Actually some nice ideas in here
Unfortunately, we got robbed one of the best scenes in the first season (Roku in his temple) and Roku was acting weird in this adaptation just like a couple of other characters (cough, Bumi) but besides that... this was an actually well executed episode of The Blue Spirit! The action scene of Zuko and Aang escaping the fort was good and really close to the original!
I really liked the scene in the end with Zuko on his ship and his crew turning out to be the people he pretty much saved from being sacrificed!
It's always hit or miss with this version Atla, some ideas are good (like the one mentioned before, Katara's and Sokka's chat in the Cave of Two Lovers or Lu Ten's funeral) and some just... don't do the original justice or just feel off.
Anyway, this for sure is the best episode (so far) of the live action remake!
SpongeBob SquarePants: Krabby Patty Creature Feature/Teacher's Pests (2017)
Shocking
Shocked about what this show has become... it's plain unsettling, the animation looks off and it's simply unfunny. Saw this episode on TV randomly and it made me want to turn off the TV very quickly but I stayed to see just how bad it gets. It's obviously been time to let this show rest for many years now but I guess it still makes profit?
So yeah the Krabby Patty Episode is just what I described. It's not like there's never been halloween episodes but I really don't know what I just watched, I wish I could unsee it.
The second episode actually has a funny plot idea, sadly there's just... not many funny moment? I suppose it's subjective but all the character act out of character compared to the first seasons. It's really off-putting.
But still, some stars for the second episode only, it did have some funny moments, even if they're rare.

Entertaining Filler
Some very nice stories here, most notably Momo and Iroh and even Zuko and Katara/Toph was pretty good.
But some people consider this to be the best episode/a 10? That I simply cannot understand, just because some parts are good/emotional, doesn't mean it's a perfect 10. Especially Aang's and Sokka's story definitely is FAR from a 10. If it was just about Iroh, then fair enough but you can't just ignore the other stories dragging down the quality of this Episode. I like this episode too but it's far from being perfect for above mentioned reasons. Rated individually, I'd give Aang's and Sokka's a 5 or a 6, while I'd rate Iroh's 9 or even 10 - so everything combined I'd rate this anthology a 7 or 8 in total.
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Jet (2005)
Jet
This Episode introduces Jet, a character that's widely hated due to his very extreme approach against the fire nation, risking innocent lives just to deal a blow against the fire nation. But that's what war does to some people, especially after being traumatised as a little kid. You don't have to like Jet but his actions are understandable, not justified, but understandable.
It's definitely not my favourite episode or anything like that but it has some cool fighting scenes and cool shots, especially when the dam is blown up. I don't like Jet (the character) either, that's the whole point. Don't let your hate for Jet distract you from the Episode itself, it shows you what war can do (to people).
Naruto: Shippûden (2007)
Great Anime
I would recommend this anime to everyone who watches anime and hasn't seen this one yet. Naruto (Shippûden) has a very interesting story, filled with both expectable and unexpected plot twists, very cool villains (the Akatsuki made me watch the entire Anime in the first place) and some of the best written character (stories) in all of anime. That story is supported by an amazing soundtrack, especially the sad/emotional tracks just hit different and furthermore the anime has a lot of very legendary fights as well; basically everything you want from a good shonen.
But, due to the nature of this anime I just can't rate it a 10, or even a 9. There's multiple reasons for that but ultimately they all come down to one main point: making the anime last longer than it needs to. 500 Episodes is a lot and not all of them are worth watching. Sadly fillers and unnecessary amounts of flashbacks ruin the flow of the anime immensely. I mean Shippûden consists of ~40% fillers and while some of them are definitely enjoyable it's still a lot of episodes that simply aren't canon and slow down the main story.
In addition to that not all characters are written well equally. Especially (female) supporting characters seem somewhat one dimensional and others are just plain annoying (if you've seen the anime you should at least have a handful of characters in mind while reading this). Luckily the great characters outshine the bad ones by a large margin, so I obviously understand that not all characters can get the same amount of "love", especially when there's so many of them.
That being said, even with its flaws, Naruto Shippûden is 100% worth watching (even if it's not in its entirety, the main story, characters and fights make up for the mentioned issues, and fillers are always skippable, even though I'd recommend at least trying to watch them first).
Naruto: Shippûden: "Chikara" Episode Final (2013)
One of the wildest filler arcs I've seen
This whole arc was very interesting and cinematically executed very well.
I did not expect this arc to be that watchable, it felt like a movie and I personally really enjoyed it more than I thought!
Stranger Things: Chapter Seven: The Massacre at Hawkins Lab (2022)
Satisfying
Really satisfying to see a show hinting at something from the beginning of the season and your theory turning out to be true. In this case Vecna being 1, the mysterious new character that always seemed to be close to 11 and acting rather suspicious. What I didn't expect was him being that boy from the flashbacks, but another dot connected, which is really cool!
In conclusion Vecna being 1 being the assistant isn't really surprising, BUT that's a good thing. It shows the writers had an intention and it makes sense. There were really only two options either Vecna is the assistant or something completely new, which could've been the case as well.
Now for the episode itself, it was very intense and packed with great acting. Probably the best Episode of the Season!
SpongeBob SquarePants: Arrgh!/Rock Bottom (2000)
2 very good, classic SpongeBob Episodes
Not much to mention here.
Rock Bottom is by far one of my favorite Episodes from Season 1, so this one's a 10/10 for me.
Arrgh! Is a pretty strong episode as well, which I'd probably rate 9/10.
Overall I like the vibe of both of these episodes, which is a slightly more ''scary'' direction than your average Spongebob episode, especially in Rock Bottom but both are packed with some very funny and iconic jokes!
SpongeBob SquarePants: Chocolate with Nuts/Mermaidman and Barnacleboy V (2002)
Amazing double Episode
Usually I have problems with giving SpongeBob Episodes a 10 because of the classic Double Episode format. In this case I'd give both episodes AT LEAST a 9 and both are just hilarious and memorable. I think especially Chocolate with Nuts is one of the most well known and liked SpongeBob episode while Mermaidman and Barnacleboy V is one of my personal favorites.
10/10 double Episode.
Naruto: Shippûden: Shimura Danzô (2011)
Surprising
Even someone as hated as Danzô got an actually pretty epic death in the end, did not expect that. May you finally see the 3rd in the afterlife again, after a definitely deserved death.
SpongeBob SquarePants: The Secret Box/Band Geeks (2001)
Band Geeks
So I think it's common thinking to consider Band Geeks one of, if not the best SpongeBob Episode, for a good reason. It's just so satisfying to see Squidward actually winning for once, besides the episode being filled with hilarious, memorable and quotable moments.
Unfortunately it suffers from being paired with another episode, The Secret Box, which is simply not as good and I personally don't really like how Patrick acts in this episode.
Overall I'd give this a 9 still, since Band Geeks is just that good!
Naruto: Shippûden: Kakashi gaiden ~ Senjô no bôizu raifu ~ Kôhen (2009)
Tragic :(
Very interesting look into Kakashi's (tragic) past and an explanation for his scar AND sharingan.
This anime made me shed tear over a character I've only known for one/two episodes, well done!
SpongeBob SquarePants: Shanghaied/Gary Takes a Bath (2001)
9/10
Shanghaied is easily a top 10 SpongeBob Episode but Gary takes a bath is an 8 at best, probably more of a 7.
But as said, Shanghaied really carries this double episode to a 9 since the second one isn't bad, just not as good, especially in comparison.
