opinions on riordanverse ; my edition
a lot of people have been doing this so i decided why not right. probably gna lose some followers or smth but anyways. pls respect my opinions! if u disagree, thats fine, but please be polite. unless any of my opinions strikes u as morally wrong then pls point it out to me respectfully. thanks!
- i actually liked drew. im so sorry to everyone who hates her but full offence, why. think about it this way ok, first of all drew became hc because silena died. silena was the traitor, the one who betrayed chb, yet after she died campers celebrated her as a hero? and then drew suddenly has to replace her and live up to idk that legacy she left behind,, when all of a sudden this girl named piper swoops in and takes her place. idk abt u but i wld be salty abt that too. not only that, but as an asian, the chances of drew having faced racism/bullying as a child is pretty high (she studies at brooklyn academy). which means that when she finds out shes a demigod, and arrives at chb where most of the campers are white (this is an assumption btw), sheâd obviously be scared of being bullied for her skin color right?? so the first thing she wld do before the campers get to bully her is to bully them before they can do so. (sentence structure here is wack i apologize) ofc this might not even have happened, drew could have had a perfect childhood && was a b1tch for no reason, BUT EVEN THEN HER ROLE AS A BULLY WAS PRETTY VITAL BECAUSE THAT FURTHER SHOWED THE CONTRAST BETWEEN HER AND PIPER,, HIGHLIGHTING PIPER AS A HERO//GOOD CHARACTER,, AND THEREFORE MAKING READERS LIKE PIPER MORE. anyway stop hating on drew please. ALSO WHY IS THIS SO LONGA SDFJHG
- jason isnt bland, the fandom just kinda erased his backstory (thanks to @pjohoo-memes for the phrasing lol)
- reynabeth wouldnt have lasted/would have broken up several times. idk i just see them as two extremely powerful characters who have firm opinions and will definitely clash at some point. in a platonic relationship,, i can see them as really good friends but as lovers? idk i just think theyll break up
- PIPABETH
- i dont really like jercy,, i see them as better friends than lovers. also idt jason and percy were that close..?
- the dam and not my type jokes are srsly cringey and were never funny. ik that seems hypocritical since my username literally makes use of the dam joke but honestly i dont actually like the joke. its not funny to me and has never been funny
- the seven were not best friends. they definitely argued,, and honestly probably werent as close as the fandom makes them seem. like ure dumped with 6 other people, out of which u only know a few. my introverted ass would have jumped off the argo 2 quicker than leo valdez could bomb camp jupiter up. also leo was a dick to frank. so what if frank is bigger sized?? thats not a valid reason to tease him
- the fandom needs to stop hating on octavian while worshipping luke. if u hate luke and u say u hate octavian too, then okay. but if u tell me ure a luke stan but u despise octavian?? imma disagree w u. luke was worse than octavian im sorry. first of all, octavian being a dick was kinda justified. hes been after the praetor position for so long, and everyone keeps saying to âwait for jasonâ when suddenly this dude, whos a son of NEPTUNE (neptune wasnt liked much by romans), and the camp decides to make him praetor?? dude i would be pissed off big time. and then afterwards, he finds out that greek demigods are real and the dude they made praetor is greek. AND THEN GREEK DEMIGODS COME TO CJ AND ONE OF THEM BOMB IT UP?? octavian has been told all his life that greeks are scum and this dude called leo valdez attacks cj. sure it was an accident, but did octavian know that? no. so it was honestly justified that he was such a salty prick im just saying. also some of yall be hating on octavian for cutting a teddy bear open and thats the funniest shit ive ever heard i swearÂ
- luke didnt go to elysium
- travis and connor stoll r way too underrated. the two have been head counselors of the hermes cabin since luke was revealed as a traitor, can u imagine the stress? luke, the person they probably looked up to as a brother, betrayed them. and they didnt even have time to process this when they were thrown the roles of being hcs. that would have been so stressful and i would probably have broken down if i were them. the stoll brothers taking turns to wake up at ungodly hours because a new camper is crying and homesick and terrified, the stoll brothers having to comfort and take care of new campers, having to deal with the amount of people in that cramped space because not enough campers are being claimed fast enough. having to resolve issues between campers in the hermes cabin all the time. the stolls arent just comedic relief, and we need to stop treating them as such
- tratie shldve been canon idc idc
- demigods of the demeter cabin arent talked about enough and i love the fact that meg was demeters kid. like she isnt the child of one of the big three yet shes so powerful.
