In case you've been living under a rock, Avatar: The Last Airbender was a Nicktoon influenced by Japanese culture that ran from 2005 to 2008, and took place in a world where there are only four elements: Water, Fire, Earth, and Air. Many years ago, the Four Nations lived in harmony, but one day, the Fire Nation started a war, and killed everyone in the Air Nation. A hundred years later, two siblings of the Water Nation, Katara and Sokka, were fishing in the ocean, but to their surprise, they found a spherical ice cube with a frozen child inside. They thawed the ice cube and figured out that the boy is actually an Air Bender named Aang, the last of his kind. Now Katara and Sokka must train Aang to learn all four elements in order to defeat Prince Zuko of the Fire Kingdom. 'Avatar' was the most popular and successful Nicktoon since Hey Arnold and earned amazing reviews, as well as a big online fan base. A sequel series, The Legend of Korra, ran from 2012 to 2014, but wasn't as popular.
Over the Garden Wall, which premiered in late 2014, was the first ever miniseries from Cartoon Network Studios, and one of their most critically acclaimed projects to date. It told the story of two brothers named Wirt and Greg who get lost in a mysterious forest. They seek help from a bluebird named Beatrice to help guide them out of the forest, while avoiding perilous dangers. If you think about it, it's kind of like Disney•Pixar's Up. There's an animal character one of the younger characters gets attached to, a talking animal character that would lead the protagonists to the villain, and an elderly character who mourns over the loss of his loved one. Like Avatar, Over the Garden Wall got great reviews, even if it only ran for 10 episodes. From November 30th to December 3rd of 2015, Cartoon Network aired another miniseries, Long Live The Royals, but was no where near as popular.
Now what show do I think is better? Well, once again, you decide! Put in the comments section below on which show you think is better, and I'll see you again on July 23rd when I compare a show about Three Bare Bears to a show about an 11-year-old boy with 5 older sisters and 5 younger sisters: We Bare Bears vs. The Loud House!
Over the Garden Wall is one of greatest media movie or TV I've seen in last 5 years. It's brilliant
ReplyDeleteAviator: The Last Airbender is the better show in my opinion compared to Over the Garden Wall because they find a lost boy that was the last of his kind and took him in and taught him a lot of cool stuff to defeat the monster.
