I'm feeling much the same way. I keep thinking that I'm missing something with Korra's storyline - like it can't possibly be this simplistic and uninteresting, and that it can't be so disconnected from anything the characters were meant to have learned in the last season. It's so easy to imagine alternative takes on the story that I would find so much more engaging, but the episodes just keep drifting further in the opposite direction. (And Bolin/Eska has become so gross. I was hoping that Asami was going to step in during the last episode and be the voice of reason, but nope.)

That said, I would be happy to watch all Air Family, all the time. Tenzin and Ikki's tea party, Bumi and Kya's hug, and the idea of one family being responsible for restoring an entire culture...that's the Avatar-verse I love.

I'm still slightly hopeful that by having Korra turn on her uncle and by wrapping up the Air Family drama so quickly, there's some sort of twist planned for when the two storylines come together...but after last season, I'm not holding my breath.
