Veronica Mars premiere

Ok, for Veronica Mars I'm going to do that annoying stream-of-consciousness-reactions-as- I- watch thing, since I have neither time nor brain capacity to write anything more coherent tonight:

Spoilers behind the cut, obviously



Wow, that criminology thing was simply designed to make Veronica alienate the TA, right? Is he going to turn out to be the rapist? I do like that she's taking criminology, though.

I'm enjoying the LoVe while it lasts, but I'm glad I'm not committed to it--I just don't see a happy ending for these two.

Oh, Keith Mars, how are you so awesome?

The dorm room, as usual, is about 5 times the size of a real dorm room. Piz is much cuter in motion than the stills of him I've seen, though.

THE RA IS A BSG FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, perfectly dorky (oolong!)

OK, I realize they want to introduce the rape storyline early in the season, so I will forgive them for a violation of reality even bigger than the dorm room size: there's no way the students are organized enough to have a protest the first day of classes. Much less a counter protest.

That's a much faster resolution to the Kendall stuff than I was expecting

I don't have any real comments on Mac's silly roommate; I'm just so happy Mac is a regular now I don't care if her roommate is going to be a giant stereotype. Which will only be for 2 or 3 episodes on this show, anyway, and then they'll make us care about her or give her an interesting backstory. I actually really love that about this show.

Dammit, my cable went out in the middle of the Mac/Dick scene. Did I miss anything important? Fortunately it came back, or I would have been REALLY mad.

Shit, it just did it again--no picture, just sound. Dammit. WHat am I missing with Keith? This is annoying, it's only my CW channel--everything else is working fine.

Oh, Veronica, I love when you are smooth, getting into the TA's office.

It kills me when Logan is romantic. Though he also looks surprisingly good using a taser.

Oh, Kendall. I'm a little sad. And KEITH! ALONE IN THE DESERT! Don't hurt Keith!!

Dick staying with Logan? Oh, that's not going to be fun. But I do love sympathetic Logan, even though to be honest I do not feel much sympathy for Dick, despite everything.

OH. I guess my prediction about making the annoying roommate sympathetic turned out to be accurate really quickly. But that's a good way to bring Veronica into the case quickly.


In short, I LOVE VERONICA MARS!!

Many, many fabulous lines in this episode, so many I can't even keep up, but here are a few that I caught:

"I didn't think it was possible to make you more Butch?"
"What brings you to the good part of the wrong side of the tracks?"
"Wondertwin powers activate"
"You should seriously consider going pro." "What, and miss the college experience?"
The whole saturn/neptune/mars/uranus exchange cracked me up, but I didn't get it down, alas

Ahhh, so much of your thoughts are mine. I completely love VM, it pwns!!!

And Keith, love to Daddy Mars. :)

Daddy Mars always gets a big resounding, "Yay!" from me. :)

It's back! IT'S BACK!!

I kind of love how Veronica was brought into it, I mean, part of her thing is personal involvement in the case and this way she gets to feel guilty because of the car keys (also hopefully this means it's not going to happen to her friends, which is silly to say but um...I just want to cuddle Mac all the time and would cry if that happened) Image

p.s I LOVE DICK.

Sorry, late in responding to comments. Yesterday was insane. I don't remember the part about the car keys--what happened?

Oh, they better not let Mac be assaulted! But considering what Cassidy already did to her, I don't think they would.

I love how "I love Dick" is all double-entendre-y.

I so love that show, and I love Veronica. (and the best thing about that butch-line: Veronica sitting/ slouching on the bench like guys sit, all "wide". And I love that Logan is drawn to the idea, as well as recognises the situation being that Veronica is cooler than thou -thus, a bit like Xander was to Buffy: drwn to the idea of her strenght-)

Oh, she totally was doing the whole Clint Eastwood thing. It was great! And yeah, I like that Logan (and Piz and Wallace) are drawn to her because of her strength.

*sniffle* I know there's not going to be a happy ending with the LoVe, but I still just *love* it so much! I think it's just because I love Logan so much, and yet, I still can't really believe that I *do* love Logan so much, I look back at that psychotic jackass and am amazed.

From the recap: "A Saturn for a Mars." Veronica adds, "In Neptune! The planets really aligned for this one. Now, move Uranus! The mercury is rising." Hee!

I have so much love for Veronica Mars. It's kind of crazy.

Thanks for finding that whole quote! Hee hee!

I love Logan and I love Veronica, but really it's not a very healthy relationship for either of them, I think.
