The Legend of Korra Season 4 Episode 4 Review: “The Calling” | TVOM

TVOM: "When watching The Legend of Korra–or any TV series, for that matter–it’s hard to view the product from outside the context of the story itself. Maybe in special cases like this one, the animation or scoring is just so superb that you wind up buying official art books or OSTs. More often than not, though, the show is so engrossing that it exists in its own world. The showrunners and voice actors are somewhere out there floating on the periphery not-so-secretly pulling the strings, but acknowledging them is a secondary task to appreciating and analyzing the show they’ve created. In the case of the Avatar franchise, there is someone who simply cannot go under-recognized and -appreciated, because to do so would be a travesty. Katie Mattila’s major contributions to Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra have been sparse but phenomenal in the purest sense of that word’s otherworldly connotations. And if you go back and look at her list of writing credits, that’s very apparent. “The Tales of Ba Sing Se” and “The Beach” are both among the select few best episodes of Avatar (Mattila wrote the latter and contributed “The Tale of Zuko” to the former). And remember last season’s “Old Wounds”? You know, the one that went head-first into Lin’s background with her sister and deepened her character in a way that made her the most compelling part of an already excellent season? Also a Mattila-penned story. “The Calling” isn’t quite on that level and has an occasional hiccup, but this episode is still clearly the work of someone who is perhaps Korra‘s (and Avatar‘s) best individual writer."
