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

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.

Alternate ending not available for non-Americans

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.

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

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.

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

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

"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.

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?

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

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

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.

laugh with me

lemin (lemin), Thursday, 26 January 2006 14:57 (eighteen years ago) link

serious though, this episode was only marginally better than that one where her boyfriend randomly turned into an amphetamine junkie and ran away - and that one was easily the worst of the show. they could've taken this plotline in better directions, i think.

lemin (lemin), Thursday, 26 January 2006 15:25 (eighteen years ago) link

This show is running out of gas.

polyphonic (polyphonic), Thursday, 26 January 2006 19:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Eh. None of it made any sense, it felt like we skipped an episode (where they actually discussed the baby, Wallace explained why he came back, etc. etc.) and then they get into a tortured ordeal that makes no sense at all - he's the biological father, he could easily have sought a DNA test; why wasn't Veronica arrested at the end? Even with the blonde girl 'playing' Veronica at the apartment, they still had loads of evidence she was involved.

Whatever you do, don't read the TWOP boards re last weeks' show--my head is still swimming. Vernoica still does it for me.

Mary (Mary), Monday, 30 January 2006 05:31 (eighteen years ago) link

I bought the first season box set, it won't arrive till February the 14th though. Haven't seen season one in such a long time.

jeffrey (johnson), Monday, 30 January 2006 20:34 (eighteen years ago) link

What happened last night? My TV went out after the first 5 minutes and came back for the final 5 minutes. It seemed really boring anyway. I hate Wallace.

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 2 February 2006 19:33 (eighteen years ago) link

Beyond the obvious reasons not to read TWOP, why was it especially avoidable last week?
