Finally getting around to watching Puppet History (I’m behind on it as I didn’t watch it when it first came out) and I’m already on season two and man I love how unhinged the Professor is. Also the songs?? The songs at the end are top tier and I love them.
books hades: mean, scary, the first god percy thought was truly “godly”
show hades: history teacher with a wife and two kids
The Professor’s death in the season four finale of Puppet History genuinely upset me. How could Ryan “Beef Boy” Bergara do such a thing to a sweet little blue puppet who just wanted to teach history??? I can never forgive him for such crimes. Granted now that I’m caught up and have been told The Professor has made a revival of himself, I hope he gets his revenge. Justice for The Professor!
I am so happy that Percy is a criminal in live action as well. Does it serve anything to the plot? Doubtful. It does, however, serve in building Percy's reputation as a goddamn MENACE and I'm here for it
watcher's social media on tumblr is really top notch bc sometimes when I'm not paying attention to avatars, I see a post that I several times over assume is from a fellow fan and then realize it's actual a post by watcher.
survival? mode.
mysteries? filed.
hotel? trivago.
