Are you familiar with Nickelodeon’s The Avatar? Their UK network showed the whole sceries over the Christmas break & by chance, I got to see most of it with my Nanay. By accident we were channel surfing & Avatar was just starting.

I thought she was a captive audience as I’m a big cartoon/animated/anime-fanatic & she’s more a “Mara-Clara” follower. When the first episode was finished, I thought that was it & I was wondering when I’d actually get to see the next episodes. I went to the kitchen & then Nanay started hollering, “ay eto na yung kasunod bilis!” (come back the continuation’s here).

So it went like that for the whole series was shown one after another. She’d go to the loo & be asking if the next episode’s already starting. In the end she was lamenting we couldn’t record it (i’ve no vcr or dvd recorder) as she wants a copy. Then she suggested I rent the next series from my Amazon subscription (i tried but the show ran for 1 season only).

Nanay never ceases to amaze me. I don’t know if she genuinely liked watching the show or if she was just trying to understand what I like or what I am now.
