We can finally speak this out loud. Percy Jackson show was not bad because of the casting, it was bad because the script and characterization were very badly handled and misogynist.
The main woman character of the books is stripped of all her interesting character traits and personality, her imperfections and flaws and turned into a one dimensional character where she is completely written off as 'see, here is a powerful girl character!!'. I sometimes forget that a man is writing this show and his maximum thought capacity while writing a powerful female character is to turn her full, emotionless and 'perfect'.
Annabeth was powerful because of her imperfections. She was flawed, she was ambitious , quite impulsive and she usually got ruled by her emotions, she had a child side inside her. She didn't know everything, she made mistakes. This did not take from her character, it added to it. It made her strong. A perfect character is not powerful or girlbosss, she is just flattened and a robot. Her character was destroyed by the script.
Turning Gabe into a a lot less abusive, more likeable and sympathetic version in the show does not only completely crush the full impact of Percy's backstory, it also takes away from Sally's character completely. But they decided to show Athena a much worse parent than she was in the books? Book Athena would never let Annabeth die because she disappointed her. Poseidon however was the best dad ever! While book Poseidon even though he loved Percy, even though he was better than most of the Olympians as a parent, he was a still shit father. He was NOT a good father.
This is very misogynist to me but you are not ready to have this conversation because you refuse to see any real criticism for the show.

Do you ever think about how Thalia had to grow up feeling like she failed her little brother Jason, something that was completely out of her control and yet she felt responsible because she was supposed to protect him. and then Annabeth comes into her life, this little girl, and she becomes her sister. And then something is trying to kill her little sibling again, and so Thalia decides to sacrifice herself again for Annabeth because she won't fail again, she won't let that happen ever again.

Annabeth: DON'T BE SORRY! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT AN ANGEL! YOU TRIED TO HELP US WHICH IS A SWEET MOVE! Percy: You’re yelling nice things at me again and it’s very confusing!
