Legend of Korra - Book 2 Trailer Sneak Peak Commercial from Nickelodeon

After several disappointment and angry reactions from false alarms, Nickelodeon has finally given the Legend of Korra fandom something too look forward too.

Earlier, Nick released a commercial video campaign, advertising their upcoming schedule. In the commercial, they presented several short clips of shows and urged viewers to tune in all next week, claiming to show sneak-peaks and exclusives.

Along with many other shows in the video, Legend of Korra's season 2/book 2 had it's nice little 2 second spot. You can view the trailer below!

Also, make sure to be watching Nick next week because the exclusives begin at 4/3 PM central. I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's the first time I'm actually looking forward to commercials...

Legend of Korra Book 2 Scene - Color Correction of Lemur

It looks like Bryan Konietzko is hinting some signs of some type of lemur returning to Book 2 of Legend of Korra. He shared this color correction scene on his Tumblr, giving the fans a little taste of season 2 of LOK, like he is known to do.

It would be great to have a lemur back in Legend of Korra's next season. They are awesome creatures, as I'm sure you all know. While the picture is obviously not momo, it is definetly a lemur.
