During its broadcasting on Nickelodeon between February 2005 and July 2008, Konietzko and DiMartino’s Avatar: The Last Airbender, brought in high accolades from audiences and critics alike. During its run, the series, which used both anime and conventional animation to tell its story, won Annie, Genesis, Primetime Emmy, and Peabody awards. The renowned vocal cast included the talents of: Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter), Mae Whitman (Scott Pilgrim vs. The World), Jack DeSena (All That, Grounded for Life), Dee Bradley Baker (SpongeBob SquarePants), Mark Hamill (Star Wars franchise), and Basco (Hook).
