Veronica Mars

Rob Thomas said of all the television he has ever made, he is proudest of tomorrow's episode of VM.

oh wow. i'm so excited!

He submitted it for Emmy consideration (along with the pilot and Clash of the Tritons)!

wow, that's quite a big claim.

I wonder what will be the arc of the second series then, if it's all solved.

oh and also, the logan kiss?!

Heh, what about it?

Other than...mmmmm. Logan.

I was really shocked by it because - of course besides the obvious sizzling sexual tension between them - they are really two people who shouldn't have kissed, if truth be told, but it was completely believable.

I love the way they've shaded out the veronica - logan relationship.

It makes some sort of sense, as on a base level Veronica and Logan are very similar kids dealing with grief in their own caustic and defensive way.

'Veronica Mars' Given Early Second-Season Renewal

(April 2005) - Warner Bros. International Television's critically acclaimed series "Veronica Mars" has been given an early pickup for a second season, with network heads lauding its fine cast, writing and production.

The one-hour drama was created by Rob Thomas and is executive produced by Thomas and Joel Silver.

"Veronica Mars" stars Kristen Bell ("Spartan," "Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical") in the title role as a high school student turned private investigator following the murder of her best friend. Veronica used to be one of the popular girls, but it all came crumbling down around her after Lilly was killed, and her then sheriff father, Keith (Enrico Colantoni - "Full Frontal), was removed from office for naming Lilly's rich dad as the lead suspect. During the day, Veronica negotiates high school like any average teenage girl. But at night, she helps with her father's struggling, new private investigator business--and what she finds may tear the seaside town of Neptune, California, apart at the seams.

In the first season finale, viewers learn ... well... watch CTV and see for yourself.

"Veronica Mars" is produced by Silver Pictures Television in association with and distributed by Warner Bros. International Television Distribution Inc. Production services provided by Stu Segall Productions Inc.

Aaaargh, they still haven't decided on when they're gonna broadcast the first season. It's still "Coming soon"... I'm *only* anticipating this because of this thread's existence and casual references to Buffy.

oh you should definitely be anticipating it -- it is super great!

I think he did an awesome job with the veronica/logan relationship and I'm sure it won't last, even if I want it to. I watched the extended preview for tonight's episode a couple of times, and it's gonna be intense. Don't forget to watch everyone! Even though I think only Melissa and Cozen read this thread. HEY GUYS.

this show is exactly like one of the best shows ever.

Holy crap.

what show would that be?

and yes, HOLY CRAP! that was intense.

Next week's episode looks even more intense. Pins and needles.

this isn't better, than lost, is it?

Totally better. It's at least twice the show that Lost is. If not more.

does it have polar bears?

I really liked the couple episodes of this show that I've seen, but I can't watch it just tivo can't record three things at once, and I've already got it booked for Gilmore Girls and American Idol.

It has better things than polar bears, like character development and well-plotted storylines and really good dialogue.

who knows.

really now.

Who knows what?

if lost is better or if veronica mars is better.

anyway, I can't wait to watch this new holy shit episode.

I know, because I watch both shows.

grrrrant kinda reminds me of how I used to envision j.williams being

This show is far better than Lost, and I quite like Lost. Ditto Gilmore Girls (which is luckily on at immediately preceding Veronica Mars here). Veronica >>>>>>>>>>> Rory. But Lorelai > Keith. Paris v. Wallace is a dead heat.

Tonight we find out who killed Lilly Kane!

I can't wait! And I don't know if I agree that LORELAI is better than Keith. I LOVE KEITH.

Veronica Mars is played by this girl who used to live next door to me at an NYU dorm. I used to hang out in her room all the time. She's so adorable.

I don't know if I can stop myself from looking at spoiler sites!

predictions cast: veronica's mum or duncan's mum!

either way, one of the mums, maybe wallace's.

*can't wait*

Phil... I think you actually mentioned that on another thread once. I've always wanted to ask you about a bunch of NYU people. But I won't on this thread because I don't want them googling!

OMG less than 2 hours to go!

Well, I didn't see that coming. They pulled it off quite well though, given the amount of "oh -- wait, what?" moments in the last few episodes.

also gotta love the "stay tuned for next season" cliffhangers.

man, i guess they'da had to cut those if the show had been canned.

I ♥ this show.

no spoilers please!

or give spoiler warnings, so we can still discuss the show here.

this programme is OK but a bit boring.

just watched ep. 7, I think. the pregnant sarah goes missing. the bits were v. obvious.

having read some of this thread--

tep is not very good, here, and cozen is good and then bad and then, I assume, good.

The episode with the pregnant girl is widely considered to be one of the worst episodes.

Good stuff with Weevil and Logan in that one, though.

haha

ep. 8 was pretty good.

veronica's cute.

logan's mum's lips are ridiculous.

I like the lawyer.

other obvious and silly stuff.

just after I posted that, ep. 12 ended and I feel bad.

: ((

amanda is addicted to this show.

: )

the best thing about the suge knight ep.="we used to be friends...a long time ago---"a long time ago, we used to be friends...""

maybe only the really ridiculous episodes are without obvious big bits.

ep. 16-the notwist w/ veronica's mom in barstow

others-air when logan and weevil are painting over the graffiti-stereophonics at the hippy commune

other others?
