This show jumped when the kids got too old.

It should have been some sort of mini-series, maybe a feature length film!
Never jumped. But I was miffed that they didn't get to finish the storyline they started.
This show was done for once Jay woke up. It defeated the whole point of the show. He went from a kid who was trapped in his own mind and a world of his own making to a guy who was just kind of delusional. It's sad because I looked forward to seeing this show every week only to end up not even caring about how it ended after this foolish change took place.
This show jumped the shark when the kids metamorphosized into that most dreaded of entities - teenagers. What had been cherubrim-faced children was now a misfit group of awkward adolescents. It would have been wiser if the Odyssey producers had aimed for a single-season miniseries.
When it came to the storyline, they didn't plan ahead enough. The main goal of the first season was for Jay, Alpha, and Flash to make it to the castle and see Brad. When they finally made it, you could almost hear the show's writers say, "Jeez, now what?" It hurt when Jay awoke from the coma as well. The show kind of lost that suspenseful edge.
This was an amazing show about a boy who suffers a fall from a tree-fort and goes into a coma. While in the coma, the boy (Jay) goes through a long adventure of the mind, meeting different people that he knows in real life (in the waking world) who have different roles in his dream, all the while struggling to re-awaken out of the coma. We even get to see how the real world and the dream world interact. Starring many Canadian child actors, including "Berg" from "Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place", this show was awesome. Unfortunately, it got bumped around once it was on American TV (namely the Sci-Fi channel), so the episodes weren't always together. But this show NEVER JUMPED.
