Line 12:
** Katara's granddaughter Jinora is an avid bookworm who's read all about the adventures of Avatar Aang and his friends, but there's only one thing she still doesn't know: ''what happened to Zuko's mom''? Katara starts to explain that there's an incredible story behind it [[The Un-Reveal|and is immediately interrupted by Ikki.]]
** "Look, Mommy, I'm a snowbender!" And Pema gets a faceful of snow. Made funnier by the fact that she was complaining about her kids "blowing wind in [her] face every five seconds" right before that.
* The ''looks'' that [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20One/s01e01grab08513.jpg Lin Beifong]{{Dead link}} and [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20One/s01e01grab08522.jpg Korra]{{Dead link}} exchange. Also, all of Tenzin's false niceties.
** And then [http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1ql47jMa61rsyhfyo3_500.gif Lin's reaction] to Korra's [[Eye Am Watching You]].
* Tenzin's red-faced exclamation of [[Berserk Button|"Don't bring my mother into this!"]]
* Korra's [[Bear Hug]] with Tenzin and his kids - she picks up ''all four of them'' with little effort.
** [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20One/s01e01grab09403.jpg Tenzin's "I ''hope'' I won't regret this" look on his face]{{Dead link}} when she does so.
* The [[Bishie Sparkle]]s on the ''bush'' a hobo lives in, and [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20One/s01e01grab05386.jpg Korra's expression when the man says, "Welcome to Republic city".]{{Dead link}}
* During the chase with the police officers, one of them grabs Korra's ponytail with his grapple line. She responds by waterbending a huge wall of ice behind her, causing said officer to slam straight into it. The cartoony way he slides off it is hilarious.
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20One/s01e01grab05101.jpg Korra's gleeful expression as she roasts a fish.]{{Dead link}}
* When Tenzin arrives to spring Korra from jail, [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20One/s01e01grab08568.jpg a little old lady and her Platypus-Bear]{{Dead link}} are sitting in the waiting room. It's just such a random image that it becomes hilarious.

Line 27:
** This is after the [[The Door Slams You|beating]] she got from said training tool/museum piece in an earlier scene. Complete with her collapsing and tweeting birdie sounds.
** "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2VF_QKK4w0 Be the leaf!]"
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Two/s01e02grab01647.jpg The look on Korra's face]{{Dead link}} (and probably the men listening as well) when the radio is suddenly turned off, denying them from knowing what happened in the pro-bending match. It's ''exactly'' the kind of look anyone would get from that kind of situation (eye-twitch optional).
* Tenzin tries, and fails, to nip this [[Bratty Teenage Daughter]] thing in the bud with his own daughters after his initial experience with Korra.
{{quote|'''Tenzin:''' You must promise me your teenage years won't be like this!
Line 50:
* As Korra and Toza argue Bolin walks by in the background. He pauses midstep (as in one foot still in the air) upon noticing Korra and walks over, but not before [[The Charmer|adjusting himself and slicking back his hair]]. What really makes the scene is that [[Funny Background Event|he's too far away to see his facial expressions]], and yet [[Establishing Character Moment|it sets his character up]] perfectly.
* The tournament referee calling "foul! ...[[Aint No Rule|I think.]]" when it's discovered that Korra is the Avatar. Followed by the opposing team's disappointment when the referee permits Korra to continue ([[Obvious Rule Patch|as long as she solely bends water]]).
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Two/s01e02grab04584.jpg The look on Korra's face]{{Dead link}} when the Fire Ferrets are on the verge of losing.
* Korra [[How Do I Shot Web?|shouting "Airbend!"]] as she tries to budge a newspaper (with Chief Beifong's photo), making the signature [[Kamehame Hadouken|"Hadouken!"]] pose as she tries.
* Korra filling in for Hasook when he bails.
Line 64:
 
== [[The Legend of Korra/Recap/B1/E03 The Revelation|The Revelation]] ==
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Three/s01e03grab09692.jpg Korra and Mako's reaction]{{Dead link}} to [[Sleep Cute|waking up on each other's shoulders]].
* Bolin almost passing out upon seeing the wad of bills a gangster tosses him.
* Korra decides to silence Ikki and Jinora the simple way: by Earthbending the two into the sky.
Line 84:
** Then for rest of that shot he starts talking to Korra and Ikki just ''stares'' with this ridiculous look on her face without anyone commenting on it. Maybe they don't say anything because it's the same face her mother is currently giving her father (see below).
