That was a pretty special episode there, i think.

Steve Guttenberg terrifies me in this show.

He is! He really scares me.

― Lars and Jagger (Ex Leon), Tuesday, 22 November 2005 02:05 (eighteen years ago) link

well, they kinda teased the charisma carpenter/duncan thing, but it's hard to get a read off anything from that last episode. but yeah even that, he's just a jock and not that particularly sensitive, funny or bright. she *was* an 09er, i guess.

The friendship between Veronica and Wallace didn't seem as well-written through the end of last year and into this one. With Duncan and Logan in the picture, he pops up more as a plot device, less as her confidant/best friend.

Tessa is/was a terrible actress.

Maybe that's because, essentially, the show is filtered through V's eyes, and her eyes failed to see Gromit as more than a means to an end only towards the end of the season when OMG WE ARE BFF!

just watching ep 6, now

I wish they'd stop saying ibeeza

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 23 November 2005 23:51 (eighteen years ago) link

i'm sorry.

― jeffrey (johnson), Thursday, 24 November 2005 00:28 (eighteen years ago) link

ibeeza, ibeeza, ibeeza

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 24 November 2005 00:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Americans would never be so pretentious as to poorly ape the Spanish pronunciation in some desperate bid for sophistication.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 24 November 2005 01:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Isn't the local name Eivissa (eye-vee-sa)? Ibeeza is a lot closer than Ibbeetha.

― Cressida Breem (neruokruokruokne?), Thursday, 24 November 2005 02:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm just kidding, we totally would be like that.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 24 November 2005 03:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I watched all of S1 this past weekend and JESUS CHRIST I AM STUPID FOR MISSING THIS LAST YEAR. I want to personally thank Mel and all other like-minded soulds for bugging enough people to watch this that it got a second season; I won't let you down again, I promise!

p.s. Who gives a shit about Lost? My problem with the Wednesday 9 p.m. timeslot is that it falls at the same time as MythBusters!

Alternate ending of the last episode.

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 2 December 2005 06:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Booo, the alternate ending is kind of lame.

I'm willing to bet the kid isn't Duncan's - it's too easy, the parallels between Duncan/Veronica and Jake/Lianne and everything. They're setting it up so that Duncan looks like a dick, but comes out clean in the end.

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 2 December 2005 06:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Alternate ending not available for non-Americans

― alex in montreal (alex in montreal), Friday, 2 December 2005 15:35 (eighteen years ago) link

At the end, the mother of the pregnant girl comes in and smothers her daughter (while Veronica hides behind a curtain), Veronica goes over to pick up the pillow and a nurse walks in going "WHAT DID YOU DO?"

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Friday, 2 December 2005 19:09 (eighteen years ago) link

Okay...I don't understand the point of the alternate ending...

― Gukbe (lokar), Saturday, 3 December 2005 02:56 (eighteen years ago) link

They were voting to see which was more popular (and would determine the storyline, presumably). Veronica would be accused of murder, have to prove her innocence, etc.

I'm glad they didn't go that route.

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Saturday, 3 December 2005 03:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, that sounds like something Lost would do!!! OMg1!

― Keep the juices flowing by jangling around gentleee as you move (Leee), Saturday, 3 December 2005 04:00 (eighteen years ago) link

There was no point to the alternate ending and it was never intended to be part of the continuity. It's just a weird little gimmick.

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Saturday, 3 December 2005 10:34 (eighteen years ago) link

"Yeah, that sounds like something Lost would do!!! OMg1!"

I don't know, I mean, it would involve having to actually kill someone off.

Here's the URL, maybe this will work for non-US people? - http://pdl.stream.aol.com/aol/us/aolentertainment/tv/2005/filtered/upn/veronica_mars_alternate_ending_113005_dl.mov

"Bright Morning Stars Are Rising" -- nice.

