Greg Alba & Tara Erickson dive into the Disney+ adaptation of Rick Riordan’s bestselling series Percy Jackson and the Olympians as we follow Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), Annabeth Chase (Leah Jeffries), and Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) through the opening episodes: “I Accidentally Vaporize My Pre-Algebra Teacher” and “I Become Supreme Lord of the Bathroom.” We revisit every major moment — Percy’s discovery that he’s a demigod, the attack from Mrs. Dodds / the Fury (Alecto), the Minotaur battle, Sally Jackson’s disappearance, Grover revealing his true identity as a satyr, Percy’s arrival at Camp Half-Blood, his first encounter with Chiron, Mr. D, the centaurs, the cabins, the Capture-the-Flag scene, and the emerging threat from the gods of Olympus. We also highlight the iconic creatures and monsters featured in Episodes 1 & 2: Fury (Alecto), Minotaur, Hellhound tease, and hints of Olympus rising. We break down changes from the books, character dynamics, early foreshadowing for the Lightning Thief arc, how this adaptation sets up Percy Jackson Season 2, and why Disney+ is treating this series as a major tentpole. Whether you’re searching for Percy Jackson Disney Plus reaction, Percy Jackson episodes explained, Minotaur fight breakdown, or Percy Jackson Season 2 predictions, this video covers mythology, monsters, friendships, powers, and every big moment from the first two episodes.

This week's videos are sponsored by Price Picks, the easy to use fantasy sports betting app. More on them in just a bit. Tara, you ready to rock and roll? I'm ready to rock and roll. Let's break you go. What is this about?
Starting point is 00:01:48 Well, ladies and gentlemen, we just watched the first two episodes of Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Tara and I have watched on this channel the first movie It's called Lightning Thief. The second one, Sea of Monsters.
Starting point is 00:02:03 I remember really hating that movie. That was my experience with that. And now we're here quite some time later. Some familiarity coming back into the Noggin. Got some thoughts. A little bit of prose, a little bit of cons. But Tara, I want to hear your thoughts first. What's your overall feeling on this matter?
Starting point is 00:02:26 Your honest feeling as you're starting this job. journey. I actually really like it. I like the casting. I believe our lead kid. I think I believe all of the acting, which is great. And I actually really like the writing. I mean, you know, in the reaction, I call it out a couple of times. And I think that the way that they're doing exposition is obviously, you know, he's asking a lot of questions, but it doesn't feel like, oh God, I had to fit this in. I think they did it the right way. And I actually think that the pacing of this show,
Starting point is 00:02:58 It's done really well. Like it doesn't feel like, oh, God, it's dragging. Like, we get that they're going to have to do this thing. They're adding a little, you know, surprise moments and when conversations need to happen, it doesn't feel like they're dragging it out, which I very much appreciate. So I'm actually having a lot of fun with it. All right. All right.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Cool. Cool. I feel like I can see this being an improvement upon the movie. I'm kind of surprised by how much it feels like the movie. movie. I don't know why. It's like a better pace version of it. It's a more believable version of it. I remember a lot of the events and stuff and even like the look
Starting point is 00:03:40 is it feels looks like the film but more polished and perhaps the movie was a bit more accurate because I was going into this as oh this will be the incredibly you know more accurate depiction of the novel you know. And I'm recalling some differences already off the bat. So it's taking my brain a little bit of time to fully detach from
Starting point is 00:04:04 the pre-existing knowledge of the film and take it on its own merits. But for our first couple chapters, I think it's a pretty good start. The cast is pretty good. I like seeing the camp world. It has a nice blend of feeling like an actual camp that kids go to school with.
Starting point is 00:04:24 That's something that I like about the vibe of the show. With the movie, I associate them as young adult actors playing teens, and I really feel like I'm watching kids. Yeah. Which is important for characters who are supposed to be children or at least look like children, you know. And that side of it is really enjoyable to me. The effects are very good. The overall way it's shot is really good, too. There's parts of the pacing that I feel like could improve, though.
