Netflix’s live-action Avatar has its heart in the right place, but its pacing and uneven performances leave a lot to be desired.

Same runtime maybe, but not the same pace. Would you have them just switch from one story to another a third of the way through the episode?
Lots of animated shows do that, though they only usually have two stories due to shorter runtimes
That’s more because they have an allotted time slot on their TV network. Like Nickelodeon gave Spongebob 22 minutes per episode but they only wanted to write 10 minute episodes, so they did 2 per episode. That’s not really relevant on a streaming service where they have total control over the episode pacing. They can even do weird stuff like having different episodes in a series run for different durations.
Not possible if the stories follow the same characters and are sequential.
Run the stories at the same time, plenty of tv shows do that
