I think it's fair to judge the show by the first episode. This is all subjective, of course, but the changes they made to the story and to the universe will tell many fans all they need to know.

They made pretty massive changes. Aang has none of his childlike wonder, he can fly unaided like a Marvel superhero, and he's seemingly now a victim of a joyride gone wrong, rather than the boy who ran away from the world.

And the CGI... it's really rough in my opinion. There are entire scenes like the intro that are clearly 100% computer generated. If they passed that's one thing, but they look really goofy and uncanny.

These are all good reasons to judge the show, and you do see them in that first episode.
