Which old Character would you like to bring back to AIO?

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Bernard all the way!! Dave Madden is one of Odyssey's funniest characters, and creates great foils with Wooton, Eugene, Connie, and just by himself.

Eugene-"Well, the sequence of events occured with extreme rapidity, but I shall attempt to recall them. I was powering my two-wheeler along this concrete pathway, when your personnage suddenly appeared directly in front of me blocking my course. My reflexes immediately sprang to life in an attempt to navigate an evasive manouveur around you while still maintaining course and speed, but I evidently over-compensated, and my Schwinn careened off the hardened path, taking me with it, and up-ended us both in this shrub, a Rhododendron of the heath family I believe, deducing from the leathery evergreen leaves, as distinguished from the deciduous Azalea, which as we all know is..."
Isaac-"You mean, you crashed into this bush cause I got in your way."
Eugene-"Well, that of course is another way of expressing it." Isaac the Benevolent

I voted for Bernard, which would be awesome because he's a lovable curmudgeon, but he's getting old and he's had his time on Odyssey so I won't be too upset if they don't bring him back. As for older characters, I would like to see kids who've grown up, like maybe Robyn and Melanie or more recent ones like Jared and Mandy come back (Though Mandy was in a lot of episodes not long before album 50 and the whole story with her and Trent was cool, so I dunno.)

I voted for Bernard, but Tom Riley was a close second. Though I can understand if these characters never come back. AIO never found a new voice for Tom Riley, and Bernard's actor is probably getting older too.

Bernard! Tom, Jason, and Jack were all great but Bernard was best. He could be funny by just being himself, unlike Wooton who has to say funny things to be funny. Bernard was like one of those older men you meet who give you a hard time but are so sweet inside. *sigh* I never realized how much Bernard added to the show until he left. The actor is older though so I doubt will hear from him again. If we do that will be a wonderful surprise, and most likely mot a regular event.

Berny Walton can't be beat! We need Bernard!

I would like to hear from Bernard, definitely.

Nick Mulligan. :pray: Way to totally drop an entire storyline and character from the show for no reason, Odyssey!

Totally Bernard!

But it wouldn't be a bad idea for the Rathbones to come back.

She left many of us behind. She left us heartbroken. And though we cry now there'll come a time when we'll laugh. Because we'll see her again someday. We'll be with her in heaven. And when we go to heaven she'll be there to greet us. She'll be there to say "Welcome home." -From a poem that SnC wrote about her grandmother

Bernard Walton. Odyssey needs its resident curmudgeon and master storyteller back.

I was thinking today, along with Bernard, they should also bring back Edwin.

YES!!!! Edwin and Bernard are my two favorites of all time, and I lament his absence pretty much every time I listen to an episode. Grrr! :x

Ingress! \:D/ I totally agree with your post, but I'm also happy to see you on the ToO again. It's been too long!

I really do love Bernard. He's such an amazingly great character! I understand that Dave Madden is older and that it might be out of the writing team's hands for the most part, but there can never be too much Bernard!

More Edwin would be lovely as well. And if Edwin is in an episode, then Shakespeare is a necessity as well. :yes:

Did Bernard officially leave?! :cry: He's probably my fav character! But i really want ALL of the above to come back. And I agree with the Nick sentiment--he kind of left with no explanation. There are really so many characters I want back :?

I guess many people really want Bernard back as well as so many other old characters such as Nick Mulligan and Edwin Blackgaard. Hope some do return to Odyssey someday! \:D/

It'd be great if they could get Dave Madden to come back for just a few episodes so he could... retire and move to Florida or something. Not just vanish entirely. Eugene could ride with him on the moving truck on the way down. >_>
