>Since its June 27 premiere, The Legend of Korra has been troubled with low ratings. From as high as 1.5 million on the first episode to as low as 1.1 million on the fourth and fifth episodes, it was only a matter of time before episodes were either rescheduled or pulled completely.

>Now, the network has started pulling the episodes completely. After seven new episodes of Book Three’s 13 have aired, Nick has pulled one episode from this Friday as well as all four episodes from August 1 and 8.

Friday night is an increasingly bad time to air the show. SHOCKER. Wasn't any better then last time. SATURDAY back when you got 4.0 plus idiots.

They should have stuck with doing this all after comic con like they had planned and ignored the leaks. But Nick has never done that. ATLA Book three Aired Early in Canada so they bum rushed the whole thing over a week and blew the finale wad all over the weekend.

Or...or...OR they could just be changing it to once a week airings, meaning they believe the ratings are strong. Pulling just one episode this week and then shifting the final four episodes down however many number of weeks because that's how scheduling works. Also, I don't see any links to any sources in this. So why should I believe that Nick is abandoning it? No reason to start panicking guys.

Hi, Megan!

>>63887739
Maybe the show isn't that good if you can't even care enough to scheck your TV program when you know it airs thanks to korrafags hourly dosing the board for months now.
>>
So does this mean Korra is dead?
>>
Time to pull out the leech
>>
>>63887131
I'm sorry, but advertisement is a bullshit excuse. This is the internet age. People who watch Korra know when Korra's on. I doubt a lot of them even watch Nick beyond Korra anyway.

If the interest isn't there, it's not there.
>>
So far this is the only source. So I am not really buying it
>>
Listen I think Korra is a shit show, a total bastardization of the original Airbender, and the writers themselves admit they don't know how to fucking write.

But I'm never a fan of networks trying to screw over their own shows. Feels like they were a bunch of idiots and signed on for shitloads of Korra sight unseen and now they're trying to get out of it, which is their own fucking fault.
>>
>>63888179
And what's funny is they start doing it just as the show gets better.

What does pulling episodes accomplish anyway? An extra month isn't going to make a huge impact and all you're doing is pissing the people watching the show off. I don't mean it about Korra only but in general. Do they think the same people AND some more are gonna watch whatever shit they decide to air with a week's notice?

I'm honestly wondering if it isn't something like this. Now that we've seen all the leaked episodes, they'll change it back to one episode per week. It'll pull the same ratings and they can drag it out longer.

Oh, this is hilarious! If that PPG reboot doesn't get off the ground, the only action-oriented cartoon with prominent female protagonists for the SJWs to latch onto will be the one about technicolor horses that are worshipped by men in their 20s-40s!

Looking forward to Miraculous Ladybug, but damn if I'm not glad that this awful show is getting equally awful treatment.

you guys are dumbasses, we've caught up to where it was leaked, Nick has made back as many sheckels as they can now they're just playing it like they normally would. The two episode a week thing was them trying to forcefeed this to as many people who hadn't seen the leaks as they could.
>>
>>63888707
It costs money to have the show produced in the first place. They are better off moving to a schedule where they either air new episodes of a show on weekday evenings, or on Saturday mornings.

Nothing beats a Saturday/Sunday morning hangover cartoon marathon.

That's because you're out of touch with reality. You're on a fucking comic and cartoon board for fucks sake, so you're in the know a LOT more than the average person. I'm talking about people that love the show as a "show" and don't go research it. If he saw a commercial for it, he'd put it above everything else he had to do that day.

That's how MOST people are, not discussing new info and timeslots on the internet about it. Most people don't sit there wondering when the next season of their favorite show MIGHT be airing while they are at their job or school, etc.

Thank god someone on here has some fucking sense. Advertising does matter, idiots. Your average viewers of a given show is not HALF as interested as a typical Avatard. The flaws in the show do matter, so stop trying to hard to shove criticism down people's throats when it's obvious that this factors in too. But the fact of the matter is the ratings will be higher with more promotion than with less. If you don't believe that, then fuck off back to /b/.
>>
>>63893054
Are you saying that the schedule moves did not effect the ratings? Are you an expert on things that have never happened?
>>
>>63893122

Yeah, I mean... Book 4 was the last anyway, regardless of ratings.

