The Odyssey (TV series): Difference between revisions

Line 26:
* [[Adventures in Coma Land]]: the central premise of the series.
* [[Affably Evil]]: Macro, who always comes across as charming and laid-back, even though he {{spoiler|deposed Brad and secretly took over the Tower as supreme ruler.}}
* [[Alternate Self]]: see [[But You Were There]] below.
* [[All There in the Manual]]: according to promotional material for the show, Jay's fantasy world was called Downworld, whilst the real world was referred to as Upworld. Neither name was ever used in the TV show.
* [[Alternate Self]]: see [[But You Were There]] below.
* [[The Atoner]]: of all people, Keith / Flash. He feels responsible for causing Jay's accident.
* [[But You Were There and You and You]]: to begin with, Flash (Keith) and Alpha (Donna); as the series wears on, characters who originally appeared in Downworld are also revealed to have doubles in the real world (most notably Medea / Sierra Jones). It's ambiguous as to what extent they are just figments of Jay's imagination.
Line 40:
{{quote|"And for the prosecution, I give you ... the Finger."}}
* [[Hall of Mirrors]]: a highly symbolic one in one episode, which leads to:
** [[The Man in the Mirror Talks Back]]. Both Jay and Flash experience this.
* [[High Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Medea}} in season 2. {{spoiler|She eventually realises that Jay honestly doesn't want to destroy her world, becomes sympathetic of his quest to find his father, and even becomes attracted to him.}}
* [[Hollow World]]: Fractal proposes this theory, along with the idea that there could be worlds within worlds. Makes a neat metaphor for Jay's different levels of consciousness.
