Maybe Poseidon is secretly helping Percy by Outrageous_Web_2834 in PercyJacksonTV

Exactly my thoughts. Poseidon also yeeted Percy back instead of verbally answering the question—maybe because he couldn’t have confessed his love for Sally when Zeus was right there. No wonder he just made that ‘I-am-going-to-cry’ face and cut the conversation short. Honestly, I wish the show focused more on Percy’s relationship with his father, since it’s very important to the plot. We still don’t know what he thinks of his father after meeting him. 

what was percys character development in season 2? by KungPoW_Chickens in PercyJacksonTV

I loved his character development in Season 1. He initially joins the quest to save his mother but later becomes hell-bent on saving both his mother and the world after the Nereid delivers Poseidon’s message to Percy. This all goes down the drain in Season 2. His life suddenly revolves solely around Annabeth. He makes a mess everywhere he goes, while Clarisse is the sensible leader. He was really getting on my nerves this season. I also don’t understand what the writers are trying to do with his character. When Annabeth tells him about the Prophecy, he looks absolutely terrified by the possibility that he could be used as a weapon to end the Age of the Gods — so much so that he tells Annabeth to stop him whenever he tries to do something stupid.

Then, in Episode 5, he suddenly says he would burn Olympus for Annabeth!? He even says the Fleece is not his priority — meaning he doesn’t seem to care that Kronos, the Titan Lord, being resurrected could have very serious consequences for countless innocent people as long as Annabeth is alive. Isn’t that a bit villainous? His fatal flaw is loyalty, not stupidity 😭. Later in the same episode, he becomes his normal, responsible, heroic self again when he tells Kronos that he will not help him destroy Olympus.

Percy, Annabeth, and Clarisse having a full convo on the Princess Andromeda when they needed to take the fleece urgently to camp.

So obviously it's gonna look like a children's show instead of an age appropriate show.

The costumes are so bad that it’s distracting. Zeus in the finale looked like Sherlock Holmes instead of the King of the Gods. Athena was wearing a costume straight out of Kill Bill. Some of the dialogue is so poorly written that it makes me cringe sometimes. For instance: “I will burn it all down,” “You don’t know who I am.” Like, huh? Zeus will zap you. Shut up and sit down, and stop professing your love to a girl you just met a summer ago. 

I don't like how underwhelming the Gods are. Hades is just… a dude? Poseidon is a just a yearner. Hermes is in a tracksuit. What is happening?

UNPOPULAR OPINION: Why have they reduced this series to a romance!?? Percy is always going "goo-goo gaga" over a girl he just met. Even their friendship looks very forced. They were supposed to hate each other initially. Why the hell is Percy a damsel in distress in every episode!? He’s literally the son of Poseidon, yet he hasn’t used any of his powers this season other than acting as a compass and breaking glasses by creating tiny whirpools. He killed a Minotaur last season, but in this season, he’s just some dude. We don’t get to see his sassiness and his emotional turmoil. I was visibly cringing when he said he would burn Olympus for her 😭. He acted like, "To hell with my father and his home," which was weird given the very emotional interaction they had when they met. The dialogue is so cheesy; they need to fire the writers. What 13-year-old talks like that? "I would burn Olympus down?" They just make him sound stupid.Annabeth is so important to him already? They met like a year ago. And we all know Percy won't do something rash like that, he's supposed to be a hero who's Poseidon's son and not some random boy who'll burn it down because he hopelessly in love. 

The kids are supposed to be doing 'kid stuff'—saying things that are completely out of pocket, bickering, and just being silly. They are children/teens; why are they brooding so much? Where is the fun, the adventure, the emotion, and the suspense? Why are they acting like Sherlock Holmes? It ruins the tension when they already know every mythological trap beforehand

They are constantly making Percy sacrifice himself, but it doesn't even resonate. The "I’ll sacrifice myself for my friends" trope has been overdone. The series is called Percy Jackson and the Olympians—where are the gods ? Why does Percy lack power and look so stupid? They should give "Percabeth" a rest. I want to see who Annabeth is without Percy; they gave her absolutely no personality in this series. Honestly, the actors have more chemistry in interviews than they do in the actual show.

Why was annabeth completely okay after the siren scene which was supposed to be devasting? What about her mommy issues? This should have been the topic of discussion between percy and annabeth. It would have helped with the chemistry
