I remember that a big part of Annabeth’s character was that she was underestimated because she was blonde, which now has me wondering: did they move away from that because that stereotype isn’t exactly as prevalent as it was in the mid-aughts?
I remember as a kid getting made fun of for being blonde by adults, so I really connected to Annabeth’s struggle with the same. But, if that isn’t really a thing that happens anymore, I can kind of understand why it wouldn’t fit with the new show.
