Ok, I get avatar day and the great divide, but the swamp?! Aang’s vision of the flying boar is the only reason they are able to find Toph later, and the skills Aang learns from Huu are great foreshadowing for energy bending, the chakra stuff that guru pathik teaches. It also is the first case of a strange specialized form of bending that paves the way for a bunch of others later. As for the tornado, it’s clear that there is spirit shit going on. Heibai literally was abducting people into a different dimension body and all, and the tornado is what people are mad about? I love this episode, I don’t think it’s filler at all. Saying this is filler is like saying bitter work is filler. It’s just not true.
0:40 it wasnt an actual storm. The swamp was calling out to Aang beacuse it has high spiritual energy. After they verbally decided they are not going into the swamp, it creates the tornado to drag them in, forcing them inside
@@weyrloc8176ya and the show even brings it up again at the end of the episode..it’s supposed to be mysterious to the gang..though to us, we see the vines smacking one of the birds at the end so we know it’s the swamp
9:12 what’s so funny about the great divide is that even in book three, when aang and the gang goes to watch the play, the “actors” says “and here we have the great divide… eh let’s skip it!”
Nah, Kyoshi showing up like "Yeah, I fck'd him up. Anything else you wanna ask me? K then. Bye." Absolutely hilarious! 😂 Great divide is just boring and annoying.
the swamp episode is NOT worthless. 1. it shows insight into who aang’s teacher will be, making him look for said teacher, advancing the story. 2. It shows vine bending is possible (not sure if vine bending was used before this episode tho. 3. It introduces characters who will fight in the day of place sun
also aang learns that everything is connected,we will se that when he was learning about chakras. The crazy swamp guy said more or less the same thing as the guru
Even an episode considered bad from this show has a high ass rating. So all that says about the show is that it's quality deserved to be watched by all the masses.
I don't get why people don't like these episodes. They are easily some of my favorites. Ig some people prefer to see obvious plot progression or whatever, but the episodes where the gaang's just chillin or goofing around are some of the most memorable to me. The great divide has always been one of my favorite episodes (not in the least because I love deserts and canyons and southwest vibes) and I think watching aang alone (besides the guide) on top of the canyon watching over the two tribes is so powerful and foreshadows a lot of the whole 'loneliness in neutrality' themes we see with aang not wanting to kill ozai, other parts of the series, and also in the comics such as fighting with Zuko and a bit Katara in the promise as well as Toph in the rift.
Being boiled in oil wouldn’t do anything to aang as he can just change the temperature of the air around his skin. Like honestly, are the people of that village that stupid?
@@parkernark Well tehnically it was just never stated. Like aang was very much just wearing thin air bender robes in the south pole and im pretty sure when he woke up he didn't even have a shirt on yet he didn't even shiver or comment on the cold. Im pretty sure aang also didn't really get effected by the heat of the desert.
Ive always found the Great Divide episode interesting because its so off brand from the rest of the episodes...story, plot etc. Feels like a 80s Saturday morning cartoon PSA
after watching atla, i tried watching legend of korra since it was related. i pushed myself through the first episode, trying to trust it and thinking, “it’ll get better”. i tried watching the second episode last night but it was literally so hard to watch. i did really try to like it and to get into it, but i just stopped, it was completely hard to watch for me. i guess it was too much of a change.
The only problems with all of the episodes is that the content was probably just boring, I remember almost skipping the swamp ep from how boring it was
I love how Avatar day spends almost it's entire runtime establishing how falling down from that cliff is deadly, and at the end Aang yeets off one of the Rhino Riders without remorse. Never used his powers to take a life my ass.
I actually kinda like the swamp. I think only painted lady and great divide deserve to be called “the worst” and they’re not even bad. Avatar day is always kinda funny to me, it’s a good one
The Painted Lady is the only episode of this show I dislike, and that’s speaks to the quality of the show. It also speaks to the lack of quality in The Painted Lady
