DC Universe: Swamp Thing – The Price You Pay

Published

on

Wow, this episode just continues that roller coaster ride that was the last two. We get full confirmation that Matt (Henderson Wade) is Alec’s killer. Add to that his motive on why he did the dirty deed, just paints how much Avery (Will Patton) has everyone in his pocket, no matter how much they don’t want to be. We also get Daniel (Ian Ziering) origin this episode as he makes a “deal to become a devil” with the Phantom Stranger (Macon Blair).

All and all, this episode just continues to up the stakes for all the characters involved. Not to mention Swamp Thing (Derek Mears) is starting to get lost in his role and it doesn’t help Avery’s sending goons to nab him now. The whole sequence with the way Alec deals with them. OUCH. Plus we get more tension between him and Abby. Thankfully, it appears next episode appears to be a crux of all that.

If anything, the only plot threads that don’t get picked up this week are Maria (Virginia Madsen) and Susie (Elle Graham) are nowhere to be scene in this episode. I would have figured given with Daniel still being in the hospital,we’d have one scene of Maria reacting to Avery putting other things in the way of seeing her, while doing so RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER. You’d figure there be more payback after she teased some before, but nope.

On the other hand, we get a lot of Woodrue (Kevin Durand) this episode (and I just love the utter ride this has been with the character), as he continues to descend into doing whatever it takes to test the samples he got from Abby and then Alec’s lab of Swamp Thing. Even his sick wife noting how much he’s fallen makes me wonder after this episode, we’re getting oh so closer to him becoming what he’s sadly destined to become.

Really, the only cliched part that bored me this episode was Abby (Crystal Reed) other than at the end, just moving between the other plots as more a witness to it all and nothing more in effecting the plot till the end. She just felt pointless this episode, and how the heck is she still in Marais? Given that she’s CDC wouldn’t they be asking for her to come back now with a new assignment?

But given how much Daniel, Woodrue, and Liz (Maria Sten) get in this episode. It is kind of nice to see Abby take a backseat for once. Let the supporting characters get their little spotlight (given sadly this show was already given the axe even before the first episode aired. I’ll take what I can get).

I’m really curious how this will all come to ahead as there are only four episodes left after this. I doubt this will all end perfectly, as the show was cut down a few episodes first before it got the cancellation notice.

Published

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
