Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender is the obvious ticket this week, and for once the obvious call is the right one — a 9.4 from early audiences is rare air. Moana at 5.9 is strictly a kids-in-the-house situation. Quietly, the best-rated thing in the country is Stuart Fails to Save the Universe on HBO Max — 9.2 from viewers.