The last two episodes have been great, if a little confusing.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 4 December 2005 20:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I've never read this thread because I only got started on the 1st season DVDs recently -- awaiting disks 3 & 4 now from Netflix and I could just jump up and down with impatience. WHY OH WHY DIDN'T I LIST THEM NEXT?! It does occasionally recall Buffy, mostly just in snippets of dialogue or V's delivery in certain moments, but not in any way that makes my eyeballs roll under the furniture so that's all right. And isn't her dad the living BEST?!

― Laurel (Laurel), Sunday, 4 December 2005 20:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Any word on a third season yet? I know the ratings still suck, but you'd think UPN enjoys the positive press.

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Sunday, 4 December 2005 20:56 (eighteen years ago) link

I hear next year the show will be placed against Desperate Housewives.

― Michael F Gill (Michael F Gill), Sunday, 4 December 2005 21:19 (eighteen years ago) link

Laurel is right about things.

― jeffrey (johnson), Sunday, 4 December 2005 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

Charisma Carpenter is really fantastic in this.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 4 December 2005 22:31 (eighteen years ago) link

Is Alyson Hannigan a terrible actress or just doing a fine job playing a terrible actress?

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Sunday, 4 December 2005 22:32 (eighteen years ago) link

You mean fantastit?

― Keep the juices flowing by jangling around gentleee as you move (Leee), Sunday, 4 December 2005 22:33 (eighteen years ago) link

If you have to ask...

xpost that too!

VERONICA
Kind of a weird question, but is that your real hair color, Astrid?

ASTRID
You're right -- that is a weird question.

VERONICA
Flatulent sound effects for me???

CINDY
And bitter ranting for me!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 4 December 2005 23:02 (eighteen years ago) link

Is that Mac's real name, Cindy?

So are Mac and the rich kid going to hit it?

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Sunday, 4 December 2005 23:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Her name is Cindy MacKenzie.

I really really hope not.

UPN's Veronica Mars site is a joke, by the way.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 4 December 2005 23:07 (eighteen years ago) link

My big plan is to buy this somewhere on the Upper West Side today.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 5 December 2005 13:44 (eighteen years ago) link

I can't believe they did a 12 Angry Men episode. So played.

― Erick Dampier is better than Shaq (miloaukerman), Thursday, 8 December 2005 03:12 (eighteen years ago) link

actually, I don't think the ratings are that bad. They have steadily improved and the fanbase just LOVES IT. So I bet there will be a third season, thank goodness. UPN ratings are never that great, it seems. Going to go watch the new episode now!

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Thursday, 8 December 2005 05:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Tonight's episode sucked. Gah. And on the one night when Lost wasn't playing against it.

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Thursday, 8 December 2005 07:03 (eighteen years ago) link

That's too bad. The last three before this have been outstanding.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 8 December 2005 07:27 (eighteen years ago) link

two weeks pass...

My sister and I watched Season 1, Discs 2 and 3 back to back last night and went to bed with large headaches. We would have kept watching if only we didn't have to wait for Netflix to send reimbursements.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 28 December 2005 05:51 (eighteen years ago) link

This season is just not nearly as good. At this point I've lost the motivation to watch the show when it airs.

― polyphonic (polyphonic), Wednesday, 28 December 2005 09:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Sadly, I think I agree. I am holding out hope that things will get better when Duncan fucks off permanently.

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Wednesday, 28 December 2005 15:48 (eighteen years ago) link

I disagree. I think this season is great! Whatever, I am known to blindly follow shows I love. But I do think it'd be tough for anyone to come up with new material after such a huge mystery is solved, and I think they've done a good job. Although I won't disagree that duncan should maybe fuck off.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Wednesday, 28 December 2005 16:57 (eighteen years ago) link

four weeks pass...

Finally a new episode!

― c(''c) (Leee), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 20:01 (eighteen years ago) link

I think Britt Daniels is on tonight's episode.

― ShawShank Rambo Connection (Carey), Wednesday, 25 January 2006 20:07 (eighteen years ago) link
