Korra not being on TV means there's THAT many more little brown girls who aren't going to see themselves represented in the TV shows they watch.

I lost cable 4 years ago so I'm kind of forced to stream it.

[quote=Plenair]I'm not sure about others, but I kinda wanna hope that most people just started to stream it, which lead to the low view rating.[/quote]

For the entirety of book 2, I watched it online since I didn't have a TV with cable in college. Now that I'm home, I'm still watching book 3 online simply because it comes on at 8pm on a friday night when I'm out having fun. Online is much more convenient. It's like Netflix.

A sad day ;-;
Episode 8, especially the fighting scenes were astonishing. Great episode to end off the show's broadcasting.
Hopefully there will be a bigger audience on the internet.

The reason it was pulled was because of a crappy time slot and minimal advertisement. It was one of their biggest shows by far, they just didn't get it the attention it deserved..

It was pulled off tv because it was lacking in views. Book 1 generated about 3-4 million views while book 3 is only reeling in 1 million.

OT: As long as it's aired online in HD I'm fine with it. It's a pain to wait through commercials anyway.
