I've finished season 1 of ATLA, and gosh I missed this show a lot more.
The characters are so great, and it's full of genuine drama and interesting villains.
I especially love how we follow the perspective of both the gaang and Zuko and Irish - even though Zuko is implicitly one of the main villains of season 1!
I don't think I've seen any other shows dedicate such a large portion of time to the perspective of an antagonist like this.

@lizardsquid yeah we didn't like the fortuneteller episode much either, though we didn't mind the great divide

The thing I found odd: most fans hate the episode "The Great Divide", where 2 opposing tribes have to travel through a canyon together, but I actually didn't mind it.
The episode I did hate was the one immediately afterwards, "The Fortuneteller", which features very artificial feeling character drama and very cliche romcom scenes. And the depiction of the Fortuneteller herself felt confused - like they wanted her to both have magic powers and for her to be a fraud
