I concur with this statement and with Jeremy's.

Jeremy wrote:Just for those who weren't aware--Darien is not played by Townsend Coleman (Jason Whittaker). He's actually played by Roger Rose, who just sounds exactly like Townsend. ;) It's incredible, though, how the script and even the way he talks is just like Jason. :shock: At least we know there is a great replacement for Jason, if they ever need one. \:D/

Jeremy
NO WAY! Are you sure? - I just assumed Townsend Coleman was playing him and did not think otherwise! I still can't help but think that it is him because it sounds SO much like Jason! WOW! Thanks 4 letting me know... I would have never figured it out!

Also, are you sure they got a new voice for Whit... he sounds so much like the old one! WOW! Odyssey is doing great replacing everyone! ;-)

Listen to the August 8, 2009 podcast and you will hear for yourself that they did indeed get a new voice for Whit and the reasons why.

haha, yes.. thank you Laurie - it was just a joke - if you look at my comment history you will see that I am very much aware of this and not so much in favor of it. ;-)

I thought I could detect humor in that-- mostly because he sounds not like the old Whit.

In my opinion, he sounds more like Hal than Paul did. But that's just what I think.

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.

I was listening to "In My Image" recently and I heard Otto talking and I said to my sister,
"That's Darien!"

I'm loving the later parts of DR,much more than the arlier ones.They end more smoothly than before.

Tomorow,Part 9!Even though it's ending,it means were ever so much closer to the Spring 2010 season!!!!!

Pretty decent.

Odyssey's first on air suicide? (unless we're counting Blackgaard).

I kinda like the New Whit. He seems a little jumpy, or stressed about something. But he'll do.

Nice Job, everyone!