3:30 idk bro this episode was kinda good... i mean, the Zuko ending scene was brilliant, the swamp thing was okay. 8.1/10 is the rating it shouldve gotten
Any episode with Zuko in it is automatically a top tier episode for me. Call me the only one who did this or crazy but I actually started watching the show because of him. I really love his Charcter and wished me got to see more of him, his backstory, and scenes.
I was gonna come in and roast you for talking shit about one of the greatest shows to ever exist but I can actually agree with this. You have been spared…
The point of the start scene is that the man had dual swords, and you see Zuko look at him with hate. And later, you see Zuko either stole from that man or killed him, because those are the same swords Zuko (Blue Spirit) has.
Season 1 7,9 the boy in the iceberg part 2 7,8 Imprisoned 7,8 waterbending scroll 7,6 Jet 6,8 the great divide 7,7 fortuneteller 7,7 Bato of the water tribe 7,8 North air temple
The swamp added connection too a later episode Where he had to learn how to unlock his chocolate, they didn't spend too much time on that chocolate point because he's already learned that from this episode, So the swamp episode is important
I don’t think that the swamp and avatar day should be ranked that low I don’t think there that bad but I think that the should ranked in like 6th or 7th
Ok buddy, so youre telling me, that this episode is a filler? Oh heeeell no. Lil bro 😹🙏This episode shows us that plant bending exist, this episode shows us that Toph exist, and finally, this episode shows us that these swamp waterbenders exist, to later place them at the war against the fire nation.
How come you didn't mention the Zuko/Iroh plotline in the Avatar Day episode, it contributed to the plot by showing Zuko deciding to leave Iroh to find his own way which leads into Zuko Alone, thus Avatar Day was not filler. And the Swamp is also not filler as it foreshadows meeting Toph, Aang learns about the Flying Boar which is crucial info in finding where she lives, and it sets up Zuko becoming the Blue Spirit again.
I’m pretty sure the reason of the swamp episode is to introduce the swamp people for the day of black sun. and a new sneak peak of toph who will soon be In they’re group
I think these episodes were rated low because they had more adult themes and it was parents rating the episodes how their kids reacted/ if they want their kid to see that probably. Like the swamp had some scary scenes. The avatar day was about murder. And the great divide is just god awful.
It's incredibly telling that the "worst" episodes on this series are still decently rated as a whole. The amount of quality this show had was unmatched!
For me, this episodes felt like they were kind of a free day to the characters were they weren't thinking of the actual war, it was a rest for them and for the people watching it bc if not it would always be the same
Him seeing Toph is more foreshadowing than anything, but still that isnt exactly the right term. Since we don't know who Toph is, and this doesn't tell us at all, it's not a spolier. It's just a mystery girl.
Swamp is a very important episode first off it shows ang look through the vines which is very important in the legend of Korra and the Swamp is also very important in legend of korra and it shows his bending teacher
I think we all can agree that those episodes are "bad" only in comparison to other episodes of atla. If you compare them to other shows they are interesting, funny / scary and meaningful. That just shows how good the show is, when even it's worst rated episodes are, in fact, still great.
The worst episode is the episode where katara learns about blood bending... That was stupid... She could just go over to the fire lord and blood bend him to her will
0:55 he wasn't going crazy he was going nuts it's not the same i mean what if someone sold your pet that you love while he/she was not home what? You would be mad i don't get you man?
I actually really liked the swamp episode, even though it may be one of the worst, it's still just as great as any other ep, which says a lot about the show
Am I really the only one who doesn't like that one episode where they watch a play from the fire nation about their own adventures? Sometimes I question if the episode is even real, because I've never seen anyone talk about it at all :/ The only thing carrying that episode is Toph being so excited that her character is played by a strong, tough, loud man 💀
Worst episodes in my opinion: 3. I don’t remember the name but it was abt some fortune teller and some clouds and a volcano 2. Bato of the southern water tribe 1. The great divide
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)

