Holy shit. The fourth and I believe final Avatar DVD is on Amazon with a release date of July 29th. The new episodes (3x12 onward) are scheduled to air on July 14th, based on the ATLA panel at Comic Con NY in April.

There's very little arithmetic necessary realize the big WTF of those dates. Unless they plan to air 8 episodes over, let me see, FIFTEEN DAYS.

I mean, seriously, how many times is this network going to screw over its most popular and criticically acclaimed cartoon? We've all bitterly adjusted to the fact that a book with the final events was released early (many went into hiding, like myself) and to the fact that there's now episodes available on DVD that won't air until July, but I honestly thought they'd keep it in their pants with the finale DVD, at least. At least! Quelle nightmare.

The last time I saw a show get jerked around as much as ATLA has was Firfely, but that was only half a season. Avatar fans have suffered through this bullshit scheduling for three seasons.