As long as all 4 books come out, i couldn't care less. Practically no one watches this stuff on TV anymore. The children that do are not the kind who'd be able to find out Korra's schedule with the kind of forewarning Nick's given this season.

>>63893167
It probably had an effect but I'm sure what had a bigger effect was the fact it's not a good show that's generally left people disappointed and not caring as it keeps going.

KDF people like to bitch constantly about how the move to Friday nights was just so bad and terrible ignoring that it had ATLA's time slot where ATLA got great ratings and since it's prime time meant more advertising money which means Nick had a lot of faith in the show. KDF people tend to ignore that because they want to believe Nick is out to screw their beloved show over.

You can't blame "The Schedule" for ratings immediately being half of what they were for S1. You can't blame "The Schedule" for there being next to know interest in S3 and continually falling ratings even though it's been a month or so so people should obviously know that Korra's back now. Is Nick trying to kill off the show? Yeah probably, at this point, because its ratings have been in freefall since the start of S2 and the show costs so much money to produce that they probably figure it's best to just cut their losses than dump any more money into a failure. But the fact remains that even still, less and less people are watching it every week despite still having the same schedule which means declining interest in the show. So cry about the schedule all you want but at the end of the day if the creators were actually making something people wanted to watch people would be, surprisingly, watching it.

Seriously this.

So many Korrafags completely forget that ATLA did fine in Korra's timeslot. I mean clearly, just look at the ratings

ATLA came out at a time before proper digital format, that's why they'll never release BRs. You couldn't watch everything online back then as easily as now. .

How much work is done on S4? Because if it's not complete I can easily see Nick dumping the rest of the season online and then just cutting their losses and never making a fourth season.

This is pretty much a clear sign that Korra's an utter failure and the network's given up on it.

You please don't embarrass yourself. Botha book had good villains, characters we like, a plot that's interesting, and no shit animation. What does korra season 3, villains we don't care about or ever heard of, characters we are told to like, and the god awful "plot".

Not a surprised if they cancelled it after this shit.

You know what grinds my gears? When Korrafags say "W-WELL ITS JUST NOSTALGIA! ATLA ISNT EVEN THAT GOOD! LOK IS A WONDERFUL SHOW! ATLA HAD PROBLEMS TOO!" as if they only watched ATLA episodes once 5 years ago on TV. Go rewatch ATLA, note that the characters are generally much more interesting and likeable right off the back. LoK? Only barely getting there with book 3
>>
>>63893665

Supposedly a lot of it is done, like the majority of it, 3 and 4 were made concurrently. Hard to say how much.

ATLA has a lot of the flaws people give Korra shit for. Thus, nostalgia and hypocrisy color a lot of the complaints.

The death of western action cartoons advances another step and it's met with cheers and applause. I guess we better learn to enjoy Spongebob reruns.

Not him, but look at the facts: Korra is moving to digital. That means it wasn't good enough. Period.

>>63893544
Not him, but look into the context: ATLA was made for its period of time and he did great. LoK is meant for THIS period of time and isn't doing as good. Nick and Bryke are at fault here for treating this show as if we're still in 2000s.

Hmm lets see, people generally don't like Korra because of:
>Plot
Hmm, LoK had several different villains each book where they have to keep doing backstories and explaining completely new things in a short format leaving barely any room for decent character development that isn't forced through contrived dialogue or AMNESIA.

>Characters
I can understand people have different tastes and can choose to dislike a character because of their actions or words. For example, I didn't like Sokka in the beginning but noticed he's actually competent sometimes, and when I rewatched ATLA recently I actually liked Sokka and understood his point of view of benders and Aang in episode 1. LoK? Episode 5 please.

Honestly what are you talking about

Regardless of whether you like or hate LoK, why are you celebrating another nail in the coffin of western cartoon action shows?

What possible joy could you get out of making way for more Butch Hartman and Pendleton Ward abominations? Even if LoK is poorly made as you say, its eventual cancellation is only making everything worse. Executives will look at it as an example that western audiences can't handle and don't want action cartoons regardless of how much of an audience exists for them.
