Mystery of the Clock Tower Part 2 Review

Things I Liked:

• I liked how Matthew tagged along with Eugene during this episode.  It might have made the story better if Matthew had actually helped solve a part of the mystery, and proved to Eugene that he could be useful.
• I enjoyed the part where Whit and Connie’s cell phone rang at the same time, and they talked concurrently.
• I kind of liked Oliver Drevell.  His voice sounded like a bad guy’s voice.  Too bad he actually turned out to be one.

Things I Disliked:

• I was kind of disappointed with the conclusion of this episode.

Notes:

• The part where Whit, Connie, and Oliver went to Michael’s apartment, and finding out about Michael’s “unhealthy crush” seemed mature for AIO’s target age group.

I’ll give both parts of this episode a combined 3½ out of 5 star rating.

(Note: Tell me what you thought about this episode in the comments!)

My review for "Mystery of the Clock Tower"

Here's my review for "Mystery of the Clock Tower:"

Things I Liked:

• I liked the story behind this story.
• How Alicia and Michael both told the story.

Things I Disliked:

• Andre Stojka as the voice of Whit, mostly 
• I have mixed feelings about the mayor, Spencer Hicks.  Margaret Faye made some of the episodes really good, even though she was obnoxious and politically correct.

Notes:

• The end of this episode sound's like something you'd read on the back of a Ted Dekker book. "A wedding veil hanging in a dark, deserted room, with a clock counting down to 11:45 and a lost love."
• This episode is a mystery, hence the Novacom Saga-sounding music.
• I think that Andrew may be involved with the mystery somehow.  His scene would be completely unnecessary, otherwise.

Rating:
I'll give this episode a 31/2 - 4 star rating

In Odyssey news, there's a new podcast out that reviews popular radio dramas such as Adventures i Odyssey, and Lamplighter Theatre.  You can visit the site (it's called Audio Theatre Central) here.  Also, Focus on the Family has a new site, where you can download #52 right now! (and albums #1-#51)  Visit that site here.  And thanks to Brock Eastman for the heads up.  In my opinion, the price for each album is too expensive.  You could almost buy a hard copy of the album for that price.  Anyway...

Mystery of the Clock Tower - Now Airing!

It's finally here!  "Mystery of the Clocktower" is airing at www.whitsend.org!  I'm receiving the album, from Tyndale, probably next week.  But this week, I'll be able to hear the first episode.  I hope this album was better than #51.  I kind of liked some of the episodes of Take it From the Top at first, but now I don't really like the album.  I'll probably do a review of the whole album, before I post my reviews for #52.

In AIO news, the Odyssey Scoop has a new ScoopCast out.  If you want to visit my personal blog, just click on the link at the top of the screen.  That's all for today.  So long!
