Every Mythical Inaccuracy in Blood of Zeus Season 1 

Dude, don't take better help sponsorships if you read the fine print they admit they they do not check any of their "therapist" for actual licenses and that you can't sue them if you get a fake therapist that diagnoses you and ruins your life due to the medication they recommended hurting you.

Mythology guy do you know that there's a comic book depiction of greek mythology

​@@cyrian2591this dude is right please dont take any sponsors from them

Upper Echelon did a full doc on how bad better help is please check it out for details and sources

When is the Norse GOW inaccuracies

It's not, though. Zeus is many things, but definitely not stupid. He's said to be smarter than all of the other deities and humanity as well by Hesiodos.

@@Dice_roller Intelligence doesn't mean you can remember the name of hundreds of spawnlings. You can be smart and still be bad with names, especially if you're dealing with hundreds of different people. I speak as someone with an IQ of 139, that took 6 months to learn the name of the guy who sat next to me in a club that only had 5 other members and still doesn't know the names of half the names of the people in the club I manage now even though it's only 12 people. Also, considering Zeus's track record for doing spectacularly dumb things on a regular basis, I question Hesiodos' sincerity on the subject. I'd be inclined to give the title of smartest god in the Greek pantheon to a more rational diety like Athena or Prometheus. And again, even if he really is the smartest, it's not like he's the god of memory, so expecting to remember the names of his hundreds of kids is asking a bit much of him I think.

@@Dice_roller Being smart doesn't make you good at remembering names. Considering Zeus probably would needed to memorize all the immortal's names, and the monsters, I would not be surprised if he messed up the names of some.

@@oceanmythjormundgandr3891 though considering Heracles is one of his more distinguished kids, it doesn’t make much sense

@@Dice_rollerAthena???

“Oh that Zeus!” *50s sitcom music plays*

​@@TheMythologyGuy1 f.r.i.e.n.d.s but greek gods and incest is a common appearance yeah it was cancelled pretty quick

atleast he should not call him Jesus or Lord Ganesha

​@@genesismultiverse4896wait it's a real thing??? Sounds like my show. Friends is boring lmao.

Greek mythology came before norse mythology

Hugin and Munin really getting stolen

Helios

@@sifthead7720helios is said to have died in this story alongside the other titans so it’s really up to those two horses to rotate around the earth Though plot twist: artemis is leading those two horses as spare

When I first watched season 1 years ago, I honestly thought Hades might not be a villain instead offering a bogus task to taunt the doomed Seraphim, but from what I've heard about Season 2 apparently I gave the writers too much credit.

I’ve mentioned it once before, but if they somehow wanted to make the usage of Hercules somehow accurate to mythology, they would’ve made it so that Hercules kept it because of his trauma from Hera and refusing to be named “Glory of Hera”, since that didn’t exactly save him from her wrath. Then again, he didn’t decide on the name of Heracles in the first place. It would be inaccurate in name, but much more accurate than Hades being a main villain. Hades is far from a nice guy, but there are better candidates for main villains from Greek Mythology.

@@Larper64 That's a pretty unfair take, Hades is not a villain in season 2 he's an antagonist. And if we are being completely honest he gets more screen time than Heron, and that kind of makes him more of a protagonist than anything else.

@@phantomarceus6387 I haven't watched season 2 yet, I just heard from people that he was the new villain. I need to get around to watching it, but hearing he's the villain turned me off from it somewhat. Based on what you said I might check it out sooner than later.

@@Larper64 Ah ok, yeah I'd definitely give it a watch. It's a lot more sympathetic to him than most modern stories, and does a good job to not portray him as evil.

That actually sounds like fun

What's funny is the dude who writes it is actually Greek.

​@@TheMythologyGuy1 I would absolutely play the hell out of it!

or a drinking game where you get blackout drunk in the first 15 minutes of the show

@@TheMythologyGuy1 I know for a fact the "gods bleeding anything but gold iquor", "Hades being a villain" and "Heracles being called Hercules" would be on it.

I don't think he even named any of them.....besides athena or Dionysus 😂😂

"Which one is this one? There've been so many." 😄

@cartooncritique6625 "Which son is this there's so fucking many" please get that reference

@@VelvetteSimp I get the reference. Paimon from Helluva Boss, right? That's what I was alluding to with my comment.

atleast he should not call him Jesus or Lord Ganesha

But I don't regret drinking alcohol

It would’ve been more fitting if Harry used cuckoo birds as her messengers to spy for her.

