So I just watched this video by The Nostalgia Chick: here.
She makes a good point about "tokenism", and I guess I could speak about that for a bit, but... but... I must be the only one who watched the scene where she shows the list of Nick cartoons and sought out and found Avatar: The Last Airbender on the list, and thought, 'okay, I know the main character is male, but COME ON! Doesn't it at least deserve a mention? It has some of the best female characters I've seen in a North American cartoon, like, ever.'
Just watch this video.
... Yeah, I'm a nerd. I know it.
