Percy Jackson and the
Olympians: I typically only subscribed to Disney whenever
a Marvel and/or Star Wars show was on, but I am now getting it for free so I was
able to catch up on this show. I never
read the books, but saw the movie. It
seems like they are taking 10-15 minute scenes from the movie and turning them
into 35-45 minute episodes, just with actual children instead of casting adults
to play teenagers. This show really
could have used some Daddario because the kids are kind of annoying, especially
the titular character. At least some of
the Gods are fun. Jason Mantzoukus as Dionysus
is one of the most inspired casting choices.
Professional wrestler Edge as Ares is another on the nose casting choice
that worked. Shame they did not get Daddario
to be Medusa. Oh well.
La Brea: So Eve was lost to time last season (how gullible
do you have to be to believe she just happened to still be in the same time
being held by whoever those evil people are), Josh and Riley are also in some
TBD time (why were they so certain they are going to a place with a hospital) and
Ty somehow warped to two weeks before the show began. What a wild start.
Fargo: YMCA
as the soundtrack to the militia rounding up certainly was an inspired choice. But I do wonder how the weirdo was able to
enter the farm undetected with another person, but Dot, whom I have to assume
knows the farm, could not sneak out undetected.
The Challenge: Battle
for a New Challenge: Can we just end
Chaos already? It has been a full month
since anyone went home. We at still have
at least CT left for the Champs. It seems like
Monarch: Legacy of Monsters:
If they needed the ball to get home, how
exactly did young Kurt Russell get home?
Will he not be able to get home the same way now? Sigh.
This was a failed experiment; hopefully they do not do any more of
this. Just stick to the mildly entertaining
movies.
