What did everyone think of this episode?

I liked this episode! It’s about time the entire Calhoun family appeared in an episode together. We’ve been getting a lot of Perkins family episodes lately, which I’m fine with, but I’m also interested in seeing the other new family in Odyssey, the Calhoun family. Which we finally hear in this first episode of the “Snow Series”.

The sound design in this episode was good. The only small gripe I had about it is that the AIO sound designers seem to be using real-life phone sound effects. I find that annoying because I think that AIO should remain timeless, using original sounds, not using sound effects of specific brands. Also, whenever I heard them, I thought it was my phone making the noises, not the one in the episode!

It was funny that the Calhoun kids have a Great Aunt Clara who sends gifts that rhyme with their names. Trey’s monologue about the rhyming gifts reminded me of Connie talking about her and Mitch’s rhyming themed dinner in the episode “Something Blue, Part 1”.

The moral in this episode was great. Very relevant, and it’s something that I have experience with. I really liked it.

The AIO Team has stated that the last four episodes of the Club, “The Snow Must Go On”, “Make Snow Mistake”, “Sew on and Snow Forth”, and “Snow 'Em Who's Boss” (we still don’t know the order), will all happen at the same time, so I assume that next month’s episode will focus on another set of characters during this blizzard in Odyssey.

Looking forward to next month’s Club episode!

When i first heard the episode, my brother thought that the kid who needed brain surgery was someone we knew.

I as well thought this. I thought that the episode would conclude with a big reveal of who the injured person was, since the Odyssey Team has said that the four episodes are connected. Maybe next month’s episode will touch on this. I'd definitely be interested in knowing who this injured person was.

I re-listened to this episode a while ago and I liked it just as much as the first time I had heard it. Great episode! In the past, Kathy Buchanan has always written good episodes with family interactions (the Washington family in “Sunday Morning Scramble” and the Parker family in “The Grass Is Always Greener” to name a few) and has once again done an excellent job on “The Snow Must Go On” with the Calhoun family. I look forward to future episodes with the Calhoun family.
