A simple kid's show treats it's viewers like they're stupid and prefer to rely on cutesy kids or creatures. This is not one. The show features the characters going through guilt, their own personal struggles, and revenge. The villains are never shown to just be dastardly clichés and are often made tragic instead.
No one is perfect and this show more than demonstrates. See, the Avatar, who acts as a bridge between the physical world and the spirit and who is in charge of maintaining balance, runs away from his destiny and ends up getting frozen in an iceberg for one hundred years. During this time, the Fire Nation destroys his people and he is the only one remaining.
When he is free from this iceberg he befriends a brother and sister, who are far from lame sidekicks, both having their own strengths that are built on as the show goes on. On top of that, the avatar rides a flying bison! It is badass and don't act like it's not awesome. Let your inner kid be brought out by this. The humor isn't embarrassingly bad (for the most part) so even if you're an adult give the show a little chance.
When I said inner kid I mean take the time to stop being so down with every day life and just sit down and watch the story.