Starting point is 00:04:53 I'm not quite sure what that's slowly. that I would like to be implemented would be, but there are times where I do feel like it should pick up some rhythm. It should pick up some pacing because there's a lot of like slowing down to explain stuff. And then we'll get some like random visuals and action scenes, but it all seems to be breathing from the same pace. And it doesn't ever really feel like it's kind of escalating above the one line. And that's the element that I feel like it could use a little bit,
Starting point is 00:05:27 of strengthening on for the first couple episodes though I think it's a really good first couple episodes though you know like it's strong yeah it's out right now but you're right like anytime he talked to Kyron and like
Starting point is 00:05:40 you know Jason whatever he played like was off of his dad who pretended to be his dad that to me felt like ah this could have gone a lot faster and also weird that we didn't actually get to see the fun stuff that Grover
Starting point is 00:05:57 walked into. He just came back to be like, I got news. Your mom's alive. Remember the whole setup? We're like, I wanted to see what was going on over there. That was cool. Yeah, well, this is setting up the adventure. The real adventure is the quest that he's going to go on. Yeah. And in that quest,
Starting point is 00:06:13 we're going to get a bunch of different characters. We're going to probably get the return of that Mrs. Dodds played by. What is that actor's name from Will & Grace? Oh, yeah. Karen. Megan. No, no, no. Megan Malali. Yeah. It took me. It did take me a little bit of time to
Starting point is 00:06:28 yeah she's great who she is yeah you know and I'm waiting to see how the chemistry unfolds with people too like I like the inverse of bullying as well you know you kind of expect this Luke guy to be the bully ends up not being the bully
Starting point is 00:06:42 kind of star athlete who takes a liking and there's a kinship that forms the motivation that Percy takes on from the death of his mother as well as that's like permitting through his soul. There's a natural sadness to this kid that I enjoy
Starting point is 00:07:00 watching. Yeah. There is. You could see it in his eyes. Yeah. Yeah. That he's caring a lot, especially in him being unclaimed and that was the one thing he really wanted to know from Luke. Are you also unclaimed and like, no, you know? And now he, it might be
Starting point is 00:07:16 a little lonely if he has to live in the house, Poseidon house all alone. Like, and right now I'm kind of waiting for more of these characters to sort of leap off the screen. Yeah, I get that. Like everyone's doing a really good job.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Every actor's doing a good job. But I am sort of waiting for some type of oom for a special excitement about a certain character in the way they're being portrayed or the way the performance is going down. Because right now everyone is like doing a serviceable job. Yeah, it's like neutrally good. Yeah, but no one's really like standing out as a true like strong performer yet. to me or something with the personality. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Like when you compare it, if you do compare it to the movie, which I'm sure people probably hate me doing. Like the headmaster of the centaur was like Pierce Brosnan. Totally. So that provides like a real freaking presence. Yeah. And Grover, I like. So funny.
Starting point is 00:08:13 I like Grover as the, he's more of a comedic relief in the movie. And he is louder, I would say, or something. And a strong personality, like what you're saying. Like Grover, we remember that, hey, he was very funny. Yeah, yeah. And I'm kind of waiting for that to be, to really sing for anyone here. Because I'm liking the acting. Again, it feels more believable.
Starting point is 00:08:36 It's less goofy, which I really like. You know, if I'm going to be attached to a show, I want to see if they can make this larger-than-life world feel grounded enough where I can buy into its own version of reality. And so everyone's doing a really good job. And overall, the caption is doing really good. But, yeah, there are some stuff. Like Jason Manzoukis, Mr. D stands out as a certain type of personality.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm waiting for more of that to shine through. So when you get the dynamic of the three, when they're going on their adventure, I feel like that chemistry is going to be very integral to how the rest of this show ends up feeling overall. Yeah, because if it's not, if it's not popping or doesn't feel super important and grounded and, like, also exciting at the same time, then if we have to follow them. for a while it's not going to be as much fun exactly exactly
Starting point is 00:09:28 and I also like some more the you know supernatural horror blemishes that this show has yeah that's a spooky guy have some real spooky things going on here yeah they do and I appreciate
Starting point is 00:09:42 the way it's reserving showing us a lot of the gods right now that we know we will get like in the movie they start off with the gods and I appreciate them dialing it back and thrusting you so like primarily into percy jackson's perspective yeah the way how he's taking in the information the way he's learning about it he doesn't learn about it with like cuttoes of gods or
Starting point is 00:10:07 flashbacks of gods he's learning about it just through dialogue the way we the way we would yeah yeah there's a they're doing a really good job with thrusting you into his pov sometimes they break away from his pov to look at other characters but more often than not it's solely his POV. So overall, enjoying the show. I'm excited to see what more we have in store. In the meantime, Tara, we got some Royal Reject questions. Ready to do it? Let's go.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Want to read the first one? Yeah, sure. Andrew Nickerson. Hey, Terran, Greg. I had a hard time getting used to Walker Scobalus, Percy Jackson. How do you like the casting choices? Do you think they're right for their respective roles? Huh. I didn't really have a hard time getting used to him. Well, you did say, is he playing, like, neurodivergent?
