They were good. Not my favorite, though.

They were okay. Two episodes was good enough for them.

I didn't like them. Bearable, but if they come back, I'll die.

I hated them. They were old geezers who needed to stay at the retirement home.

Remember those people? The old magicians who appeared in only two episodes, The Case of the Disappearing Hortons and True Calling. Those men were kind elderly gentlemen who displayed qualities and virtues of times past. They did such a good job. They're one of Odyssey's best, and yet sadly ignored, characters of all time. I love them. What do you think?

They were really good characters. Have you ever noticed that Bob Hoose wrote both of the episodes with them? He was the creator of them, and he seemed to be the only member of the AIO team that was particularly enthusiastic about Medelson and Greenfarb. I really like the humor they added to the two shows they were in!

They were good characters, but I think that AiO went too far with WWII. The second world war is an incredibly important piece of our history, and I thought that they went too far. It was one thing having Jared with his conspiracy theories, and it is quite another to have two grown men joining him. Other than that, they were depicted perfectly. I wish they were in more episodes.

I dunno. The WWII thing didn't bother me too much. It seemed just like a joke. No offense, though.

They were funny, if you can pick up on their humor.

The magic or the snooping? The magic was more of card tricks and rabbit-in-the-hat kind of 'magic'. Mostly just slight of hand and optical illusions. If it were much else, then I would agree.

I just don't like Magic in the first place but I think they were ok. I really didn't like Jasmine.

They kinda creeped me out when i was little with their weird voices. :) Other than that, I'd say they are very likable, silly, kind-hearted men. Of course, in real life, with Jared and Liz not exactly kids anymore, they'd probably be PRETTY old. But Odyssey has very strange time.
