Cupid, ABC TV show
I’m a stickler for accuracy. Maybe it’s the six plus years in journalism or the fact that Greek mythology has ALWAYS appealed with me.
But Cupid the show is getting on my nerves.
It’s a cute show yes but if Cupid continues to talk about the Roman and Greek interchangeably, I may just shut off the set. Really. It’s a thing.
So when I hear stuff like “I got a heads up. Zeus is off his meds again.” when two seconds ago Mercury the Roman God of War was reference, the hairs on the back of my neck is just stand up!
Cupid is a Roman God. Eros is the Greek equivalent. Get it right!
