When we say the world's greatest show ever to air on tv, we obviously know it's Game of Thrones but when we say greatest cartoon series ever made, Ben 10 doesn't have the guts to stand next to avatar aang'. Every about it was perfect especially the final battle at Souzin's comet, when aang' entered the avatar state I almost kissed my tv screen😂

A brilliant show. Entertaining, thought provoking and strangely inspiring. The characters are wonderful, (Zuko obviously being my favourite) and the whole story, setting and plot is brilliant. The story is engaging from the start, and continually thrilling with young characters who face very mature problems - whilst also maintaining their youthfulness and amusing immaturity. Highly recommend!

This is one of the best television series I've ever seen. There isn't one episode that I didn't enjoy. Every character is so well thought out and developed, the humour is great, the combat is amazing and the art is stunning. I couldn't recommend this show enough - saying I love it is an understatement.
