How would you feel if AIO ended?
I know I don't like to think about it either!

How would you feel if AIO ended?
I don't like to think about this too much, but how would you feel if AIO ended? I would probably scream or smash my head against a wall. !I think that they might end AIO at the 1,000 episode because on the old Whit's End page about the actors,one of them mentions that Dr. Dobson wanted to make 1,000 eps and on the 500 Enhanced CD,Chris,while playing around, ask to send in ideas "for those last 500 shows we're going to do."Who knows?
Anyway,go ahead and post!

For the most part, they should end when fans lose interest. From what I see they could have stopped at many different points:
- After Auld Lang Syne - The end of 1988, it came to sort of a re-grouping point.
- After the Blackgaard Saga - After this story arc, would have been the best choice if they did stop. All plot-points (except the Eugene/Katrina thing...sort of) were cleared up.
- After the Novacom Saga - Same reason as the last.
- After Album 50 - A very dramatic ending with The Imagination Station, Revisited, could be a great ending, except for the thing at the end with Connie pushing that red button.
Or after It's a Wrap!. I think they actually said they were thinking about calling it quits then.Irwin wrote:For the most part, they should end when fans lose interest. From what I see they could have stopped at many different points:

Doh! I'm not a mod anymore. Admins, this thread needs to be deleted as its content is far to terrifying for some of our younger members. We can't have people entering depression because of what they read on a Christian message board.
I try not to think about these things, but in all reality, I really can't see AIO ending for at least 50 years. There is always a possibility of drastic changes (being produced by another organization, no Whit, half the episodes per year, etc.), but even if something horrible happened, there's so much dedication to the program, I just can't see it vanishing.

I was thinking about this a few years back. My theory was they shound end at album 50, where Whit and Connie should both get married (to different people, of course ). If that happened, the series really would be over.
I do not want Odyssey to ever end. It really would be heart-breaking.

If Odyssey ended, I would be sad. Then I would start writing the sequel series. (Or adapting it for television.)

So, everyone is Connie's family dies in a nuclear war, Whit adopts her, and Jason and Connie fight over the computer again, just like old times. Then, AIO ends, and we all cry, and it's dark, and the world is never the same again...

I'd be upset. DGL's ending, so I don't know if I'd survive if there was no more AIO either.

I voted for the first option. I still love the show and the thought of it ending makes me sad.

But what about ending it with a Nuclear WW1? I mean, if Paul McCuscker wrote and directed, that would be incredibly, Catacombs-ish, which is what we all want Odyssey to be, right?Chandlah wrote:I voted for the first option. I still love the show and the thought of it ending makes me sad.
Really, I would cry. Not literally, but still, I would be devastated!

Which is why I don't want it to end?
It's be sad to see it go, but when the show ends, you just know that the last season will be the most monumental season ever. Those last twelve episodes will be some of the best episodes ever produced, and we'd go out in quality.
I don't think that would ever happen! The only instance in which I think they should end it is when they can no longer write relevant shows. This is a show with a purpose beyond entertaining, after all. That said, I believe that with each new generation of kids, they can repurpose old themes and teach them in a unique new way (they've already done this with several episodes).Irwin wrote:For the most part, they should end when fans lose interest.

DGL's the kind of show that can have an actual ending....AIO not so much.Anna><> wrote:I'd be upset. DGL's ending, so I don't know if I'd survive if there was no more AIO either.
Wow, I didn't know DGL was ending. I'm guessing it was due to financial reasons? It wouldn't be so bad if it meant Uncle Charlie was returning, with the old "Children's Bible Hour" show. Anyone still remember this theme song?Anna><> wrote:I'd be upset. DGL's ending, so I don't know if I'd survive if there was no more AIO either.
Well, at least this gives me an opportunity to maybe catch up on the show--I'm still kind of stuck in season one from 8 years ago.

The show has not reached its goal of 2000 episodes. So far we have only heard 647 episodes.

I seriously would cry. It would be a very traumatic experience. But I would be glad that I at least have the albums so I would never be without AIO.
