And especially as the series went on, Seasons 2 and 3 are a lot more mature in theme than, say, Season 1 was. So for us, it was about striking that right balance, of making sure you were true to the DNA of the original. But at the same time, we had to make it a serialized Netflix drama, which meant it couldn't just be for kids. It had to also appeal to the people who are big fans of Game of Thrones. And so, it had to feel grounded and mature and adult in that way too. So that's, like I said, the tightrope that we have to walk.

Who was asking for this? I don't remember ever speaking with another fan of ATLA and them saying "I wish it was more like Game of Thrones". Why does it have to appeal to an older audience? Most of its fans are probably in their 20's or older, and we are still big fans of the original show.

    Also "mature" apparently means "they swear now" to these people lol. What're the odds we'll see some gratuitous sex scene?

    Hopefully not the characters are kids and teenagers