- we need to hype clarisse up more her character arc was phucking amazingÂ
- rachel is overhated. sis found out greek gods exist and regularly come down to earth to fuck around and went âok coolâ. queen shit behavior methinks
- the floor 19 crew of mcga is srsly underrated. like do u even remember halfborn gunderson, mallory keen, tj, etc??? bc i feel like we only remember samirah, magnus, alex, and sometimes blitz and hearthstone
- sadie (tkc) was kinda annoying at first. i like her more now tho but i rmb not liking her for a phat while
- tkc and mcga need more love
- carter kane and jason grace arent boring. theyre just really sweet boys who are too good for this world and yes yes yesÂ
- hazel and frank (especially frank) need to be hyped up more. i hardly ever see anything about them. also yall seem to forget that frank was literally made praetor and that even hecate admired hazel and was willing to fight beside her because of how powerful she was
- frazels age gap is kinda sketch but i still think theyre really cute
- nico definitely had trauma from going to tartarus on his own
- GROVER IS PERCYS BEST FRIEND
- annabeth isnt smarter than leo but neither is leo smarter than annabeth. ive seen a lot of discussions about who is smarter and heres my hot take on it: neither. theyre equally smart, just in different ways. leos a genius mathematically speaking. he has no issues solving math problems meant for people much, much older than him. annabeth on the otherhand, is great at strategies etc. she can make an army of 1000 more powerful than the enemy, even if theyre outnumbered. so in my opinion, both are equally as smart//u cant compare their intelligence, because their talents lie in two different areas.
- while i do agree rick riordan isnt a god and that hes bound to make mistakes,, AND that hes given us a lot of representation,, if the representation offends the people its sposed to represent, then theres a problem. im talking about piper as a poc and wearing feathers in her hair. im not a poc, so i cant speak for them on whether or not its wrong, because i dont know either. HOWEVER, i have seen multiple posts BY pocs talking about how they didnt really like rickâs representation of piper, and thats an issue. pocs have been and are still oppressed and discriminated against by many. as a white cis man, we cant really blame him for not knowing (tho he could have done a research,, asked some pocs,, idk), but by representing pocs in that manner, hes influencing impressionable kids/teens into thinking âoh pocs wear feathers in their hair all the timeâ etc, which isnt true. the pjo/hoo series is extremely successful, and kids who read the books will probably start forming inaccurate opinions on pocs. the amount of fan art that depicts piper with feathers in her hair dont help either. âbut rick said so in the books, so its canonâ yeah well rick isnt a god and he can get some things wrong at times. im not saying we should cancel him, im saying we should start educating ourselves and not spread false info like pocs wearing feathers in their hair all the time. also that snake song shit where she sang Summertime was just- yeah. bc heres the thing you can be racist, and still include minorities, but portray them in a racist way. And even then, ignorance isn't a thing to admire. Getting those facts wrong still has a major impact. It continues to perpetuate racist stereotypes.
â With the feather thing, I looked it up myself; it takes less than five minutes to figure out that Cherokees don't braid feathers into their hair. I didn't grow up in the country where my parents are from. I have many other first/second generation American friends who have also been through that, with a bit of a disconnect from their culture. But something that most of us have in common is that when we didn't know something, and when our parents weren't that big of a help, we looked it up. We sought out resources online and through other people from our culture to be able to connect more with where we came from. Some of that took a Google search. So I find it hard to believe that Piper, a girl who Rick's trying to portray as someone who is attempting to connect with her culture and is totally against racist stereotypes, wouldn't know that eagle feathers aren't supposed to be braided into your hair casually. She may be disconnected from her culture, but she's also shown to want to connect back to it. Piper wouldn't be casually braiding feathers into her hair while also telling off people for being racist. It makes no sense.â - reddit thread (down below)Â
for those of yall who wanna know more please please read this, it has a lot of things i wanna add in here :Â https://www.reddit.com/r/camphalfblood/comments/gy3gl2/piper_mcleans_portrayal_is_innacurate/Â
as well as https://finding-my-culture.tumblr.com/post/189422373260/maxie-ratties-and-cattie-finding-my-cultureÂ
i will be posting screenshots of these in future posts so if ure viewing this on ig and u dont have tumblr,, dont worryÂ
- the fact that most of the strong female characters in the series refuse to be âgirlyâ, and ngl i dont really like that. just because ure girly doesnt mean u cant be strong.Â
- piper would have been a great way for him to start making the strong characters act girlier, but instead he went with the âIâm not like other girlsâ trope which is quite obnoxious to hear constantly, and I donât think itâs necessarily great for younger girls to read that idea growing up. the closest we've ever had to a strong female character who was also into "girly" things was Silena. when I was younger I admired Piper's "I'm not like other girls" thing, but then I got older and realized that the whole mentality of "not like other girls" is super obnoxious, and a little bit toxic
i have a heck load more that i cant rmb rn but yeah feel free to add moreÂ

Babe:Â Oh yeah
Babe:Â Sheâs just crying because (and Iâm quoting here) youâre âso beautiful, itâs like all my wet dreams and fantasies have come together. I swear this is some cosmic joke, this is not happeningâ
Babe:Â Iâm not sure if sheâs laughing or crying now
Babe:Â But she keeps yelling at me that I have to send you the most perfect picture of herself that has ever existed or you will stop talking to her
Babe:Â I think she started crying again because âI will never live up to that level of perfection, he told me that I have to know which fights to pickâ
Babe:Â Uh yeah so here
Babe: 1 Photo Attached
Bonky:Â Hey Nat, could you tell Y/N that I would like to talk to her now?
