Imprisoned (Avatar: The Last Airbender):
Season One (Book One: Water) of Avatar: The Last Airbender, an American animated television series on Nickelodeon, aired 20 episodes from February 21, 2005[1] to December 2, 2005.[2] The series was created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko,[3] and starred Zach Tyler Eisen, Mae Whitman, Jack DeSena, Mako, Dante Basco, and Jason Isaacs as the main character voices.
The season focuses on the protagonist, Aang, and his friends Katara and Sokka as they journey to the North Pole to find a Waterbending master to teach Aang and Katara. Fire Lord Ozai, the current Fire Lord of the Fire Nation, is waging a seemingly endless war against the Earth Kingdom, the Water Tribes, and the already vanquished Air Nomads. Aang, the current Avatar, must master the four elements—Air, Water, Earth, and Fire—before defeating the Fire Lord and ending the war. Along the way, Aang and his friends are chased by various pursuers, including Prince Zuko, a banished Fire Nation prince, and Admiral Zhao, a key member of the Fire Navy.
Each episode of Season One attracted more than a million viewers each time the network aired a new episode. Season One won "Best TV Series" and "Best Animated Television Series" in the boys 9–14-year old demographic at the 2005 Pulcinella Awards, which gives awards for excellence in animation.[4]
Between January 4, 2006 and September 19, 2006, five DVD sets were released in the United States, each containing four episodes from the season. On September 12, Nickelodeon also released the "Complete Book One Collection Box Set", which contained all of the episodes in the season as well as a special features disc.[5] The original releases were encoded in Region 1, a DVD type that plays only in American DVD players. In 2007 and 2008, Nickelodeon released Region 2 DVDs, which can play in Europe.[6]
[edit] Production
The show was produced by and aired on Nickelodeon, which is owned by Viacom.[3] The show's executive producers were co-creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, who worked alongside episode director and co-producer Aaron Ehasz.[3][7] Eight episodes were directed by Dave Filoni.[7] Animation directors Lauren MacMullan and Giancarlo Volpe directed five episodes each, and Anthony Lioi directed two.[3] Episodes were written or co-written by a team of writers, which included Nick Malis, John O'Bryan, Matthew Hubbard, James Eagan, Ian Wilcox, Tim Hedrick and Elizabeth Welch Ehasz.[8] All of the show's music was composed by "The Track Team", which consists of Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn,[3] who were known to Dante and Konietzko because Zuckerman was Konietzko's roommate.[9]
Most of the show's main characters made their debut in the first three episodes. Zach Tyler Eisen and Mae Whitman provided the voices of protagonists Aang and Katara, with Jack DeSena as Sokka's voice.[3] Dante Basco and Mako starred as antagonists Zuko and Iroh,[3] though their role in the show would change near the end of the season.[10] Aang's animal companions, Appa and Momo, were both voiced by Dee Bradley Baker.[8] In the third episode of the season, a new enemy to both Aang and Zuko, Admiral Zhao,[11] was voiced by Jason Isaacs.[8] Halfway through the season, Aang and his friends encounter Jet,[12] who was voiced by Crawford Wilson.[8]
[edit] Reception
The first season of Avatar has been critically acclaimed for its ability to reach "an audience beyond the children's market with crisp animation and layered storytelling."[13] Lesley Aeschliman from Helium.com, a peer reviewed citizen journalism website, also "enjoy[s] the storytelling of this series" and says "the ending of each episode leaves you wanting to see more."[14] Also from Helium.com, Nicki Marks remarked:
Typically kids shows are based solely on humor and have plot lines that only carry through that specific episode. Some minor characters do reoccur from time to time, but for the most part there is no real connection from episode to episode. The show can go on as long as people are interested.[15]
As for the video and picture quality, Gord Lacey from TVShowsOnDVD.com claims "the colors are bright, and the picture is nearly flawless." He says later in the review that "the audio is very nice, with lots of directional effects and nice musical cues."[16] Barnes & Noble reviewer Christina Urban praised the season's masterful combination of "elements from Chinese kung fu, Tibetan philosophy, Japanese martial arts forms, and even Hindu spiritual beliefs".[17] According to Aaron Bynum from Milowerx Animation Studios, "the series posted double digit year-to-year gains in May". He also said that the show has been number one in the boys 9–14-year old demographic, and has attracted many age and gender groups in its pool of 1.1 million viewers who watch each new episode.[18]
In addition, the season has won many awards throughout its runtime. During the 33rd Annual Annie Awards, the show was nominated for the "Best Animated Television Production" award. Because of the episode "The Fortuneteller", the show was nominated for the "Writing for an Animated Television Production" award. For the episode "The Deserter", the season was nominated for and won the "Storyboarding in an Animated Television Prodcution" award.[19] During the 2005 Pulcinella Awards, the season won the "Best Action/Adventure TV Series" award as well and the general "Best TV Series" award.[4]
