The first two seasons of The Legend of Korra<\/em> were problematic for a few reasons. Chief among these is its lack of an identity and defined set of goals. Avatar: The Last Airbender<\/em> established its goal in the first episode: save the world from the machinations of the Fire Nation and its power-hungry leader. The Legend of Korra<\/em>, on the other hand, can’t decide if it’s a coming-of-age story, an exploration of social and political revolution, a buddy-cop comedy, or an epic fantasy. Instead of dedicating itself to a tight focus, it splits its attention between all of these themes and doesn’t do any of them particularly well.<\/p>\n

Still, the back-half of Season 2 featured some of the show’s best moments, and offered hope for the future of the show. The new trailer for The Legend of Korra Season 3<\/em> is so damn fun, and full of so much variety and Avatar-y goodness that my enthusiasm refuses to be stamped down. Will The Legend of Korra<\/em> finally reach the heights of its predecessor? Maybe, maybe not. But, there ain’t no shame in hoping.<\/p>\n
