This is an ongoing review. I will update it as each episode is released and watched. This covers the first episode so far.

Season 2 of the popular Rick Riordan books. This season follows along with the second book, The Sea of Monsters. Percy, Annabeth, and Percy’s new brother must embark on a quest

Dyslexia, Greek mythology, ADHD, heroes, gods, demigods, history, dreams, adoption, quests, Thalia’s tree, Pan,

Language:

There is name-calling (such as loser), which is usually done in a bullying way. “By the gods,” is used. I did not catch any curse words.

Stuff to be aware of: (some of this could be considered spoiler territory, but nothing outside what’s in the book)

Alcohol - D

Gross - Three female characters share an eye. At one point, it pops out and lands in another character’s lap.

Sexuality - A teen boy is seen in his boxers putting his pants on. There is a joke made about Poseidon not being “able to keep his trident to himself.”

Scary - There are multiple mythological creatures and monsters. There are large human-looking monsters that have tusks and are referred to as cannibals. These humanoid creatures are in multiple episodes.

There is a sea monster that is seen multiple times, but only it’s tentacles.

Violence/Gore -

Overall: (Some minor spoiler territory)

Seeing It With Your Family

If you watched the first season, you will find about the same level of violence, scariness, and intensity in the second season.

What I Thought

So far this is a pretty faithful and well-made adaptation of the second book.