Can’t argue with that

I think the only other time I saw such thing was that crappy animated Hercules and Xena animated movie, which that movie was more or less already ripping off the Disney Hercules movie.

That's about the only thing in this show that's mythically accurate. 😄

​@@brandonlyon730how was it ripping off the Disney movie when it was more based on the live action Hercules and Xena shows

@@dennisbeaman958 A bunch of elements seemed to be just them aping the Disney film. The whole plot is basically a evil god wanting to overthrow Zeus and Olympus by releasing the Titans, and the 4 titans being released happen to be themed around earth, water, fire, and wind elements. Maybe not one from one but there are definitely some points where they are trying to be similar.

No murder if no one knows also it's mercy compare to hera

@@genesismultiverse4896 well, Athena saved him and sent him straight to Hera so…. Didn’t make a big difference

@@SkyPerson And that's how Heracles got his name, his birth name was Alcides.

Same with the titanic it didn't crash it was a stupidly overcamplicated plan to hunt whales god those animated titanic movies suck

Wait there are fans of this show? Lmao.

​@@doctor-void2004what's so bad about this show?

No? The Greeks said that's what happens at the end of the tale of Perseus, he killed Acrisius during a disc throwing contest

@@oentrepreneur It's that inaccurate?...

That would be hilariously petty

​@@TheMythologyGuy1 and would be talking like the ultimate warrior

@@TheMythologyGuy1 and perfect for greek mythology

​@@TheMythologyGuy1 and very fitting for an average Greek God

​@@drcubeface and now he thinks the sun isn't moving and the earth is moving as the other planets that poor soul has fallen on insanity

*HOLD DEVILS POT OF TEA, HOLD DEVILS POT OF TEA"

Finally

It’s good to be back

@TheMythologyGuy1 It's good to have you back dude. You are without a doubt my favorite channel. Your knowledge of mythology is very helpful to my own research so I can incorporate it all into my own mythology based media I'm working on :)

I’m running out of ways to say this

Its sad when there is not enough jokes of dramatic stuff about the name of "Heracles" being used wrong with the other name. "Hercules"

​@@TheMythologyGuy1 i know try like vader You: no (whatever media) the name is heracles The whatever media: no it isn't possible THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

@@genesismultiverse4896 Did you just make a Disney's Hades reference???

​@orangeslash1667 no i did a vader reference

Even though _ikhor_ is not gold in appearance. It is dark.

Yeah I think you’re right

Also I’d say blunt force against people in armor will do more damage instead of trying to stab or lacerate them.

The last one, I get it, Hera helped Jason retrieve the Golden Fleece so she might as well have it.

And yes i know it has a lot of innacuracies but it's significantly better on that part than others. I mean i saw the casting of Percy Jackson. It could definitely be worse...

@@GothPaoki Fun Fact: Poseidon in this show is voiced by Chris Diamantopoulos, as in Mickey Mouse.

​@@GothPaoki yes. Percy Jackson casting was horrible.

That was acknowkedged at the start of this very video.

A Greek mythology fanfic written by a Christian from the looks of it.

@@cartooncritique6625 what's so wrong with a Christian writing it. From what i see in the comments, all the people who talks about mythically accurate can't look at Zeus with ancient lenses

@@isaklal518 Lol don't get mad kid.

@@ALotOfCancer really? As a Christian I have read the Iliad, Odyssey, Hesiod, Apollodorus. I can assure I know more about it than most commenters here who only sees Zeus in modern lenses

@@isaklal518Alright, pray tell what “modern lenses” are you referring to?

Maybe seventh that came to olympus

@@CrisWithAnK 😂😂

Nice pfp I also love that idea

I mean, Abrahamic people did have a way to explain Herakles and such. So it isn't far-fetched. Would be fun to see play out tbh.

And turf wars are often. Poseidon, Njord, other gods, and even none gods like Leviathan would fight over the sea. And evil gods like Set and Moloch constantly plan to overthrow "good" gods while Belphegor just causes conflict for fun.

​@shinigamiryan5837 man, the more I learn about history, the more the abrahamic religion seems like....any other mythology that was worshipped years ago. I'm kinda losing faith lmao.

@@N.I.A23 For the most part: it is. It's still a modern faith, but people forget that every mythology was a form of faith at some point and a lot of modern religions existed when these mythologies were still faiths. You can believe in it, but it should be something to be aware of and embraced. Nothing wrong with it tbh.

But there’s only 1 chariot, which is the Sun.

@@HB-fq9nn Backup chariot?

