Re: 017-018: A Member of the Family, Parts 1 and 2
Patterson, Monty would actually be too young to fully understand that, in my opinion, unless he's a genius. (Which his sister is, so maybe.) The AIO writers tend to write these stories in a Christianized bubble and the characters always learn the right moral right away, even the children. You can ge...

Re: 012: The Tangled Web
I had forgotten that this episode exists. Wow, for a person who can think ahead (about having to remember a bad decision's outcome, including the guilt), this is quite an interesting episode. I've heard once that guilt is a powerful motivator.

Re: 010: Nothing To Fear
This is another classic AIO episode. Yet again, our Chad Reisser character is tormenting another child. He learns his lesson though. It's a solid one for children to hear, and a fun one for us old guys who've heard it a number of times.
It's not mind-blowing, so it's just a solid 3.
3/5

Re: Questions for The B Team
I want the old way, which is not the same as the other old way! Why is this so difficult?!

I confess, the last time I was active here, AIO was in a hiatus so no new episodes were happening so I participated in very few AIO conversations.

Re: Your crazy AiO theories!
John Andre Whittaker is a serial killer that took over John Paul Whittaker's life after he... disposed of him. JAW is content to settle down, now that he's pretending to be a WWII veteran who should be in his 90s. Nobody expects somebody like that to be a dangerous man! Now he can just run an ice cr...

I'm mildly intrigued as to the technical details of that. Did you have to add metadata to each thread, for the original airdate of the discussed episode?

Re: 928-929: The Lost One
Well, now that part 1 re-aired, here's my thoughts on that. Olivia is on a downward spiral, and hurts her friend by straight-up lying to her and omitting newsworthy information during an interview. She then blabs this info freely to the next, competing reporter. This walking away from her faith has ...
