    Nickelodeon has been awful to the Korra team, why they didn't just give up in the middle of season 3 is beyond me.

    One of the sites I have bookmarked will probably have the final episodes.

    Though it's Nickelodeon's fault for leaking episodes. However, 1.5 million viewers is still a lot, and they should be happy with that, but no.

    Unless this is some sort of joke.

    So what the hell is SDCC, and how do we not miss the last five episodes of book three, anyway? Are they airing online at the Nickelodeon website?

    This?

    Though what sites? Keep us updated, Haya, please!

    Although the whole thing is still bullshit. They could have just kept airing them. What if people only have cable or satellite and no Internet? I believe there are more people in the world without Internet than without cable or satellite.

    There's also Watch Cartoons Online.

    But doing some researching, they may be available on Nick.com.

    Following the Avatar Spirit link here, Avatar Spirit says (see the part I made bigger):

    I can at least guarantee Nick will have the full episodes online.

    Pretty much. They cancelled Victorious and Sam & Cat for no reason, and now they're moving Korra to digital, so there's nothing left that's good on Nick.

    All so they can have more time for terrible episodes of Spongebob and Fairly Odd Parents.

    I don't see why people are disappointed about it moving online. When I said nothing of value of was lost, I really meant it. What did you guys actually lose on this deal? A slot on TV that a lot of the fanbase didn't even tune in for. A lot of people watched it online even when it did have a timeslot. Nickelodeon acknowledged that and tried to accommodate their users in a way that would be most beneficial to everyone. Besides, web releases are becoming more and more a part of the mainstream as a thing. Korea has been releasing comics known as webtunes for years on years at this point. House of Cards, one of the more critically acclaimed and well received shows of recent years was a Netflix original. More than one person bought the RWBY box set and many more have purchased related T-shirts. In the end, all I'm saying is, y'all seem a little inordinately mad over a small hiccup in your week.

    Also, given the update schedule being accelerated, you all should have expected at least this much.

    Because it's potentially terrible for the future of anything Avatar related.

    Because it shows that Nick has no clue how to keep a consistent schedule for a show.

    I'm totally fine with watching it online, but the fact that it started on television is the worrying part. The examples you brought up of House of Cards and RWBY? Both started on their respective digital platforms, and House of Cards (if I recall) also found success in that it made the entire season available at once versus the traditional one episode at a time formula that TV series usually use.

    It's better for accessibility, that I can agree with, but as Haya said it is a cause of concern for the future. Nick has never released or made mention of how many viewers they've attracted for the show online. All view counts they have released and been concerned over, for both Korra and Avatar, have been of their televised premieres, despite additionally hosting the episodes online soon after. Why would they suddenly shift solely to online hosting if that is the case?

    While the move makes sense now given the televised viewer count is currently terrible, it is the fault of the network. Book 1 had a steady average of about 3.5 million at its initial timeslot for the series. There's no reason for then to have changed the timeslot three times just for Book 2 -- even when they saw it pulling in less views, why didn't they just move it back to the slot they knew would be more successful instead of seemingly throwing it wherever?

    I'm not disappointed about the move, but I am disappointed in the network for continually screwing around with the show when they knew they already had a successful slot for it, and somewhat worried about how they're going to be accounting for the online viewer count they've ignored up until now.

    There's an article about Sam & Cat, and it was a mixture of things. Something to do with Jennette and Ariana being late sometimes and then some racey photos of Jennette, most likely nothing she was part of, being leaked.

    They didn't even shoot the last two episodes of the first season.
