Greek = Chic

I am so glad I got to watch this show. It really puts a spin on Greek myths & legends. The best part are the characters. While most of them are stereotypical, COTT humour + witty one-liners just makes them way better.

Anyway, the good thing is that I like most of the characters in COTT. They all contribute in one way or another. Jay's the typical leader type. Theresa's the goody-goody with psychic powers (cue X-men theme). Herry's the brawny yet not-so-bright softie at heart. Archie is the average hero with an Achilles' heel. Atlanta is the athletic and headstrong female. Odie's the typical geek/tech genius. Finally, Neil is the joker. He never ceases to amaze me with the shallowest possible comments. Seriously, he is probably the most self-centred "hero" ever created, which makes him so fun to laugh at. Among all the characters, my top favourites are Archie, Atlanta & Herry.

Regarding relationships, Jay & Theresa remind me of Scott & Jean (X-men Evolution) - boring. Of course, Jay/Theresa > Scott/Jean. Nonetheless, I am proud to say that the creators handled the Archie/Atlanta development tactfully, bringing out the struggle to protect their friendship. Although it is no match for more mature cartoons like Justice League/JLU, it still beats the bluntness of Man Of Action in Ben 10: Alien Force. And speaking of JLU, damn, the tension between John (Green Lantern) & Shayera (Hawkgirl) was intense!

Shh...