{{quote|'''Ikki:''' Bye-bye, Ponytail Man!}}
* Just before that, Tarrlok invites himself to dinner, playing on Airbender hospitality. Tenzin reluctantly agrees. Then the camera pans over to Pema, who's staring at him in disapproval. [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Four/s01e04grab04976.jpg Tenzin just shrugs.]{{Dead link}}
* Apparently, the ability to make funny faces and garner fangirls runs in the family. After Asami hits him with her scooter and vehemently tries to apologize, Mako—a bit miffed at first—goes completely gaga over her after seeing how pretty she is, stammering helplessly all the while. [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Four/s01e04grab03590.jpg It's funny to see the stoic mask slip for a moment.]{{Dead link}}
* Hiroshi Sato's introduction scene, in which he says cheerfully: "[[Brutal Honesty|So, I understand you're dirt poor]]!"
* Poor Tenzin at Tarrlok's banquet.
{{quote|'''Tenzin''': NO! Meelo! That is NOT a toilet! ([[Beat]]) Oh dear...}}
** [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Four/s01e04grab12456.jpg Made even funnier by the looks on every single background character's faces.]{{Dead link}}
* Ikki and Meelo playing in a Satomobile Tarrlok got for Korra.
{{quote|'''Ikki:''' Vroom vroom! Out of the way daddy, we're driving here! Beeeep, beep, beep beep!
'''Meelo:''' (quietly) Beep beep. }}
* Bolin's chipper tone when he tells Korra that "Asami crashed into [Mako] on her moped." Especially since he ''[http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Four/bolinflash.gif appears out of nowhere]''{{Dead link}} just to say this and disappear again.
* Though Korra didn't find it amusing, just try not to laugh at Bolin's imitation of Amon.
{{quote|"I will take away your bending ''forevah''!!"}}
Line 101:
* The opening narration, which seemed to treat the relationships as more important than they had actually been until that point... until you realize that Bryke predicted the shipping wars. And made an episode that would irk ''every one'' of those shippers. [[Trolling Creator]]? Trolling creator.
{{quote|'''Narrator:''' Will love prove to be Korra's most formidable foe yet?}}
* The Fire Ferrets' facial expressions during the group huddle, [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Five/s01e05grab01378.jpg Bolin flashes Korra an over-the-top cheesy loved up grin]{{Dead link}}, [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Five/s01e05grab01396.jpg Korra smiles awkwardly at him]{{Dead link}} before [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Five/s01e05grab01418.jpg flashing the same grin at Mako]{{Dead link}} and [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Five/s01e05grab01436.jpg Mako just looks as confused about everything as he later admits]{{Dead link}}.
* Then there's Bolin attempting to flirt with Korra after [[Sickeningly Sweethearts|Mako and Asami]] leave together.
{{quote|'''Bolin:''' So... Korra. There they go, here we are, all alone in the gym. [[Department of Redundancy Department|Just you and me, two... alone-people... together... alone.]]<br />
Line 108:
** Korra's reaction: "[[Deadpan Snarker|The volcano is starting to make more sense.]]"
** All three girls' reactions to Pema's story about her and Tenzin: A romantic sigh, which Korra quickly stops herself from continuing.
* During the little date montage of Bolin and Korra, one scene has them getting into an impromptu burping contest, which ends in [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Five/s01e05grab10192.jpg one of Korra's belches shaking the rafters (and the "camera").]{{Dead link}} Bolin looks stunned for a millisecond before the two of them burst into hearty laughter. Then the camera pans over to the other restaurant patrons, [https://web.archive.org/web/20120621230743/http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Five/s01e05grab10254.jpg wide-eyed and slackjawed in disbelief].
* [https://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3kczbVsck1qebhrro5_250.gif Bolin catching Korra and Mako kissing] ([[Love Triangle|despite Korra and Bolin having been on a date the previous night]]). [[Sparkling Stream of Tears|The way he cries]], and his [[Girly Run]] with the bouquet of flowers, like a bride who was deserted at the altar, is just hilarious.
* The pro bending announcer working in a mention of their sponsor in the most awkward way imaginable: he draws attention to Bolin vomiting (He's losing his noodles, literally!), then advertising those very same noodles. Even better, they're called [[Continuity Nod|"Flameo Instant Noodles"]].
Line 127:
== [[The Legend of Korra/Recap/B1/E06 And the Winner Is...|And The Winner Is...]] ==
* At the beginning of the episode, the Fire Ferrets practice to some awesome jazz on the radio, which then cuts to commercial for an advertisement for the "Cabbage Corporation." Let that sink in for a moment. The "Cabbage Corporation." The "leading name in technology." Cabbage Man's descendants have become the heads of the most trusted name in technology of this era! Doubles as a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|CMOA]] in that aspect.
