Zeus is not the equivalent of Odin
Is this bothering anyone else?
The writers seem to have done a lot of research, how could they have dropped the ball on this one?

Actually I saw it as a way Lost Girl lost its spine. It was one of the few shows that could have gotten away with adding Yahweh to the list of Zee's identities but it copped out. But you are correct, Odin and Zeus aren't the same at all. Heck, even the Romans identified Odin with Mercury and Thor with Jupiter and linguistically Zeus is connected to Tyr/Tiwaz.
shareEh, in a way they are. They're both the most powerful god in their respective pantheons, as well as the leaders of said pantheons.
shareI would argue that Zeus and Thor are closer equivalents while Odin would be more akin to Cronus. Zeus and Thor are both thunder gods, that in and of itself should have been enough.