Babe:Â Sure
Babe:Â Hey
Bonky:Â Baby?
Babe:Â Yeah?
Bonky:Â You picked the wrong fight if you think âyou will never live up to this level of perfectionâ
Babe:Â Oh God
Bonky:Â Stop being an idiot
Bonky:Â And listen to me
Bonky:Â I would really like to keep talking to you. Mainly because youâre an idiot who makes me laugh, but itâs also the fact that you are the most gorgeous woman I have ever seen in my entire life
Babe:

*eyes light up with anger and passion*
WHERE DO I EVEN START
So I guess the best place to start is that in Jessie, every single one of the characters is an appearance-based stereotype. Â Every single one of them. Â And almost all of them are racial stereotypes.
The main four characters (minus the titular character, who Iâll get to later) are all racial stereotypes. Â All of them. Â And two of them are white. Â How do you even do that.
- The youngest kid is a black girl named Zuri.  Guess what her personality is.  Sheâs sassy, rebellious, and mean to those around her.  Iâm 99% certain that she says âmmmmhmmmâ multiple times in the show.  I know she says it at least once because I can literally hear her saying it in my brain while Iâm writing this.
- The second youngest is an asian boy from India named Ravi (was that how it was spelled? do I care?). Â Guess what his personality is. Â Heâs a nerdy, awkward social outcast who gets perfect grades, is cowardly, and is made fun of for his awkward behavior.
- The second eldest is a white boy named Luke, who makes fart jokes, slacks off in school, and makes a lot of bad snarky jokes. Â I guess thatâs not necessarily a white person stereotype but... //shrugs
- The eldest daughter is a blonde white girl named Emma.  She loves makeup, boys, gossip, being pretty, and is self-centered and disrespectful to everyone around her.  Sheâs the epitome of the âblonde bitchâ villain trope you see in so many school-centric shows, except sheâs a protagonist that youâre supposed to sympathize with and care about.  Idk if this is a white girl only issue (i dont think that blonde bitch in Miraculous Ladybug is white [i dont remember her name bc i havent watched the show in like a year, sorry] but I might be wrong) but Iâve literally only ever seen this character with blonde-haired people so Iâm counting it as racist.
As for the titular character, sheâs from Texas.  She had an overbearing, possibly abusive military father (which is only used for laughs, obviously), sheâs helped a cow give birth, she knows how to handle a gun, and im p sure they made fun of her for having an accent (even though its so incredibly neutralized in the actressesâ performance. Debby [her actress] isnt even from texas so like....no wonder)  I mean I dont really have much of a problem with like half those things bc the cow and the gun are just harmless stereotypes.  Nobodyâs going to be hurt by those; they just arent funny. BUT DONT MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE WITH ACCENTS OR PEOPLE WHO HAVE ABUSIVE PARENTS, JESUS FUCK.
And then thereâs another, more minor main character whose name Iâm too lazy to spell so Iâll just call him Fat Butler Dude and....I think you can guess his personality based on that description.  Heâs lazy, he loves food, he complains about his job, ect.  And listen.  Buddy.  Bro.  Dude.  I dont have a problem with fat characters who like food.  I dont have a problem with lazy fat characters.  Iâm a fat person, and Iâm a lazy person who likes food.  People who âmeetâ stereotypes exist.  But those are pretty much his only defining traits, and when you do nothing but build your character outside of a stereotype (which is true of all the above characters) then youâre doing it wrong.
