Despite all of its praise and how much I lourrve Avatar: The Last Airbender, I have not yet taken the time to sit down and watch The Legend of Korra. Maybe it’s something I can do before Comic-Con this year? I have heard nothing but great things and it looks like the creators have continued to bring the amazing action, adventure, and fun characters that made A:TLA so incredible. Maybe I’m just subconsciously waiting for the series to end like Airbender so I can digest all four scheduled seasons at once. If you love the show, Korra has a ton of Blu-ray extras that you can find below:
- Cast and Crew Audio Commentaries for all 14 episodes