Starting point is 00:10:57 And then I was like, wait, I have to pay attention. And then I was like, no, but maybe? I don't know. It's the way how he responds to certain things. Like, even when he saw his mom die, there was a... There wasn't much there. It wasn't like an emptiness. No.
Starting point is 00:11:16 It was a difficult... It's a difficult to express emotion thing. Yeah. Yeah, and I'm wondering, is he just a bad actor in that regard? Oh, really? I don't feel like he is. I don't think he is. Like, I don't think he is.
Starting point is 00:11:30 I can't really saying. And, like, yeah, he's not as emotionally, I guess, fluid in that way. He seems like a character. And he could just be a traumatized kid who has a hard time expressing his emotions. Yeah. But that's a big part of his portrayal that I'm finding really interesting is, you know, like Percy Jackson in the movie seems like he's got all this. shit and he's the coolest guy in the world and he gets everything done and he's just like the special of the special of the specials and i like how he has a real struggle i i appreciate his performance
Starting point is 00:12:00 there's there's something there that feels like a a human yeah i know what it's like to be a young boy who has a hard time expressing his emotions and comes across a little socially awkward and detached yeah so i feel like i'm see that's what i'm seeing and it seems very intentional in the performance so no i think he's doing a good job oh i agree I definitely don't have a hard time getting used to, not for me. I feel like he has to grow a little bit more into the role as the story progresses. Yeah. Then we'll really see if he's up to the challenge of the more bigger, the more big emotional scenes or whatever, you know?
Starting point is 00:12:35 Yeah. This episode's brought to you by Prize Picks, the app that made me finally understand my wife's obsession with fantasy sports. She's been obsessed with fantasy sports the entire time I've known her. And I'll be honest, I would sometimes zone out whenever she would talk stats. She'd kill me for a minute of that recorded. But until now, now I get it. Because price picks makes it simple and fun. And no, it's not gambling.
Starting point is 00:13:03 It's daily fantasy sports. You're not betting against other people or the house. It's just you versus your predictions. You pick more or less on two-player stats. Like, will Steph Curry hit more than five threes tonight? Or will Patrick Mahomes throw less than three T-Ds that's touchdown? for you un-initiated. And if you're right, you get paid.

A big reason the author Rick Ryderden created this series
Starting point is 00:14:01 was to help his son who has ADHD and dyslexia have a character that looks like him in the books. What do you think of this series as it relates to the current trend in Hollywood to shy away from diversity? I became a different question. to shy away from diversity and inclusivity. Wait, what do you think of the series as it relates to the current trend in Hollywood to shy?
Starting point is 00:14:25 Okay, Manny, what I will say is that I don't think Hollywood has shied away from it. To me, they've swung into it at least the last like eight years. Like, this is going to seem weird coming from me. I am a white girl with brunette hair. I don't book a lot, but the people that I do see who book are, diverse and it seems they're inclusive like LGBTQ or their Asian or different you know ethnicity seem to be booking more so I actually don't think that but maybe I could be wrong I don't I think we're going in the other direction yeah I'm not really sure on this question well Hollywood is at a
Starting point is 00:15:10 weird crossroads because they were swinging really hard towards that direction yes it but in the past year and a half, there's been a lot more studios being like, if it's woke, no, let's not. Let's go back. Let's go back. Yeah. And they don't really understand balance or just do what's best for the story. And more often than not, the leading character, still a white guy and surrounded by a bunch of different ethnicities, just like this show. Yeah, yeah, totally. You're actually right about that. It's usually what it is. I don't mind diversity and inclusivity. I don't really i make i make jokes about it but it's not something that distracts me i grew up in california like i was in the same class of 30 kids in first eighth grade and we were
Starting point is 00:15:53 a whole bunch of different ethnicities yeah all of us are you know so i'm not really i don't really notice it in a way that's like what the hell's going on in this movie i thought your question was going to lean more into this idea of are they using actors who actually have ADHD and dyslexia right but at that point i don't really No, I like the diversity that this show is having. You got all kinds of ethnicities on screen here. So everyone's being represented, and I don't really give a shit if people have a problem with that.
