All your Padres big upping is what set it in stone. ; )

Do people here know that Weevil is FRANK CAPRA'S grandson?

― Leeeeeeeeee (Leee), Monday, 17 October 2005 18:28 (twenty years ago)

It's that time again.

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Wednesday, 19 October 2005 22:27 (twenty years ago)

Do people know that Weevil was in Shaquille O'Neal's Kazaam!?

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Wednesday, 19 October 2005 22:29 (twenty years ago)

He was also in one of the Free Willy movies.

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Wednesday, 19 October 2005 22:45 (twenty years ago)

I love it when Sheriff Mars gets physical with a perp. They switch to a super-wide lens, get all hand-held and he goes crazy for a couple of minutes. So much better than any cop show still on TV.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Sunday, 23 October 2005 06:43 (twenty years ago)

Melissa's falling down on the job.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Thursday, 27 October 2005 04:00 (twenty years ago)

I blame me.

REALLY good episode, which is the par, it seems!

― Leeeeeeeeee (Leee), Thursday, 27 October 2005 04:08 (twenty years ago)

It's amazing how much more I enjoy a show when I actually care about the characters. Lost had better get good fast or I'm switching to VM full time.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Thursday, 27 October 2005 04:13 (twenty years ago)

I watched the dvd. This show is consistantly better than Lost with less annoying characters. The directors of Lost have no sense of pacing. I also love Logan, though find him unattractive. Just goes to show how much girls love assholes.

― Mendoza Lineman (Carey), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:09 (twenty years ago)

enough of the adversarial LOST nonsense, please

― c7n (Cozen), Thursday, 27 October 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

sorry carey!!

― c7n (Cozen), Thursday, 27 October 2005 16:39 (twenty years ago)

Ha, I just realized what the Lost controversy was last night. They are on at the same time!

― Mendoza Lineman (Carey), Thursday, 27 October 2005 17:01 (twenty years ago)

logan is like a better sawyer who I dislike more

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 27 October 2005 17:03 (twenty years ago)

I'd do him!

― Mendoza Lineman (Carey), Thursday, 27 October 2005 17:20 (twenty years ago)

you are what's wrong with this world

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 27 October 2005 18:36 (twenty years ago)

SORRY RICARDO

― Mendoza Lineman (Carey), Thursday, 27 October 2005 21:31 (twenty years ago)

They did indulge in one awful dramatic cliche - one person walking in as another person does somethign that the first person said not to do (Veronica harassing the new girl), but mysteriously they're never able to communicate the Very Good Reason that it happened.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Thursday, 27 October 2005 22:07 (twenty years ago)

I don't think Wallace walked in per se -- he was just standing in an obscured place. But yeah, V's reaction was like, woh. But hahaha the meta! It really is Veronica Mars's world -- it's named after her!

Wallace dumped whatsherface, right? I already forget.

― Leeeeeeeeee (Leee), Thursday, 27 October 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

series REALLY hitting its stride now

― c7n (Cozen), Friday, 28 October 2005 19:24 (twenty years ago)

I watched the '80s dance/Meg/mobster episode last night - holy shit, so good. I think it took five or six episodes to really get in a groove, but at this point (and including S2), it might be my favorite television show ever.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Friday, 28 October 2005 19:31 (twenty years ago)

that was a pretty special episode.

― jeffrey (johnson), Saturday, 29 October 2005 00:12 (twenty years ago)

Ok, call me dumb, but could somebody explain the last episode's plot to me? Jackie wants to get back at Veronica - I get that. So, what - she lies about having her credit card stolen, and buys some candles that she saw at the fortune teller's? Is her friend with the new jacket in on it too? How did the fortune teller find out about that MammoMax thing - I mean, obviously "from Jackie," but she's getting her psychic info from that audience plant, did Jackie just go up to the plant and say "hey, here's some info about someone who's going to be on the show, you should use it"? Was the fortune teller in on the thing too?

― The Yellow Kid, Saturday, 29 October 2005 04:26 (twenty years ago)

yeah, the fortune teller lifted the credit card number in order to buy lots of candles, it seems.. but what about the jacket and the bag..?

ok, i don't really follow this show, clearly, but i like it, and i'd like someone to explain how veronica is so out of it.. i.e. the psychic show - "everyone at neptune high watches it!" - but veronica's unaware of its existence??

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Saturday, 29 October 2005 18:16 (twenty years ago)

Jackie bought stuff that Cora and the fortune teller had also bought from the same places they bought them (she's friends with Cora and would have heard from her about shopping trips: where and what, I'm not so sure about the candles but she probably found out the same way Veronica did or maybe bought them herself as a present for the psychic), then lead Veronica to think they were the two possible suspects and let her work out that they owned things bought from the same place that someone had used Jackie's credit card. The psychic is usually getting her info from the plant, but in this case Jackie is friends with her and told her about the breast cream aswell. The whole of Neptune knows about Veronica being friends with Lily, so that bit could have come from anywhere. Veronica being unaware of the whole programme was a bit silly though.

The whole thing was a set up from Jackie, but it didn't seem well planned if the whole point was to let the world know that Veronica used breast cream, that was something that Veronica told her quite late on. It seems a bit weird to plan something so meticulously yet have the whole thing rely on a piece of embarrassing information that you may never get. It wasn't brilliantly written.