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Six/bolinpabutrick.gif Bolin and Pabu's acting performance before the match.]{{Dead link}}
* As Mako protest against the Council to continue the Pro-Bending match, they had to acknowledge an [[Unfortunate Implications|Unfortunate Implication]] and [[Irony]] about Non-Benders and Benders gathering together, in peace, as answered cheerfully by Bolin, "[to watch Benders] beat each other up! In peace!"
* The reaction of Tahno's [[Fan Girl]]s and the Fire Ferrets' fans when Korra beats Tahno in the tiebreaker match.
** The gratuitous slow-mo and replay of Tahno getting a burst of water to the jaw! They had to animate that scene ''twice'' from different angles.
** Tahno's helmet landing in the hands of the Fire Ferret fans, who also [[Cosplay|dressed like the Ferrets.]] The one dressed like Korra catches it.
* Bolin getting Pabu to bite through the ropes by speaking fire ferret.
* The Wolfbats' [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]]-tastic entrance.
** "I'm gonna knock Tahno's ''stupid'' hair off his ''stupid'' head!"
* Shiro commentating in true [[Casual Danger Dialogue]] style after Equalists have appeared in the audience, knocked out the security, the pro-benders, and a chunk of the audience (with electric gloves no less), with [[Oh Crap|a look of terror on his face]]:
Line 148:
** Later:
{{quote|(angry) Oh come on those were illegal head-shots! Open your eye, ref!}}
* In the original airing, a ''Spongebob'' [[Commercial Pop-Up]] comes up [https://web.archive.org/web/20120603191157/http://korravangelist.tumblr.com/post/22926491820/wow-spongebob-youre-a-fucking-asshole-korra at the worst possible time.]
* Possibly unintentional: In the middle of all the Equalists pulling on their masks, the shot of one man pulling his chi-blocking glove out of a bag of popcorn was amusing.
* Shiro raising an eyebrow at one of his own metaphors:
Line 167:
* A curious Korra spying the makeup powder in the bathroom and [[Cosmetic Catastrophe|attempting to powder her face.]] Along with suspenseful music. Seriously, with that music, you would have thought Korra discover something horrifyingly plot-related to the Satos.
* "[[I Need to Go Iron My Dog|I have to air sit, I mean I have to baby bend.]]"
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Seven/s01e07grab04726.jpg The facial reaction on the Butler]{{Dead link}} when Bolin immediately jumps into the pool after drying him.
** Bolin's amusement at being called "Master Bolin", then reminding the butler to not forget "Master Pabu" and then jumping in the water. The whole sequence was one laugh after another.
** After drying "Master Pabu", [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Seven/s01e07grab04688.jpg his fur puffs outward]{{Dead link}}, making him like a ridiciously cute furball (literally).
* Korra inquiring about Asami's plans. Then Bolin responding, "I call makeover!" Then, Mako plummets Bolin in the pool.
* Bolin talking to the Equalists...while flailing the unconscious Tenzin's arms around like a puppet.
Line 175:
* Bolin making Pabu talk in a squeaky high voice, and Pabu making the appropriate gestures and motions to complete the image of him talking.
* Bolin rushing in, desperate for the washrooms, and showing it with about as much decorum as a five-year-old, complete with an embarrassed Mako facepalming in the background.
* {{spoiler|[[Crowning Moment of Awesome|After Asami takes out her father with his own chi-blocker glove, then kicks the Lieutenant's ass easily]]}}, we get a shot of Korra and Mako's reactions. [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Seven/s01e07grab19788.jpg They involve wide eyes and open jaws.]{{Dead link}}
* [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/Snake101/Avatar/Korra/Book%20One/Chapter%20Seven/makosneeze.gif Mako's sneezing act.]{{Dead link}} That is all.

Line 207:
** Additionally, here is Colin Heck's [http://bryankonietzko.tumblr.com/post/23083601845/it-seems-like-on-tumblr-you-cant-reblog-an-answer response to a fan asking for the identity of Lin's father.]
{{quote|*after his rant* Also, Lin's dad is Azula. It's really complicated.}}
* The goofy faces from the first series make their triumphant return. [http://www.csicon.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/tenzin-eye-twitch.gif?ecd0dc Aang taught]{{Dead link}} [http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m12d07WNuS1qeihbqo1_500.gif Tenzin well].
* Know that "bender" is British slang for a gay man (probably why the British version of A:tLA is called Avatar: The Legend of Aang instead). Now listen to everything the Equalists say about "bender oppression". Try to keep a straight face.
** [[Incredibly Lame Pun|"Straight" face]]. Good one.
Line 213:
** For that matter the [http://bryankonietzko.tumblr.com/post/23147508138/ahhh-retakes-if-you-have-been-following-this picture] he made in response to a particularly infamous [[Off-Model|animation error]] that made it into episode 6.
