As far as the ethnic cleansing, that was pretty much another 'hint' to the Nazi/Hitler parallel for the Earth Empire

I agree with pretty much everything you said here: Lo K was a fun show, not as good as A:tLA, but still one hell of a ride.

One Hell of a Roller Coaster Ride.
Okay, I remember when I watched the Last Airbender and I thought it was an awesome series. So, now that the sequel is over, I'd thought I'd throw in my two cents. Personally, I loved it. I thought it was a pretty awesome show. The new Team Avatar might not measure up to the Gaang, but they are still awesome in their own right.
Season 1 was a pretty good start. It did a good job at introducing us to the new Team Avatar and the Darker and Edgier nature to the world. Amon and the Equalists are among the coolest Avatar villains yet. I regard Amon particularly as Steve Blum at his evil best. Though some have complained about the romantic undertones, I mostly tried to ignore them.
Season 2 was pretty awesome concerning the whole spirits ordeal. The Beginnings two-parter introducing us to the first Avatar Wan was the highlight of the season for me and Vaatu is one of my three favorite Avatar villains (the other two being Hundun and Kuvira). And Varrick. Who doesn't love Varrick?! Unalaq, however, was a bit... meh. The whole Evil Uncle thing has been done to death and his reveal as a villain wasn't that surprising.
Season 3 was the high point of the whole show. It had more drama and managed to expand on the backgrounds of some of our characters and was filled with emotion. The Red Lotus pretty much rival Amon as the coolest villains in the show.
Season 4 was a slight step down from season 3, but it was still loaded with drama, action, Character Development, and an explosive Grand Finale. I just had mostly two problems with it:
Kuvira: While she's one of my favorite villains in the show and Zelda Williams does an incredible job voicing her, She would have been a better character if the actually developed her as a person rather than focus on how many times she can cross the MEH. Also, what was with the whole Ethnic cleansing thing. They mention it once and just drop it. Seemed pointless to me.
Prince Wu: While I am glad they didn't make him a stereotypical snobbish twerp and that he does become a more mature person in the later episodes of the season, I think his Character Development would have been better had it happened much earlier and if it had less silliness in it.
Overall, the show's had its ups and downs and probably doesn't measure up to its predecessor, but it's still an awesome show in its own right and I'm sad its over.
