No shade on the actors, dammit. The script is simply trash. That's not his fault.
In the first episode there are a couple lines it seems he is trying his hardest to say as fast as possible. Still no one should be blaming the child in this situation
How is it trash? I've finished binging yesterday and to me is a great example on how to do a good adaptation. Really liked it and cannot wait until season 2
I haven't seen it all till now, but here's what I didn't like about ep 1: https://slrpnk.net/comment/6493971
That review mentioned they only say the first episode only, I'm talking about the season in its entirety. I don't agree with them in that the show tries to be dark and gritty, and in my opinion it's quite the opposite. I found the themes and tone are much more similar to the OG series than people realise .
Edit: sorry I didn't realise you wrote it! In that case I really recommend you finish watching it! I get that you didn't like the first episode, but calling a script 'trash' when you haven't even finished it won't help me understand your opinions
I'm catching up and so far, at episode the tonal whiplash didn't get better.
Changing Sokka's Arc for the Kyoshi warriors to teenagers being horny... 🤢
And the tonal whiplash returned in episode 3 with rebels being burned alive in the beginning and that horribly cliche writing how Kitara got her groove back. 🙄
