If you haven't heard, the marketing blunders were apparently linked to a leak on Nick Mundo, which forced Nickelodeon to release the episodes sooner than scheduled.

I'll be watching, but at this point just to get it over with. The second half of season 2 was quite good, especially the Avatar Wan episodes, but the show as a whole has been pretty disappointing when compared to its predecessor.

Actually, they didn't have plans to release this early.
Nick Mundo released episodes 4-6 in Spanish, thus driving Nick to go ahead with release.
I was aware of it because I liked the Facebook page.
You can watch episodes on gogoanime though.
I'm pretty excited about this season, because, you know...

I don't know what these chumps are talking about, Book 2 was amazing. I can't wait for Book 3. I thought that guy pumping weights in jail was Ozai but then I forgot that he's long dead. That girl with the eye on her head looked like Azula.

Just watched the first 3 episodes and, what the hell happened? Suddenly the writing has improved, Korra isn't an arrogant and obnoxious brat anymore, and most of all the show has finally slowed down and is giving the characters some chance to interact normally instead of just spitting out dialogues that only further the plot. This is what was missing in the first and especially the second season. Everything was too rushed because there too little episodes per season to fit the number of things going on in the show.

I LOVE Season 3 so far. The characters have FINALLY shown a semblance of development, the romance bullshit is out of the way, and the action from the new villains is mindblowing so far.

Plus, the animation/art is simply above 98% of anime

I gotta say I hate that Kai kid though, what an ass!

This got me hyped for the 3rd season, the past seasons didn't please me as much as Legend of Aang.

What is happening is that the creators/writers are trying their BEST to give the audience what they want. After S1, the fanbase DEMANDED 4 books and DEMANDED more romance, so they tried to do that. It wasn't true to the story though, and it showed. A lot of crap happened, and we ended up with a lackluster season. Because of that, after S2, the fanbase demanded more action, maturity, and less romance.

The creators did say they wanted it to be shown that despite Korra being older than Aang, she is an angsty, teenage girl. Now, after the shit went down over the previous seasons, and the ups and downs with Mako, Korra is able to mature. She really has no choice, however, we still see her familiar frustrations, which I like. I'm pretty sure there will be more romance, just not as much drama surrounding it.

Overall, this looks like a promising season. I look forward to seeing more.~

I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. I love that Ba Sing Se, the Dai Li have been revisited because the Earth Kingdom has always been my favorite of the 4 nations. The air ship to me indicates that this season will have a lot more adventure than the first 2 seasons. I'm kind of iffy though about the new villain, I don't think he can live up to Amon , Unalaq and Vaatu.

Not nearly as good as the first, but you could catch up to the 3rd season reading some summaries, watch the original Avatar special, the last 2-4 episodes of the season and calling it a day lol.

not bad, not good.. too much emphasis on the romance between korra and mako.

season 3 on the other hand is up to a great start and may rival ATLA.

I wouldn't have cared had it been ANY other show, but going by LoK's track record, this seemed more like the writers trying to shoehorn another awkward romance plot instead of a crush.

I don't get why they demanded more romance. The love square(?) from season 1 (though not as bad as the love triangle from season 2) wasn't any good to begin with. They could have used that time on Amon and the equalists plot, which like the entire show was rushed and ended too soon.

I'm also starting to like her occasional outbursts of frustration, now that they're in moderation. But I guess she can't be blamed entirely for her personality. Anyone would get angsty if they were held prisoner from childhood by a cult and made to do nothing other than train all day.

People ship in shows that have zero romance, so when they got that bit, they went nuts. Tumblr literally exploded. I do respect the creators and writers for trying to tailor to their audience, but luckily they have learned their lesson and will remain true to the original content from here on out. I would have rather have two awesome seasons like they planned than this.

I do find that Korra is a very realistic Avatar. The people's reactions and lack of respect/trust for her shows a lot. It also shows that even though Aang was a great Avatar, he didn't make everyone happy. It's literally impossible to do, and I think a lot of fans thought he did that when in fact he didn't. The Avatar's the Avatar, but he/she is also human.

Well, she's banished from Republic City, so I highly doubt she'll go back there unless the bad guys did something to threaten the city.
I'm sure Lin has a reason, but yeah she shouldn't have taken it out on Opal. Opal is adorable and a great fit with Bolin.

Well she could still go back to Tenzin's island . I hope Lin's reason is not just jealousy for her half sister and it is something more serious. Opal is really cute and I guess a good match for Bolin but I think the pairing happened too quick.

So far I'm "eh". When I saw Zuko, I nearly creamed in my pants, but they're under using him at this point. I feel like they easily could have had a new or different character in his place. So the most interesting part of the season for me feels like a piece of pointless fan service (at least as of now).

And I hate Kai. That little shit needs to get the beating of a life time.

I'm still trying to see how they explain Toph having 2 kids by 2 different men.
I'm really curious about this backstory now.
I feel like if they don't answer all these questions about the TLA cast then they should have specials for each of the main chars after LoK ends.

Anyway.
Korra's the first metal bending Avatar. That's cool.

So far I'm liking this season far more than both the previous seasons. I liked that they found a way to naturally fit Lin and Suyin's backstory into the story instead of just shoving a flashback scene like it's often done.

And they're actually doing a pretty good job with Bolin x Opal.

It was great to finally see Toph, however brief it was. Now the only one from the Team Avatar left to make an appearance is Soka (I know he's dead, but flashbacks will do too). And yeah, I also want to know how she ended up with 2 daughters from 2 different men. And to top it off, she hasn't, or refuses to even tell Lin and Suyin who their fathers are.

And as much as I liked the 7th episode, the whole time I was waiting for Zaheer and his gang to attack the Metal Clan's city, which never happened. So it felt more like a filler, even though there was quite a bit of character development for Tenzin, Bhumi and Jinora.

Also, was that one airbender's name Otaku?

Yeah, I don't think they'll kill him. Even though there has been a double suicide, attempted suicide (Korra at the end of S1), genocide of an entire race and now a murder, I think killing off Tenzin would still be too dark for LoK, which at the end of the day is a kid's show on Nickelodeon.
