Re: Is AIO A Kids' Show?

I would say Adventures in Odyssey is a kids show, written and produced well enough to be appealing to people of all ages. I've been a listener and fan since I was a child, and now that I am an adult I still listen and still enjoy it. When I'm on a long car ride with someone, I often introduce them t...

Re: Favorite Episodes

I have too many favorites to narrow down to one. But maybe if I broke it down into genre:
Comedy: A Christmas Conundrum
Drama: The Turning Point (I cry every time. No joke.)
Bible Story: Bernard and Esther
History: It is Well
Slice-of-life: Sunday Morning Scramble
Salvation story: The Time Has Come

Re: Medical Center of Love

Don't forget Young Hearts Turning, featured in The Meaning of Sacrifice, faithfully watched by Donna and Jessie.

There was also a show in This is Chad Pearson?, but I can't remember the name of the show or if it was actually a soap opera.

Re: 727: Your Servant is Listening, Part 1

Here are a few of my thoughts: 1. I loved having 3 generations in the imagination station together. We don't often see adults in the IS, and especially families together. 2. Lucia was fun. I loved the references to Matthew's hair and talking to Whit about what he puts in his programs. 3. Finally! Th...

Re: Camilla's New Voice

Michaela's voice sounds different, but I'll reserve judgement until I hear her in an entire episode...so, tomorrow! She may have the talent to sound more like Camilla when she's acting, not just chatting in an interview.

A Love Letter to Eugene

I took on a seven day writing challenge and the topic for yesterday was to write a love letter from a fictional character to an anonymous or fictional character. Of course I chose my fictional characters from Odyssey. I thought you all might enjoy it. Dearest Eugene, Lately, I have been reflecting o...

Re: My Theory About "The New Story Arc"

I don't really know why, but when I heard you talk about missionaries and service, my first thought was that "The Pilot" could be the story of Nate Saint. He's the missionary pilot who flew Jim Elliot and the other men in to Ecuador to meet the Auca tribe. Your theory is interesting, thou...

What's your favorite Hal's Diner quote?

I'm looking for a caption for my scrapbook from my trip to Dallas last year. We ate at a Waffle House and kept making references to Hal's Diner. Come to think of it, Waffle House also reminds me of the greasy spoon where Bart and Doris had their first date. "That's not my money purse, that's my...

Re: Random Things That Remind You Of AIO

Last week I was on vacation and stayed in a hotel for a few nights. My nieces (ages 8, 11, 13) stayed with me and we made a rule that we had to use the secret knock to get in. So we were frequently calling out "That's not the secret knock." "Wooton, this isn't even your house." H...

I have been putting together a list of AIO Traveling Episodes specific to location, reason for travel, and mode of travel. Here's what I have so far. I tried not to repeat any episodes. Am I missing anything? And...as I just spent a week in St. Louis, I have been trying to figure out which episode i...

Re: Eugene Meltsner: Ultimate Catalyst of Drama

Well stated!

I agree that the Eugene & Katrina relationship saga is the most drawn-out and dramatic one AIO has ever done. Well...except Connie & Jason...but that remains in the dreams of the fans for now.

The other day we had a man come in for assistance from Scotland. He had a thick accent and it reminded me of Alan Young/Jack Allen.
