We are all aware of the creative choices they made, and that some of them didn't really add much positively compared to the original. Are there ones you ended up liking?

For me it’s how clearly Zuko’s family story was told. Note it’s been years since I watched the original, but I remember it being a little muddled until later in the show. But it might have been the longer story spacing out the emotional impacts. The clear picture of a narcissist dad playing his kids against each other/their Mother, oof that hit close to home. Too real and relatable.