And the show in general is just paper-thin and unfunny and not good.  I guess it depends on your style of humor whether youâll find it funny or not (some people would be too revolted by one episode to analyze it, but I can handle the writing and even laughed at a few jokes while watching it) but the humor is not very intelligent generally.  Also there are like...a lot of innuendos in this show??  In one episode, Zuri says âyou shouldâve seen what [insert this other young kid bitch] did to Mr. Bearyton! (her stuffed toy bear)  Now heâll never have children!â  And Iâm just...........ok, sure, pretend like anyone who will find that joke funny is watching your show.  Iâm sorry but personally Iâm of the mindset that if your show isnât trying to be something mature and appeal to all ages, you shouldnât use innuendos.  Either make it bland, forgettable, and non-offensive, or try to do something great with your kids show - dont try to sneak in a joke for the adults if your show has no fucking adult audience because the rest of your writing is so abysmal.  Also that joke isnât even remotely subtle or cute in any way.  I would rather not think of a young child mutilating a bearâs genitalia, thanks
As for the paper-thin part, it tries to sneak in emotional bonding moments between the four children characters (the racial stereotypes) and the babysitter/titular character (Jessie) and even the butler gets to join in sometimes, but honestly? nothing they do is remotely emotional, to no oneâs surprise.  If I cant at least say âaw, thatâs cuteâ because the characters are so infuriating, youâre doing it wrong.  Not every emotional moment needs to have people in tears, especially in a sitcom, but for fuckâs sake...
BUT BUNKâD IS WORSE
Take all the paper-thin emotions out of Jessie and replace them with even shittier jokes and even shittier writing. Â Take out the three least racist characters (Jessie, the butler, and Luke) and replace them with:
- An overachieving asian girl with overbearing, abusive parents. Â Yes, somehow they got TWO stereotypes in for the same goddamn race. Â She has intense anxiety over doing things perfectly, takes on way too much for her mental health, and expresses legitimate fear over her mothersâ reaction to her doing anything other than be perfect.
- A fat mexican kid who likes food, is lazy, is dumb, and farts a lot. Â I bet he got more racist as the show went on but I dont care enough to go and check.
- A Hot White Boy (TM) who is just eyecandy for Emma. Â He plays guitar, heâs good-looking, he has a high-ranking position at the camp....i want to call him a Gary Stu but if thereâs one thing Jessie got right, its that they at least gave all their characters discernible flaws (the problem is that they have no personality outside of those flaws :/ how do you even make a character too flawed when they arent a complete evil bastard, like what the fuck, i wish i could fuck up writing that badly) Â Also his name is Xander. Â I forgot the names of the above two characters but i looked em up but honestly idc enough to write them down
- A white girl named Lou who I had completely forgotten about but sheâs like Jessie except on country steroids and 10x more annoying from what I remember. Â Sheâs still the most tolerable character in the show.
- A LITERAL FUCKING STALKER, WHO STALKS XANDER, AND ITS PLAYED FOR LAUGHS, WHAT THE FUCK. Â Sheâs an antagonist clearly BUT STILL WHAT THE FUCK. Â Sheâs also blonde
- Thereâs also this evil camp councilor that is played by Freddy Bensonâs mother. Â Sheâs a stereotype too, probably a suburban white mom stereotype, but sheâs still the last racist of all the characters. Â Sheâs still annoying tho.
There are other characters too but I dont ever remember seeing them in the episodes I saw of the show, so whatever.
Basically Bunkâd is a more racist, more paper-thin, more toilet humor/bad humor-filled, more âlol random xdâ-filled version of Jessie, which was already all of those things.
Honestly Bunkâd and Jessie are by far two of the most hateful sitcoms Iâve seen, and Iâd say theyâre a bad influence on kids of today.  The show isnât...flat out saying its okay to be racist?  But literally I dont even think I can chock this up to ignorance or accidental racism.  Every character of a racial minority, and even white characters, and fat characters, and characters from the country.... just so happens to fall perfectly into a racial stereotype.  If it was one or two characters? maybe I could pass it off as âwell television writers are just fucking idiotsâ (like I do whenever the PPG reboot tries to say itâs making a difference in the world lmao).  But EVERY. SINGLE. CHARACTER. IS A RACIST STEREOTYPE.  And the fact that Jessie ran until 2015ish (and started in 2010ish) and Bunkâd is still running?  If that doesnât tell you racism is real in hollywood, idk what will.
I never see anyone talk about this either, and ive hardly seen people talk about the show in general, and it makes me rlly mad because ??? Â I thought you guys cared about this kind of stuff?? Â I understand most people dont pay attention to sitcoms but still. Â Youâd think SJWs would be more concerned with LITERAL TRANSPARENT AND UNDENIABLE RACISM in KIDS SHOWS but apparently they arent. Â Or just nobody knows. Â But that makes me even madder because we should be calling this kind of trash out. Â You say that media is important but then ignore one of the biggest genres of childrenâs programming, which is arguably the most influential television of them all....like idk it just seems hypocritical to me.
 so yeah tldr Jessie is just a bad/eh show in general but its made 100x worse by racial stereotypes, obesity stereotypes, jokes about things that shouldnt be joked about (especially in kids show), and lots of other things - and Bunkâd is even worse in all those regards.
