Seconding a lot of the love for this show, although I'm most interested in discussing/seeing defences of the third season. The first two seasons are tremendously enjoyable - the last one, from my standpoint, did some immensely stupid things to gin up character drama, and really retroactively brought my opinion of the…

Bummer about the reviews; I'm just getting into this show now that it's up on Netflix.

The scenery was just so pretty, boy I wish the kids coulda seen it, but you can't see outside of the car because the windows are completely covered with the decals from all the places where we've already been.

I'd be in for weekly reviews - between this, Korra and Young Justice, I appreciate the action animation block AVClub is developing.
