| Percy Jackson and the Olympians |
The tribe has spoken! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, December 20!
Our Top Pick tonight is Percy Jackson and the Olympians (Disney+, 3 a.m.). Rick Riordan's book series about the adolescent demigod Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), son of Poseidon. The season will cover the first book, The Lightning Thief, with Percy trying to recover Zeus (Lance Reddick, RIP)' thunderbolt, which he thinks Percy stole. He is helped by Athena's daughter Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) and his satyr BFF Grover (Aryan Simhadri). Jason Mantzoukas, Glynn Turman, and Megan Mullally are among the recur-ers. This has gotta be better than those convoluted, over-produced 2010s movies.
Elsewhere, the Survivor tribe speaks for a final time, Daniel has a curse, Vera doesn't take the Christmas season off, Maestro can be streamed, Horses fight for control, Granny is a Sheep Pig, Chip 'n' Dale love acorns, the final Masked Singer gets unmasked, and BTS goes Beyond.
(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Zap2it.)
