The Town of Odyssey

I got 20/25

I got 22/25. Unfortunately, I don't have all of the Eugene eps on tape, so I haven't heard all of them enough to know everything well enough.

I can't open it! I got 21/25 but I can't play the bloopers!

Cowgirl: I've uploaded an mp3 version of the bloopers to one of my online accounts. I'll send you the link via PM.

A bit of overkill, but I'll take it in exchange for a long 2nd run of Will Ryan with Adventures in Odyssey. Whatever they need to peddle (Eugene Sings, Eugene shirts, Eugene Pez dispensers, etc) to fund his return, is fine by me.

> Eugene shirts

That isn't actually a T-shirt for sale... it's a free iron-on transfer. 8)

With Shadowpaw's Gold Audio announcement today (9, 10, 11 in October?!), it looks like there will be a lot of AIO stuff this fall. But then, what is Christmas for? : )

Do you really want me to answer that?

About EugeneReturns.com--I really enjoyed browsing through it. It had lots of fun things to do and listen to (I especially liked the outtakes) and actually made me a bit more excited about the new AIO episodes. But to me it really feels like a one-off site--a site that won't ever be updated again. I hope that's not the case.

IMHO, I feel there was too much hype over the return of Eugene. When Whit came back (or when there was a search for him), the episode just showed up like a normal episode. That's what made it exciting for people listening to it on the original airing--they got a really good episode when they were expecting a average episode. But with the three-parter about the return of Eugene, the episode was really elevated and so listeners expected very highly of it. If there had been less hype, less dissapointment would be felt.

Or maybe it's vise versa. Whatever. It's just good to have Eugene back.

Silly and unrealistic. Who has ever seen train track in mines that looks suspiciously like a roller coaster? I thought the part about the crush on Eugene was a bit funny... for the absurdity of the situation. My favorite line from the movie was something about how friendly the people in town were when Eugene saw the lady waving from the bank window trying to indicate that something was wrong.

The is funny becasue she was waving because the bank was getting robbed.

That's what I mean... she had her hands up because of the holdup and when she saw Eugene and Dylan she was trying to let them know something was wrong. Eugene misinterpreted it as thinking she was just being really friendly. Probably because she had a goofy grin on her face.

When seeing "Go West, Young Man" a few years ago, I really enjoyed it. It had humor (some big lady getting a crush on Eugene--that's funny!), adventure (I really liked the "rollercoaster" at the end), and was well-written, from what I can remember. There are certainly worse AIO videos than that one, IMO.

Hey, did anyone notice this is off-topic again? Na, I'm sure nobody did...

I'm still waiting for someone to come and tell me which answers will give you a 25/25 on the quiz.

The correct ones.

All you have to do is press back in your browser and fiddle with the ones you think you got wrong. The one I got wrong was the video series one, but at this time I can't remember which one ended up being the correct answer.

I think I got about a 20/25..

Sorry, it might be due to Englishness, but I didn't understand any poll options enough to vote, except ones which where not what I thought when I did see it.

the picture that is the worst is this one:
is that supposed to be an imatation of elvis?

I wish they would tell you which questions you missed. At least if they did you could look up the answers and correct your mistakes. It's very fustrating not knowing which ones you got wrong.

Another thing I disliked was Whit's voice. It wasn't done by Paul or Hal and just sounded wrong.

Wow, Eugene sings? That should be...interesting, but TOTALLY COOL!!!!!! Ha ha, just eugene and his eukalele. I wonder if Benard will buy one.

The almighty Shadowpaw missed one?!
I was hoping to take the easy way out and just have someone tell me. But if you insist...
