GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I think that last week, when Aiwei literally got sent to Hell, was worse.

Well, last season we learned Admiral Zhou has been there for over 70 years. So Aiwei getting tossed in didn't really ping me much. Though I suppose Zhou was more deserving.

anyone else checking this out?

I've got in my queue, but I'm currently watching through Clone Wars (I only saw part of season 1 originally before life made regular TV watching tough for awhile) in prep for Star Wars: Rebels. (No clue how much, if any, tie-in, there will be, but Darth Mouse has declared the movies plus Clone Wars and the upcoming Rebels are considered canon.)

I didn't realize Ming-Hua doesn't have arms. How did I miss that?!?

Well, I am now. Was going to watch the first episode and go to bed. Well, I watched 3.

I agree! I have 3 episodes left. Will likely knock them out tonight.

Then the long wait for the 2nd season that I'm pretty sure we are going to get.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

This week's Korra mostly felt like it was getting things into position for the end game, but it had some enjoyable moments, IMO. I loved Korra talking to Zuko, and Zuko's reaction to hearing about who Korra met in the spirit world.

I also love that Zuko was in a hurry to get back to the Fire Nation to ensure his daughter's safety. Such a big, big change from the way the Fire Nation royal family used to be.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I liked a lot about this episode! Do not want to wait for the next one.

The jumping around the air temple reminded me of Assassins Creed.

Also, happy to learn that the Xbox has a nick app! So watched it on there. Much better than pushing from the iPad to the Apple TV.

I was happy to see Tenzin smacking Zaheer around after him being to untouchable previously (though Kya did give him a close fight earlier in the season.) I just hope Tenzin's going to be okay. I don't know if that was a "preserve the mystery" not showing or a "this is a kid's show" not showing.

That said, speaking of kid's shows, I've been watching Star Wars: The Clone Wars via Netflix, and holy crap is that show violent. No blood, but clones die horribly in just about every episode, people get stabbed with lightsabers, an episode I watched recently had a kid get shot and die and another had people get blown up under water leaving chunks behind. Yeesh. Definitely not letting Mattias watch for a few years, yet.