Starting point is 00:16:26 It's not, it doesn't, the animath character is not going up here being like, you don't know the struggles of a black girl. Yeah. She's just show it up, and she happens to be a black girl. She's there. Yeah. Yeah, we just got to add in some gay people. Yeah, it's getting more gays in here, man.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Come on now. Just just get, swing them in. You know the gods love to have them gay times. Yeah. Come on, man. Especially back then, the Greek guy. Oh, yeah, dude. They were gaying it up all the time.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Oh, yeah, they were juicing it, for sure. For sure, for sure. How do you feel about the trope of characters who will, of the, you know, having disability? Yeah, the word disability sounds like an offensive word now, doesn't it? As someone with ADHD. Like candy capable. Is that the new friendly word?
Starting point is 00:17:15 I feel like, yeah, they're handy capable. Yeah, so to have that, like taking the word of disability and make it ability. Right. How do you like that interpretation? Movies and shows will often do that. You mean, like, in here of him have, with the ADHD and the dyslexia? That's like a lot of these characters, apparently, in this world, they're supposed to be reflective of that. And Percy's embodiment of that.
Starting point is 00:17:40 I actually really like that, because if we're talking about, from back in the day, nobody really knew. ADD, ADHD, dyslexia. It was like you, it was like embarrassing for people. And I forget with the third thing that Luke said, but I was like, oh yeah, that feels like it's everybody now on a certain spectrum has some parts of this that now people aren't like, I guess, embarrassed to say
Starting point is 00:18:06 that they have it. And I like that if there are kids, which I assume there's tons, watching this show, and if they look at it and they go, oh, my God, when I open a book, the words look like that to them, then that's a good representation, I think, on camera and in a fun show for them to be represented as a demigod where, like, they're making them, like, badass, which I like.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Yeah. Fair enough. Fair enough. Let's hop around a little bit here. Let's go to Tori Jerry. Read it, Tara. The first Percy Jackson movie cut Clarice's character out completely and used Annabeth in her place for scenes like Capture the Flag. How do you feel about her?
Starting point is 00:18:42 Addition. Corrice is the bully. Okay. Okay. I'd like you for the sole purpose that it is a female bully. Yeah. I don't really feel like we see that too often, especially even on the physical front as well. Oh, not at all.
