I don't Have any movie subscription services, but watched Kaos after finding it randomly on a Chinese website

Ii was pretty good! except wierd Netflix kirks like adding unprompted sex scenes and making everyone gay. I remember being surprised how good writing was, but then i figured somebody had a couple of millenia to write a story, Netflix "adapted" it

I didn't think it needed a second season, unlike another comment below which says it ends on a cliffhanger. I d recommend it to watch even with one season

Making "everyone" gay? I can only think of two characters (Theseus and Prometheus), one of which was a very clever adaptation of the myths.

Fellas is Greek myth gay? (spoiler: very)

When were they shown to be gay? I understood them to be gender fluid, which is something different.

There was that “pay with sex” scene for doing Dionysius a favor

I don't remember exactly what you mean, but very possible I missed it/forgot. Is this about the barkeeper?

Though I guess whether it's gay or not depends on how the gender fluid person felt at the time? Not sure how that works. Life is full of mysteries...

Maybe it was the bartender - I don’t remember that specifically. Even if I got the details wrong, my point was there were multiple scenes of gay sex.

It was an interesting contrast where the Prometheus scenes is relationship background for why he cares about humans, whereas Dionysus is just sort of there for anything, seemed very casual

I only remember the Prometheus scene, but very likely I'm forgetting something.

Fully agree on Prometheus and Dionysus. It was great how Dio kept showing empathy while searching for his purpose, and how the conflict with Zeus ignited a spark in him - he for sure would have played an important role in further plans by Prometheus. Bummer we won't get to see it play out!