@@tyrongkojy No record has ever mention Apollo has 2 chariots. If there was, God Of War: Chain Of Olympus wouldn't have existed.

@@markconstance186 Nothing says he DOESN'T. Also let's not use Gawd Of Angry Times as a source for accuracy.

@@tyrongkojy Which mean as TheMythologyGuy said, it’s an inaccuracy. There’s no source to back it up, so he would have good reason to point it out if brought up.

It’s a sign!

@@TheMythologyGuy1 The fact you responded to my comment makes the video better. Keep up the good work!

My god ​@@TheMythologyGuy1 your the best teacher I had except for powerscalers but still your funnier

Ah yes. The unreliable narrator

​@@TheMythologyGuy1Exactly

People do the same thing with Cupid too. In Greek myth, he's called Eros, but everybody just calls him by his Roman name.

@@cartooncritique6625 That makes me wonder if it really is Catholics doing that to appease the Western viewers. Because a lot the times even Hades is likened to the Devil and the Underworld to Hell. Despite the fact that in Greek myth everyone goes to the underworld. How you are treated in the Underworld depends on how you lived on Earth and if you feel guilty for the sins you committed.

@@rebal180 It's funny and ironic since it seems like Christianity borrows quite a bit from Greek myth, especially when it comes to the afterlife. The Greek underworld was divided into three realms: Elysium, Tartarus, and the Asphodel Meadows which could easily be likened to Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory respectively.

@@rebal180 Maybe Hercules is easier to say than Heracles, which is why they use the former. If there's one thing Hollywood loves to do it's simplify things.

Amusingly, the Fate anime and games seem to consistently use the name of Heracles.

Or maybe the myth of the sun not moving and the other planets including earth moving NAH

Or Helios never give up... why people think Helios stopped being the sun god when he never stopped? Unless Apollo was the sun god in this show but i dont think that was never stated. Not only that, but there is no story with Apollo riding the sun chariot while doing other stuff. During the day he is always on Earth doing stuff, for example in the Iliad he was a active participant of the trojan war, while Helios pulled the chariot. The same goes for the Odyssey and this is in the very end of greek mythology. So Apollo never took the sun chariot since Helios is the sun god during the last stories of greek myth.

Also season 2 has a neet idea of the underworld having natural light like there are in caves

MCU being mythologically accurate is crazy

Ive always found the villains wiki to be very weird, because they always label characters on it as "evil doer". Like sure, the bowler hat guy is probably an evil doer, but I think someone like bill cypher is a little more than an "evil doer."

There is pure evil wiki too Yeah Hades is on it but only as Honorable Death God​@@maxwell6881

I love how it's become common to gauge how accurate a greek mythology story is by whether or not it's version of Zeus is on the villains wiki

@@maxwell6881 I was gonna go with evil but realised NO Hollywood Zeus is on Villains wiki

And my mom was shocked considering trump

I don't think I ever saw Clash of the Titans, but I've seen the scene with Bubo before. I literally clapped when I saw him here!

Even though Lúcifer/Heosphoros _(Ἑωσφόρος)_ is a title of Iesous and not an evil demonic force like ʿĂzāʾzēl for instance.

Really? I had only heard good things about them. I have a couple friends who use it and tell me it’s great so I was honestly really happy to get BetterHelp for this. If I’m wrong I apologize. This is just the first I’m hearing of it

​@@TheMythologyGuy1if you like using it then i cant stop you Love the inaccuracies videos btw ❤

@@TheMythologyGuy1 There are a few things but there would be collecting and sharing of data to third party advertisers without consent. They dont screen there Therapist properly so you can find people there that dont qualify to be Therapist. From what i know they also treat the Theraphist they do have rather poorly and with super high demand. Also they have the bad habbit to trying to intimidate Critics with cease and desist mails and similar steps. The youtuber and licencse therapist Mickey Atkins also has some experience with it. --- Also im glad it helped your friends :) If you have the time you can look into the Betterhelp thing.

​@@TheMythologyGuy1 My first answer got eaten my by bad internet connection so if i doubled post sorry in advance. But yeah they basicly did collect data and sell those to advertisers. They dont check there therapist properly so there are plenty that dont qualify. Those that work there often get treated poorly. They even make hard to cancel the service. Also they try to silence critics with cease and desist mail and other intimidation tactics and of course try to get a lot of influencers for good PR to cover it. There RU-vidr and licencse Therapist Mickey Atkins also has some video about that. --- But im glad that your friends got proper help :) When you have time you can look into betterhelp yourself and decide then for the future if you want to take them again.
