For brevity’s sake, I have only credited the writers of each episode as the author. I’ve devised a rigorous system to quantitate the qualitative aspects of the show, and with it, I have ranked all 61 episodes of AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER, based on their objective quality.Before we begin, a couple notes: Multi-part episodes and episodes which first aired on the same date are being considered as single episodes for the purposes of this list. But how do we objectively locate the best episode of what’s objectively the best series?Wonder no more. It took several years of research, but we now know—objectively—that Nickelodeon’s mid-2000s animated action-adventures series AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER is the best show ever made.
-25 points for a very convenient volcanic eruption. Sike.+50 points for Aang’s weaving skills. Considering how spirituality informed the rest of the show is, one would believe an episode titled “The Fortuneteller” would have some fresh observations about prophecy and premonition. "The Fortuneteller" (Season 1, Episode 14) written by Aaron Ehasz & John O'BryanThis episode is cute, but its cuteness doesn’t make up for its trite jokes.
Ehasz / DiMartinoThe bulk of this two-parter is Spirit World exposition and setting up the stakes for the rest of the series. "Winter Solstice (Parts 1 & 2)” (Season 1, Episodes 7-8) written by A. -150 points for banal tribalism clichés.48. +200 points for Rene Auberjonois (RIP). It’s true that this episode doesn’t have any real point, direction, or relevance with the rest of the series, but its biggest crime is that it’s one of the two A:TLA comedy episodes without consistently good jokes.+50 points for neat art style shifts. "The Great Divide" (Season 1, Episode 11) written by John O'BryanIs this episode really as bad as every A:TLA fan who tells you to skip it says it is? Or is it yet another underappreciated Season 1 gem? I lean towards the former.
+200 points for industrial-imperialist comeuppance. +100 points for a little hill with horns. Josh HamiltonThe Fire Nation invasion plot takes a backseat for some environmental awareness boosting.+50 points for Doc Shoe Bushi’s rise-and-grind lifestyle. "The Painted Lady" (Season 3, Episode 3) w. -100 points for infodump overdose.47. +200 points for Rokus and Dragons.
+300 points for Swole King Bumi.45. +150 points for lost cabbages. You really can’t help but love our tattooed flying monk boy after this one.+50 points for a newly refurbished bed chamber. John O'BryanWhat starts out feeling like an obligatory usage of the Three Trials trope ends up being an entertaining showcase of Aang’s best qualities. "The King of Omashu" (Season 1, Episode 5) w.
-100 points because Aang’s sleep-deprived eyelids are too relatable.44. +350 points for Dream Aang’s Humphrey Bogart impression. +250 points for Dream Aang’s ‘90s shōnen gear. John O'BryanA:TLA actively triggers insomniacs with this interlude about Aang’s stress dreams.+150 points for Sokka Freud.
+300 points for sweatbending. Coming up with compelling episode ideas for her must have been a real head-scratcher, so I’m glad we got something, but this caper adventure lacks the teeth of its surrounding episodes.+200 points for A:TLA’s only cold open. Joshua HamiltonA problem going into Book 3 was the potential for Toph to get sidelined since earthbending would no longer be Aang’s focus and the war wasn’t personal for Toph the way it was for Katara and Sokka.
On another site, that would make this the #1 episode of A:TLA. Ian WilcoxThis episode introduces June, the #1 baddie of A:TLA. “Bato of the Water Tribe" (Season 1, Episode 15) w.
+500 points for Hakoda’s heartbreaking departure. +300 points for Bato’s reassuring presence. In all seriousness though, “Bato of the Water Tribe” is a really touching episode.+100 points for an ice dodging ceremony.
"The Swamp" (Season 2, Episode 4) w. +1,000 points for a smoke-filled scramble for a scroll.41. It also features a scene which added nuclear ammunition to the shipping wars.+1,000 points for that Zuko-Katara necklace interaction. John O'BryanThis one’s a fun pirate adventure. "The Waterbending Scroll" (Season 1, Episode 9) w.
+3,500 points for the most apologetic siege in TV history. +2,500 points for turning stairs into slides. The sequence where the gAang storms the Earth King’s palace is sick as hell though.+500 points for cinderblock dominos. John O'BryanThere’s not a lot to say about this episode since it mostly functions as a hasty wrap-up for the Ba Sing Se conspiracy plotline and set-up for the Book 2 finale. "The Earth King" (Season 2, Episode 18) w. (Note: if I ever get to make an AVATAR sequel series, the new Avatar will be born in the Foggy Swamp.
It often gets overlooked in the A:TLA comedies canon because it’s not a parody of pro-wrestling, nor is it an explosion of meta-humor like a certain other episode.+10,000 points for too many jokes to list here. This episode is packed with hilarious moments. Joshua HamiltonSECRET TUNNELLLL! SECRET TUNNELLLLLL! What? I never said this list would be about restraint. "The Cave of Two Lovers" (Season 2, Episode 2) w.
A remarkable amount of thought went into making Aang, Katara, and Sokka immediately endearing, while also seeding their internal conflicts for the rest of the show. Michael DiMartino & Brian Konietzko.It shouldn’t go unappreciated how effective this pilot was in establishing the main characters, themes, and world of A:TLA. "Boy in the Iceberg"/"The Avatar Returns" (Season 1, Episodes 1-2) w. *beat* Earth Kingdom it is.”38. But if the Fire Nation discovers us, we’ll be turned over to Azula.

"The Northern Air Temple" (Season 1, Episode 17) w. My grandmother used to tell me stories…”37. A solid start.+20,000 points for “Water.
It’s definitely A:TLA’s second best prison break episode.+10,000 points for an earthbending lemur. Matthew HubbardThis one excellently displays why Katara is the nucleus of Team Avatar, and it’s also one of the earliest episodes to show the ravages of the Hundred Year War. "Imprisoned" (Season 1, Episode 6) w. -5,000 point it’s hard to believe in techno-industrialist utopians like the Mechanist these days.36. +20,000 points for that Air Nomad spirit.
Azula finally makes her first real appearance! The exploitative machinations of the Earth Kingdom General forces our heroes to reassess who they can trust… and not for the last time.+1,000 points for the Earth Kingdom soldiers not having a problem with that. Ehasz, Ehasz, Hedrick, & O'BryanThis episode is a bombastic way to tell viewers “No, Aang can’t just go Avatar State Sicko Mode on the Fire Lord, so stop asking.” It also seeds an impressive amount of Season 2 plot threads. "The Avatar State" (Season 2, Episode 1) w.
"The Southern Air Temple" (Season 1, Episode 3) w. +25,000 points for Uncle’s silent treatment (RIP Mako).33. +20,000 points for a vivid representation of the mundanity of fascism.