Starting point is 00:19:00 But is Annabeth the bully or is Annabeth the disappearing girl? Annabeth is the disappearing girl. That's okay. Okay. So in the movie that was played by Alexandra Dadario. Okay. And I remember in the scene in the movie at the lake, she's the one who's, like, fighting with Percy. So they kind of combined both of them.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Oh, yeah. Okay. But Clarice isn't in the movie. And again, that's a character, though, that when watching this, there's a lot of the intention I appreciate of, again, having a female bully. It's kind of cool to witness. For sure. And they're hinting at more backstory for her, like when the Spears broke. and she screams no yeah there's something tragic I'm sure she's a bully for for reasons so many reasons yeah that we'll probably unpack it will humanize her hurt people but right now it is feeling a little two-dimensional on the way the portrayal is just feels like typical bully with typical motivation and typical lines yeah where it's like basically not motivation or she's like I don't actually want to kill him but she wants to like you know bug him yeah
Starting point is 00:20:10 Yes, yes. I said earlier that sometimes I watch shows and I could see the sides and what sides are is what actors are giving and auditions. Yeah. To read. Here's the lines that you have. And sometimes I see like the audition scene. Yeah, totally. And there are times with her where I feel like that's what I'm saying. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Yeah, totally. I feel like you can see a little bit with Annabeth too with, you know, her appearance here in this second where she. finally shows up in the second episode. I do like her addition to it. I like that she's looking for the demigod to basically, you know, she's kept an eye out and she's failed plenty of times in finding that person. Obviously, it's Percy for us. But again, for Tori and other people have, like, read the books or watched the movies
Starting point is 00:21:04 as gazillion times and remember everything. I'm probably not the best one to come to you to be like, how do you really feel about it? Because I'm like, well, I don't, I wouldn't be the person who would feel really strongly about it anyway. So, but I liked her. I thought she was good and very, really grounded, very believable. That is one thing that I do like about all the actors,
Starting point is 00:21:30 whether it feels like it's dragging or too expositioning or too tropey of like, of course, that's how a bully would respond or blah, blah, blah. Thank God they're all, it's all still very believable. Definitely. I would 100% echo your statements there. Bree Garcia. I really love how they,
Starting point is 00:21:48 how much they tried to make up for the movie adaptations with the series. Rick Ryarden worked on it firsthand to help it be truer to the source material. Oh. Is there a book adaptation you'd like to see read done as a series to maintain the integrity of the plot better? I don't read. I don't really know any books that require more. I'm reading, I'm almost, I'm like a third of the way through Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:22:14 It's not as exhilarating as I hoped. I've never watched Frankenstein. But there is one book that I don't think they've made a movie or even a series of the name of the wind. Great. It's the first book. The second is, I forget the title right now. I'm reading it. The name of the wind.
Starting point is 00:22:37 The next one is something. thing. I'm reading it. It's a thicky. Okay. It's a thicky. I forget the title. Great books, though. That'd be cool to see it to be done. Yeah, I should have preview this question beforehand. I don't really have an answer for you, honestly. I'm hoping the Harry Potter show is able to do more of those accuracies. Even though I haven't read the books. It would be cool to, you know, watch and go, I wonder if this is more accurate. So that's that. Sorry, what you're good at? I wish we could have more substance there, but not today. Oh, my God. You read Chelsea Collins. Chelsea Collins.
Starting point is 00:23:08 How are you doing? I'm from Texas. I enjoy your videos when I'm working or just bored. Y'all make me laugh. Love that. Who's your favorite Greek mythology, mythological character? I would say mine is all of them,
Starting point is 00:23:20 but I relate the most to Medusa. She is vastly misunderstood. Oh, we're on a roll here with questions that I can't really answer. I don't, you know, who is the woman who's cool? Venus? She's like the sexy one.
Starting point is 00:23:37 okay i think maybe i'll just go with her because i just like yeah her what greek god is most likely to constantly seek validation relies on humor to be liked we're going to have the same greek god aspiring artists never feels good enough exactly it'll and anything they do will never be it up let's find out yeah okay let's see see what tarot i are oh it's so good that is like answer the question for us a i why is it not answering why is you take it oh because you're oh no it's yeah let's ask google google's be faster yeah well what the heck is going on there come on google
Starting point is 00:24:29 okay he it looks like hepatitis hepatitis and dynasis that's mr day no the perform her relies on humor. Hey. Dionysics, we would be that. God of wine, revelry, theater,
Starting point is 00:24:42 and ecstatic dance off music persona related to, hey, that sounds more like us. Go be, go be, go be. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:24:47 that's hepatitis guy is is fast, an artist in blacks with us on us. No, we're definitely, yeah,
Starting point is 00:24:51 oh yeah. Well, I do a little DIY, so I've got a little bit of that. Okay? Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:59 A little bit of the help. Congratulations. You have succeeded. I don't know if it's A, B, or C, but I've got it. You've done it. Yep.
Starting point is 00:25:04 congratulations i have all right uh let's see let's get a couple more in here i am say a j love i'm so ready to watch you guys dive into percy jackson percy jackson is one of the y a book series that dominated my middle school life what greek myth is your favorite oh i don't know my favorite is hercules labor why do you guys know so much about greek gods Why do you think Tara and I would be the ones to know? Do we look like John or Coy? Come on now. Yeah, I don't know.
