Jake gets grating on the ears, desperately trying to be hip and what the kids'll like. It's strange hearing the voice actor for Prince Zuko say wack and G. I wouldn't really watch it, but I will say it's a lot more tolerable than what we're stuck with nowadays.

The hip speak was probably more tolerable to the younger viewers than the older ones. I was part of the younger half so I just kind of acknowledged it as a norm for how Jake spoke. I didn't really mind the redesign to be honest. I also remember liking Haley. Pigtails are one of my weak spots. I also apologize for lack of pics, everything I found was either too small or of shit resolution.
