"They" is who? I see only die hard fans complaining. It's been a success for Netflix. I'm one of the people who love the Netflix show despite the crap acting / script on some parts. I tried to get into the Anime three times now but I just can't get past it being so child-oriented. I felt like I'm watching Pokémon. The Netflix variant is much darker, which I believe to be more fitting than the children's show.

You should just start with Legend of Korra (which has an older cast and older target audience), or even skip to the middle of ATLA.

And yeah, the immaturity, especially in the first series, is something the super diehard fans (even more diehard than me) blatantly ignore.
