Netflix's live-action  adaptation  of "Avatar: The  Last Airbender" has finally  hit the screens, and  the reception is mixed.

Fans of the beloved animated series, which premiered  almost two decades ago,  had high hopes when  Netflix announced

a reimagined version of  the show with the original creators, Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan  Konietzko, at the helm.

However, excitement  turned to disappointment  when DiMartino and  Konietzko departed the project due to creative differences.

Now, under the guidance  of "Sleepy Hollow"  showrunner Albert Kim, live-action "Avatar:  Last Airbender" has made its debut on Netflix.
