Originally broadcast on Nickelodeon from 2005-2008, Avatar: The Last Airbender was co-created by Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko and takes place in a medieval fantasy realm (loosely based on Asia) where certain people are capable of controlling one of the four classic elements: Water, earth, fire, or air.
