My once criticism is Irohs actor, he just doesn’t seem to give off the goofy side of Iroh as well as I was hoping to see but maybe that changes as the series goes on.
Thanks for starting this thread, I like an area for specific show discussion, but we're going to need some spoiler rules since the whole thing was dropped all at once.

I'm only 1 episode in as well.

But I do agree with you on the Iroh actor, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee.

I dont want to be overly critical after a single episode, I like him, but he can do better.

The fact that I know he can do better kind of tells me that this is Direction. He's been told to play it this way, but I dont know why. Maybe he grows into it?
