The Live Action Avatar is a terrible adaptation of the original show. But that didn't stop it from being a good show.

Netflix has given us yet another live action adaptation of a beloved animated property. This time bringing new life to the 2005 Nickelodeon classic, Avatar The Last Airbender.

Like many people online, I had a good number of issues with the way the story of Aang, Katara, Sokka, and Zuko was adapted. The Netflix Avatar show missing key themes and characterizations that made the original what it was.

While some good has come of the new take, there's very little to defend the existence of this show. It doesn't feel necessary, and yet, I left season one already anticipating the next leg of the journey. And excited to see how they adapt new events and characters.

Avatar The Last Airbender's Live Action counterpart has a good deal of ups and downs. Some segments being handled extraordinarily well, and others missing the mark. It's a show that was hard to call strictly good or bad. It's a terrible adaptation of the original show's heart, but still manages something worthwhile.

I felt pretty adverse in my avatar the last airbender netflix reaction.

So let's take a deeper look into Netflix's Avatar show. And see how this new adaptation manages to completely fail the original, all while still somehow making something of itself.
