You’re welcome!
It’s been tough for me because I personally don’t believe in the concept of a “spoiler,” so I know I’m going to break and read descriptions of the leaks before Friday.
However, I also work for Viacom and TV scheduling is a harsh mistress I dance with a lot. I can’t speak for whomever is doing the dubs for Team Korra, but I can’t imagine how soul-crushing it must have been for the core team to see the middle part of a key season leak out. In solidarity with the creatives, I don’t want to torrent or download anything stolen.
And, yes, there’s a difference between a leak and theft and this WAS THEFT.
Anyway. My feelings get even more complicated when I consider that I don’t know what the best form of positive re-enforcement is knowing that Book Four is already getting completed and that’s all we’ve been promised in the Korra story.
So wouldn’t anything I do to give Nick ratings ultimately be more valuable to Nick, a company I don’t have complete faith in over Team Avatar whom I trust completely?
At this point, if Korra’s core creatives just opened up a PayPal Tip Jar, I’d kick them a few bucks there.
The good news is this Friday we catch up to the first of the leaked episodes, so in the future we’ll barely remember this frustrating time period.
