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!

Pretty much the entire Album 'Exit'...

The music from 'A Most Extraordinary Conclusion', it always gives me chills.

It sounds like Marshal could... ;)
Acting? Are you really asking about my acting? While I enjoyed doing the few parts that I was able to fill, I absolutely despise the final product. Listening to "The Triangle" was absolute torture for me. It feels like I stand out like a sore thumb in the middle of all those great actors. I don't know how you guys can handle it. [...]

Paul and Marshal both have such unique voices, and it's a pleasure to listen to them. Too bad they don't agree.

I agree with an earlier comment--Katie Leigh in Plan B: Crossfire. She was absolutely AMAZING. I also really liked the acting by Corey Padnos in The Invisible Dog (a lot of people call his high voice annoying, but that's not his problem, so who cares?). I felt like he was relaying this story to me; he just made it sound so believable.

I also really liked the whole album Darkness Before Dawn, particularly Earl Boen, Will Ryan, and Alan Young. They were all really phenomenal. And the acting by all the actors for the Novacom Saga was really great.

I'll Definitely Agree With Trent With Genni Long As Lucy Shultz In "The Homecoming". That Part Makes Me Cry Every Time.... (I Know, I Cry Really Easy)

Speaking of Connie during Novacom, she was also quite good in "The Unraveling." :yes:

Jack Allen's speech to Scrub (and discreetly to Connie) about change in "But Not Forgotten" And pretty much all of the other actor's performances in both this and "Gone"

-Eugene's running out to say goodbye, Bart driving through the field to get to the airport, Tom in the airport, Connie when Bernard and Eugene return home.

Yep. Using my signature for a shameless plug. But trust me. If I can be so arrogant, I think it'll be worth your time.

#-o Truly a 'duh' moment. I was writing ''The episode 'Exit' '' and changed it to album instead... Thanks for pointing that out... ;)

I agree. And also Jeff Doucette's performance as Lester. That is one of my favorite episodes.

Come to think of it, all of Lester's performances are great. They need to bring him back!

I love Tom's scene in "The One About Trust" where he tells Connie about the college trust fund Whit started for her. Also Connie and Whit's scene after this is nice because it's one of the first sad scenes acted with Paul as Whit.

I also liked Earl Bowen in both "A Class Reenactment" and "Blackgaard's Revenge, Parts 1 and 2." Even though the last two episodes themselves weren't as great, the actors did a great job with what they had to work with.

I'd say oh, just about everybody in The Imagination Station Revisited, I & II. Kudos especially to Rachel Fox as Kelly, especially during the second half where she witnessed Jesus being questioned by the Sanhedrin and when she was in the dungeon. And I have to give props to Will Ryan as Judas, and to Phil Proctor as Caiaphas, Pilate and the repentant thief in the dungeon.

The whole Washington family in Sunday Morning Scramble (listened to that one today!)

Connie in Pamela Has a Problem.

Wow, just like my 'lists', when I get on a roll, the list practically writes itself. And I do agree, Whit and Tom in Light's Out at Whit's End is GREAT! I don't know why that episode gets such a bum wrap and won't be released.

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
