I agree! These posts are gold *A* I don't think my 2pm class starts until next week. Since Pacman's writing a post atm and I still have to get ready to leave for campus now, I'll just post during the three hour gap I have today around 1pm-ish. :> Shouldn't hold anyone up haha. As a heads up, Thursday through Saturday, I am totally open after 1pm PST so if I don't post in the mornings those days for whatever reason (e.g. giving someone else a chance to post first; need to study; slept in late... w/e), I'll post in the afternoon instead. I'll leave a notice beforehand if I'm posting in the noon instead of AM. ^^ [hider=ava]I think one reason I was never a [i]huge[/i] fan of Avatar was how frequent the 'filler-y' episodes were. But at the same time, without those episodes, the world-building wouldn't be so clearly hammered into our heads (e.g. what other people think of Aang being gone for so long, as was shown in ep. 12). Same with showcasing personality - e.g. Sokka's morality in ep. 11 like Buns mentioned - and with character developments. So some of the later 'shocking' stuff and the 'better' episodes later (those terms are subjective/imo, of course) wouldn't be as good as they are if not for taking time with development... through fillers. Though I guess they could be less... filler-y? idk haha. I don't watch much TV series at all, except maybe four or five shows? So I'm never sure what to make of fillers sometimes, except they're ~really~ annoying and pointless in some video games lolol. *glares at Disgaea D2*[/hider]
