Oh my god! Red vs Blue. I haven't watched that in years. I really need to dig up those DVDs again.

I feel slightly guilty for just reading Mark's ATLA reviews but not the comments this week (and it certainly sounds like it's been some fun) but I'm trying to get a few evil small assignments done so I can concentrate on the main one and I tend to work better in the evening/night so I can't stay on top of the comments over there at the moment.
You should really add a point for Boomerang's first appearance whacking Zuko over the back on the head in Ep 1.

So.... this episode....

Some stuff happened.

Yep.
Lol I love how discussion of this episode is almost non-existant. There's just not a whole lot to talk about, is there?
This is an odd question...but Americans don't have a bank holiday tomorrow, right? I don't *think* you do, but I just thought I'd check!

"Look, it's the Great Divide, the biggest canyon in the Earth Kingdom!"
"Eh, let's just keep flying."

Not gonna report them all since laziness prevails, but I wish people would stop with the yay next episode stuff.

Guys, I’ve just made a monster of a comment for tomorrow’s episode, and now I’m in need of gifs to make it less of a strain on the eyes. (Lol, where do you guys find them all?) I was wondering if anyone has gifs of;

Iroh flinching away as Zuko is burnt (with Zhao and Azula in the shot, but I’m not mentioning the latter).

The head shot of Zuko in the Agni Kai, crying, right before he’s burned.

Still not done with season three but TRYING, TRYING to get done so that I can participate in spoiler conversation. I got spoiled already on a few things because I've been too daring.

In the middle of The Day of the Black Sun Part 2. GOOD SO GOOD SO GOOD.

Okay, I'm blanking - is there a scene/moment in one of Whedon's shows where someone/thing interrupts a bad guy giving their evil monologue and someone quips about interrupting them/not wanting to hear such a speech?

It might not be Whedon, but that feels right.

SO EXCITE!

I just watched the Face of Evil, which I guess is Doctor Who's take on this episode. OMG I had no idea that was how Leela got on the Tardis, I just kind of love her more now.
