Basically this video summarized my opinion about the series, I hope they change the negative things from the first season in the second (and apparently this will happen because the guy who wrote the script for the last episode will be showrunner in the second season, and he wrote the best episode of the season so maybe that's a good sign?)
From the second season onwards, they have to jump in head first and go further with acting, CGI, script, etc.

That said, the show's theme song is pretty good. Sometimes I catch myself singing along to the song while I wash my dishes 😂

wow can you tell who my favorite character is 😳😂

[@devisreetamirisa]

I watched this show without reading the books and I loved it!! and it has encouraged me to read the books as well. But i did not feel the betrayal at the end of the season...Luke, Annabeth and Thalia's relationship could have been more developed tho🤷‍♀

I'm glad that it brought you to the books! Also i'm glad the show did still work for people who didn't have that context