It does

atla is the best

Yeah but he didn’t say that is HIS order. It’s the ratings

Even an episode considered bad from this show has a high ass rating. So all that says about the show is that it's quality deserved to be watched by all the masses.
I also hated the fortune teller episode, literally everyone is brain dead and over reliant on one single woman who claims she can tell the future.
Same. My least favorite episodes were the greatest divide, the fortune teller, and the cave of two lovers
@@Rblx_GlamDoors My absolute favourite episode is the cave of two lovers😅
Thank you. Fortune teller episode and painted lady are the only bad episodes imo
@@Henry-iz7ivpainted lady is a fire episode it may not be super important but it’s fun to rewatch
The only episode in that list that is actual filler is The Great Divide. The other two have later purpose in the show.

The Fortune lady episode and the painted lady are both also pretty much fillers

Being boiled in oil wouldn’t do anything to aang as he can just change the temperature of the air around his skin. Like honestly, are the people of that village that stupid?
ah yes, the people who haven't seen an airbender in their entire life are stupid for not knowing about airbending abilities
Yes.
i guess that’s why aang didn’t seem so bothered
Mostly because that wasn’t a power that air benders had in Atla, it was only added later in Tlok

Season 1: The Great Divide

I hate the nightmare episode where Aang loses his pants. It's just not good and very cringy
The phrase “my royal parts are showing” basically just saved the episode 💀
i want to learn more about Katara and Sokka during their childhood.
Him seeing Toph is more foreshadowing than anything, but still that isnt exactly the right term. Since we don't know who Toph is, and this doesn't tell us at all, it's not a spolier. It's just a mystery girl.

bending teacher

Anyone rewatching the show, no doubt many of them skipped "The Great Devide". I don't even remember almost the entire episode at this point.
My personally I don’t like the dreams and nightmares episode but I’d rather watch that over the great divide
Retroactively, Korra made this a more enjoyable episode.
All of these episodes I really liked besides the last one
i honestly liked the great divide
bruh what the swamp is good, i dont mind avatar day but i do understand why people wouldnt, imprisoned is worse than both of them
I actually really liked the swamp episode, even though it may be one of the worst, it's still just as great as any other ep, which says a lot about the show
Avatar day is legit one of the worst episodes that why in the end they say this is by far the worst town theyve been to🤣
Am I really the only one who doesn't like that one episode where they watch a play from the fire nation about their own adventures? Sometimes I question if the episode is even real, because I've never seen anyone talk about it at all :/

I forget the name of the episode but the one where aang lied to katara and sokka about their dad just made him look selfish.
The only episode I ever skipped in this entire series was Avatar Day, I watched even The Great Divide untşl the end but Avatar Day was just, no.
I disagree on The Swamp, my least favourite episode is The Drill, it just doesnt make sense to me tactically and from an engineering point of view :D
The fortune teller and the painted lady could be on here too
The worst episode is when Appa becomes a circus animal and gets abused
The Great Divide probably could've worked Better if it were a 2 parter!
Yeah, but this episode when I was a little kid, it was freaking terrifying😅 2:09
The great divide is probably my least favorite, I really like the swamp
That’s crazy! the swamp is one of my top 5
I like how you got straight to the point instead of saying a bunch of random stuff lasting for 2 minutes.
I’m surprised that the painted lady didn’t make this list
For me the worst episodes are Avatar Day, The Great Divide, and the worst episode of all time, THE BEACH
I like the swamp episode.
But i hate secret tunnel episode.
I dont like avatar day. The prisoners were cool doe.
The great divide is eh to me.
Worst episodes in my opinion:
3. I don’t remember the name but it was abt some fortune teller and some clouds and a volcano
2. Bato of the southern water tribe
1. The great divide
I agree with the great divide but the fortune teller does not deserve the disrespect and bato isn’t that bad of a episode
didn't watch the vid yet but i BET it's the great divide episode.
