Featured review
"Riddles and challenges you must face, if you ever hope to leave this place."
I know what people say against this episode. That it's filler (which for the record it isn't), that the plot twist is obvious since the beginning (which I will concede though it's worth noting Avatar isn't Scooby Doo, the episode doesn't live and die through its mystery), that it's too comedic (while the episode is definitely highly comedic, I don't consider that to be at all a bad thing), that Prince Zuko isn't it (yeah, that one's true and I agree that it's a weakness of the episode.
I personally disagree with all of those criticisms (except the last one, not having Zuko is a weakness for a season one episode.) Beyond that, I find the comedy in this episode funny (the show's most beloved running gag "my cabbages" began here) and I like the lessons Aang has to learn about being resourceful and innovative. I also appreciate how this is the very first episode wherein Aang ever loses his temper and it's specifically in response to his friends being threatened. This episode also does a good job introducing us to Earthbending.
Honestly, it's an underrated episode.
