Avatar: The Last Airbender season 2 is about to hit Netflix but some fans were treated to a special early screening of episode 1. The new show live-streamed on Tudum to some fans who have been sharing their early reactions on social media.

The second season reunites viewers with Aang (Gordon Cormier) as he and his friends head deeper to the Earth Kingdom to face their enemy, Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim). Promising to be an epic new journey, it sees the gang discover new locations and new foes on their adventure.

The first season, released in 2024, had some pretty mixed reactions, sitting at a pretty average 62% from critics and 70% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. However, early reactions to the first episode of season 2 are already saying it's an improvement.
