Why you should watch KAOS (2024) on Neftlix:

- Jeff Goldblum as Zeus

- Disabled actors play disabled characters (Mat Fraser & another secret one [because spoilers])

- A trans actor plays a trans character (I won't say which one since it's kind of a spoiler)

- Set in modern times, uses characters from old myths but isn't a simple retelling; it's a whole new story

- All your favs are there (Prometheus, Daedalus, Persephone, Dionysus, Cassandra, Medusa, Charon, Ariadne, the Fates, the Furies, just to name a few)

- Speaking of Persephone, she and Hades are actually in love (the version of the myth which I know much of you love)

- Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss Hera (as in, she literally does all those things)

- The gods' actors' ages actually make sense, they didn't cast solely young people or make young people look older; you've got Zeus (72), Hera (63), Hades (61), Persephone (56), Poseidon (56), Dionysus (27), you get the idea

- Killer soundtrack

- Actual realistic queer characters/representation in a natural, unforced way

- Enjoyable story and comedic but also has depth (I binge-watched it in a day)

- Not a huge commitment (8 episodes of about 50 minutes each)

- Have you ever thought "What would the Ancient Greek gods be doing in modern times?" This show answers that question!

- It wasn't renewed for a second season due to viewership, so if the views explode, maybe they'll renew it and I can find out what happens next (I know it's not likely, but I can dream; besides, if just one person watches and enjoys it, then this post will have been worth it)

all I know is I want Aerion dead bc Egg clearly hates him and he killed that horse for no reason, I don't need to see any further evidence against him. Death penalty.

The Percy Jackson Series Is Great

I have to say I am really enjoying this series you guys. The actors are all doing so well. I know it's not book accurate 100%, but I also haven't read the books since I was like 14. So I still have an outline of what happened but not the details. The plot is still following the same path, and the actors all feel like children (they are lol, but I mean their emotions are a little impulsive and they don't have all the answers).

And since this is in TV format we get so much more depth from the world, because we are not just experiencing everything through Percy's eyes and thoughts, but a more rounded cast. Because he is the main character but every one of those kids are important.

Also I am watching it with my fiance and he has never read the series before, so this is his first time experiencing everything, and getting to see him watch it makes me so happy. He genuinely likes the show and thinks it's great.

Overall I'm at like a 9/10, but only because I wish the episodes were longer, but I am just greedy like that.

“Byler is real!!” I scream into the microphone. The crowd boos. Tomatoes are thrown. But then there’s a voice, from the back: “No, she’s right.”

The crowd parts. The lights turn on and it’s him.

post vol 2 edit: nevermind lmfao fuck him

Being in fandom as a woc is so hard because you see characters like yourself villainized for having justifiable reactions to deeply traumatic and scarring life events while white men receive "redemption arcs" despite being racist psychopaths

Part of me wishes I could bring myself to believe in conformitygate, but I just can’t. Divorcegate on the other hand… that’s something I can 100% believe.

[scrolling-forever]

the parallels between the stranger thing conformity gate/ missing volume 2 and the secret extra Sherlock episode are making me feel like an old wise man trying to warn the adventurers of a great peril

[narrativelogicofbyler]

speaking as someone with a ba hons degree in television studies, and someone who has spent an embarrassing number of hours dissecting narrative structure, visual motifs, and authorial intent, CONFORMITYGATE is a genuinely fantastic theory. it’s cohesive, it’s textually supported, it understands the show’s internal logic better than the show often understands itself. the thematic through lines? airtight. the symbolic resonance? honestly stronger than half the published scholarship I had to read at uni.

but here’s the problem: the duffer brothers simply do not operate with that level of intentionality. they don’t build long term thematic scaffolding; they don’t plant multi season semiotic payoffs; they stumble into compelling imagery. and I’m saying this because the more interviews they give, the clearer it becomes that they don’t actually care about the show on a craft level. they care about nostalgia, vibes, and the idea of being ‘genre guys,’ but not the discipline that makes genre storytelling work.

the duffers are openly contradicting their own text, shrugging off major character arcs, and talking about the show like it’s a toy they have got bored of. it’s hard to watch volume 2 and the finale, with their rushed execution and baffling priorities, and not see creators who have mentally checked out of their own narrative.

so yes, CONFORMITYGATE is brilliant. it’s just brilliant in the way fan theory often is: the audience doing the intellectual and emotional labour the creators didn’t bother to do. and honestly? that’s part of the beauty of television as a medium. the text becomes richer because viewers are more intentional, more observant, and frankly more invested than the people writing it.

The byler post-canon fanfictions are going to be so good. The fix-it fics are going to be so good. The canon divergence fics are going to be so good. When fucking netflix and their writers and execs don't got me at least ao3's got me.
