is Katara; though i heard the rest of the GAang have passed away by now.

I want to be really excited, really i do - but the more i see the more worried i become; maybe it just my overly cynical nature but it just doesn't look as polished as the original.

Eh? The original didn't have the smoothest animations or art style, either. It wins on telling a great story, and staying true to the characters. Either way, I think the products have done a great job with their first series, and we owe them at least an open mind to try out the second series.

Question: Which channels will carry this in the U.S.? Is it still going on Nick?


ETA

Answered my own question. Yes, it's on Nick, and not Nick2.

It'd make sense if the old lady was a relative of the main character, as she looks very like Katara anyway.

[polishgenius]

Least we know there'll be something good on telly this April, eh.

[felice]

I actually squealed out loud at this news. I guess I must have been looking forward to it... April is going to be a good month.

[Galactus]

My body is not ready!

[The Imp's Advocate]

Yes, the old woman is Katara.

We don't know whether any other characters from the previous show are coming back, but Dante Basco (voice of Zuko) is voicing an unknown character in Korra.

Here's the WSJ trailer (it was in the first article, but it's not the linked trailer several posts above):

My body is in no way, shape, or form ready for this. But it'll be incredible

[Sci-2]

My little...er....adopted....er.....Oh, fuck it. I'm an old man and I can't fucking wait for this show!

[TrueMetis]

Hope my personal canon doesn't conflict with this show to much. Still going to enjoy though I'm sure.

[DivisionByZero]

The only thing that's worried me so far is the overly childish narrative voice-over in the trailers.  Luckily, the scenes I've seen so far all look good and fit with what we know and love about Avatar, but those voice-overs are annoying.

Although... maybe it's just bothering me because it's pointing out that this is a kid's show and I'm an adult and I'm getting way too excited about it...

[Calibandar]

So 12 episodes for season 1, and then 14 more for the second season, but I don't know when that second season will air. And for the first season I don't know how many episodes they show per week. Maybe just one?

12 episodes is pretty brief considering the length of these episodes.

[malek]

So, Game Of Thrones, Doctor Who, and this all starting in April Can't wait
