645: Kidsboro, Part 3

Post by LizzieG »

Kidsboro is up (on oneplace at least), and because I've wanted to post an episode review topic with these poll options for awhile (or close to these poll options. I think I had something different in mind for the 4 star spot), and because this is my last chance for more than a year, and because I can, here ya go! :D

I really liked all 3 of the Kidsboro episodes. This episode was a good conclusion to Kidsboro. I'm interested to see if the AIO crew continues Kidsboro and for how long. I'm game for some more episodes. Yayy. 5 stars.

Ryan was right, you need God to be there at all times. You can't pretend to be God.

You are one of the very lucky few then because it won't download for me.

You were expecting a kiss? :-s

I liked it, but I guessed the ending... and I don't like it when even an idiot like me can guess out the ending. :/

Of course! It would have been much better if Brian and Alice fell in love at the end.

Episode tie-ins to a book series isn't new, it's been done with the popular Passages already. And now here.

I'll admit, I had mixed feelings when the episode information for this episode was released (a three parter for this?). And I kinda do still having listened to it.

My synopsis will be brief. The second half of part 2 to the end was really good. The ethical dilemma creeped up subeltly until the end of part two, and then bam. Ryan was in a pickle. That's how it can work out in real life. You take a few missteps and all of a sudden folks are in a real big misstep.

The first half really didn't interest me, though there wasn't anything bad about it. I also didn't like the fact that this didn't feel like it was in Odyssey, as well as the fact that the kids were all new. That probably contributed to my lack of interest.

And I'll finish here with two more things I liked. First, this idea was very original. Second, whoa, the acting on the part of the kids was very impressive. Hopefully some of these voices will re-emerge after the hiatus.

And that wraps up my thoughts of all three parts. If I had to rate it I'd say 3.5/5.

And, AIO team, I look forward to new episodes after the hiatus.
