Before Adventures in Odyssey, there was "Family Portraits," a short series that introduced the world to what was soon to be everyone’s favorite small town. In the episode "The Letter," a teen named Stacey gets into an argument with her father and eventually finds a way to forgive him. This was the first Focus drama featuring Katie Leigh, who would soon play Connie Kendall. Hear "The Letter" and Katie’s memories of the recording.

When is the next time we’ll see Emily, Morrie, and Suzu? How often are the writers' meetings and how many albums do you plan ahead? What are the plans for the Blackgaard books? And the question for the ages: Why did Mitch’s voice change in that scene in "Green Eyes and Yellow Tulips"?

Showrunner Marshal Younger and head of orthodoxy Ron Reno discuss the Olivia story arc, give a preview of the future, and explain the word "orthodoxy."