― Cressida Breem (neruokruokruokne?), Saturday, 29 October 2005 19:59 (twenty years ago)

I don't think the psychic's lily message was part of the set-up

― c7n (Cozen), Saturday, 29 October 2005 20:02 (twenty years ago)

That probably wasn't very clear - the psychic has a show and usually uses the plant to get info from guests. The psychic may have been in on the revenge thing, or she may have had Jackie tell her that she knows someone who's coming on as a guest and "accidentally" dropped some info into the conversation, and the psychic uses any information she can get her hands on.

xpost No it wasn't, I'm starting to think she wasn't actually in on it, as there would be no point in trying to amaze Veronica with knowledge about Lily as she'd know Veronica would work out it was a set up by the end. Maybe Jackie claimed she had known Lily and Lily had told her about the cream, as it was "Lily" who mentioned the cream when the psychic talked to Veronica.

― Cressida Breem (neruokruokruokne?), Saturday, 29 October 2005 20:06 (twenty years ago)

also: wallace can't sing for shit!!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Saturday, 29 October 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

The idea may have been that Jackie needed a reason to get closer to Veronica so she could dig up some dirt.

The intricacies of the weekly mystery never seem to fit together perfectly, but they're usually not so noticeable (as in this week, I get the point even if it's not completely sensible).

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Saturday, 29 October 2005 20:44 (twenty years ago)

Right, I think that's a good way of putting it - I get the story they're trying to tell, even though the details of it seem off. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't missing some obvious plot point.

It did seem weird that all of Neptune watches this show, though. Logan and Duncan stop what they're doing to watch a cable-access psychic show? And I know Veronica's not part of the "in" crowd, but she is dating Duncan, you'd think she'd know about it.

― The Yellow Kid, Sunday, 30 October 2005 16:03 (twenty years ago)

I think duncan and logan only watched it because they knew veronica was going to be on

― c7n (Cozen), Sunday, 30 October 2005 16:47 (twenty years ago)

Is it a rerun of the premiere tomorrow night?

― Leeeeeeeeeee (Leee), Wednesday, 2 November 2005 04:22 (twenty years ago)

i can't can't can't stand the awful awful musical underscoring in this show; it comes mighty close to ruining the whole thing for me (although this is a complaint i have about every television show, to be fair, and many movies)

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 2 November 2005 04:46 (twenty years ago)

I hope there's a show this week.

― jeffrey (johnson), Wednesday, 9 November 2005 14:55 (twenty years ago)

According to Tvtome there is.

― Cressida Breem (neruokruokruokne?), Wednesday, 9 November 2005 16:29 (twenty years ago)

with a guest spot from Joss Whedon, even.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Wednesday, 9 November 2005 18:21 (twenty years ago)

Needs more Wallace. (ie some Wallace at all)

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Thursday, 10 November 2005 04:53 (twenty years ago)

Agreed, Wallace is fantastic.

― The Yellow Kid, Thursday, 10 November 2005 11:12 (twenty years ago)

Kristen Bell is on the Jimmy Kimmel show tonight.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 03:57 (twenty years ago)

Has anyone been following M@11@rd F!11m0r3? He talks about VM!

― Sonneywolferinecastleee (Leee), Thursday, 17 November 2005 06:49 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, it's scary to finally agree with MF.

But maybe he can explain the ending of last night's show to me.

― The Yellow Kid, Thursday, 17 November 2005 19:06 (twenty years ago)

mallard fillmore makes a goddamn snail darter joke; god save us all

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 17 November 2005 20:44 (twenty years ago)

snail darter, a small, rare fish, Percina tanasi, discovered by a zoologist who was snorkeling in the Little Tennessee River upstream from the projected Tellico Dam. Dam opponents, including Native American tribes who would see their burial grounds flooded, fought successfully to include the darter on the Endangered Species List in 1975 (see endangered species), and the dam was halted. In 1978, the Supreme Court sided with environmentalists, but Congress declared the fish nonendangered and the Tellico was built. Snail darters are classified in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, class Osteichthyes, order Percomorphi, family Percidae.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 17 November 2005 20:58 (twenty years ago)

That was the most surreal thing I've seen on TV since Twin Peaks.

― Sonneywolferinecastleee (Leee), Saturday, 19 November 2005 07:27 (twenty years ago)

I didn't like the ending, though. The sheriff is just going to watch the house, and not actually going to do anything to the parents?

― Lars and Jagger (Ex Leon), Saturday, 19 November 2005 14:25 (twenty years ago)

they had me with Rodney being the kid, but the Grace revelation blew me away. veronica getting her eyes covered by the mayor's daughter was a nice touch too.

― alex in montreal (alex in montreal), Saturday, 19 November 2005 16:34 (twenty years ago)

This one must set a record for most drawn-out opening title sequence in television history for a one-hour show. My VLC player says the last one comes twelve minutes in!

Best Veronica Mars in ages, btw, maybe ever?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 21 November 2005 05:18 (twenty years ago)

It seemed out of place - like it should have been two or three episodes ago. Very good, of course, but strange that it referred back to events that have been completely ignored for a couple of weeks and set up new plots that probably won't be referred to again.

Steve Guttenberg is still terrible, but I imagine the fight over his new richie-city vs. poor-county plan is going to be entertaining. Will Keith bite the hand that fed him, or will he sign on to police the city?

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Monday, 21 November 2005 05:22 (twenty years ago)

Steve Guttenberg terrifies me in this show. His neck is distracting.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 21 November 2005 05:24 (twenty years ago)

Only thing wrong with latest ep = irresistible tessa thompson and cool-as-cucumber francis capra both m.i.a. (i don't mind wallace being gone, actually, he bugs me for some reason. it was probably just his atrocious singing that time he met his dad in the supermarket.)

does anybody else think it's weird that veronica is basically dating an asshole, who we are asked to root for no less?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 21 November 2005 17:33 (twenty years ago)
