I really think he's just blocking a pathway that blocks the bending. The way Aang did it, he held a hand on the forehead and heart. Thus he took the source of all the power, a strong mind and a strong heart.
But...he...he touched the forehead and neck. So I'm guessing all he is doing is blocking the flow of energy...right?

That makes sense, which means that if he could use pressure points to block it, someone could learn to UNblock it.

Well that's exactly what Chi Blocking does but the effects are only temporary. Remember they felt weak, out of energy, and couldn't bend not to mention, will probably NEVER bend again. If it was as simple is blocking then later learning to unblock it, he would have people specialized in that working on him...then again they have him prisoner. (DID they let him go? I dunno.)
But unless it really IS a form of chiblocking that prevents bending period then like Hamster said it can be unblocked.
(I should mention if he was hitting pressure points wouldn't he just do "HIT HIT" not 'Hold'? )

It's the way he did it that makes me question how permanent it really is. Maybe he knows how to permanently damage the flow, and that's why he has to hold so long, rather than just simply "hitting" those points.

I now have the free time to watch this with my family. No one but me knows about it, so I'm going to surprise them!
Everyone loved the original Avatar - I'm also glad everyone here likes it as well.
My question is has there only been 3 episodes now? I'm currently looking at the Nick Website, where they have the full episodes.

So far there's only 3 episodes, yes. An Avatar-loving family? Sounds awesome. xD
I still have to get a friend of mine to return my Book 2 set...

Maybe. Lets put a pin in this part of the discussion and when more information arises we can further discuss it. There are just too many unknowns right now.
Anyone else looking forward to this Saturday's episode?

Of course! Maybe this week I'll actually be able to wake up in time to watch it so I won't have to find it online...

They show it like 5 times a day before the day is over. I missed it at 11 and caught it around...10ish(PM)? Just check the TV guide.

I'm interested in that new female character that seems to keep popping up on my dash.
This woman:

dasdsasad. Just watched all 3 episodes last night.
It's soooo good. Can't wait for more episodes.
Also, did everyone else except Katara die? &Mako reminds me so much of Zuko
