JK has 4x the google hits, an Oscar and a big MCU part! not close.

i rewatched the show last year and spent the first half of season one tabulating every racist joke logan makes at weevil's expense, but as soon as logan and veronica kissed the goddamn memory wipe happened all over again
― american bradass (BradNelson), Monday, 29 July 2019 20:11 (four years ago) link
Season 5 should be Maddie and Veronica Cagney and Laceying it up in Chicago or something.

I would watch roughly 10,000 more seasons of this length/quality regardless of setting tbh

yeah I just want to see her zinging people, solving mysteries, and sometimes getting blindsided by one of her close friends or family members telling her she's CROSSED THE LINE this time.

DUNCAN KANE IS BACK AND HE'S STILL EXPRESSIONLESS
I got taken in by this and kept expecting him to pop up, so well played.

so happy there was no Piz
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 30 July 2019 01:12 (four years ago) link
i unfortunately love piz but i'm fine with him not being here, feel like that relationship is pretty expired by the movie
― american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 30 July 2019 02:46 (four years ago) link
anyway i enjoyed this very much despite some loose moments as i mentioned earlier. feel like they could get into a real groove with another season pls
logan was doomed, rip :((((((((

^^^ sorry ENORMOUS SPOILER i forgot everyone was being coy

can’t believe Piz gunned him down, really a left turn in the plot

lol

Maddie was very good, I though. Well inserted.

I have two episodes left to go but Jason Dohring is really bringing that izombie catatonic acting to VM.
― Yerac, Monday, 12 August 2019 15:42 (four years ago) link
the overall banter though is still so delightful though.

Need to watch! Thank you for reminder!
― ian, Monday, 12 August 2019 16:05 (four years ago) link
I needed more of Veronica's new dog. Also, had the same strong dislike of new theme song at first but now it's whatevs.
― Yerac, Monday, 12 August 2019 16:15 (four years ago) link
I need them to greenlight another season
― president of deluded fruitcakes anonymous (silby), Monday, 12 August 2019 16:17 (four years ago) link
yeah not a fan of the new theme song, sorry Chrissie.
not enough Wallace or Weevil this season imo, Mac was missed, though I enjoyed the extended time with Dep... Agent Leo, my second favourite Veronica boyfriend.
and lol @ all the former villains (Liam Fitzpatrick, Tim the TA, Mercer the rapist) showing up for exactly one scene each.
― Roz, Monday, 12 August 2019 16:39 (four years ago) link
Love Logan but he did seem a trifle lobotomized this season, I can see what Veronica was complaining about.

using the phrase "by NY Times best-selling author L. Ron Hubbard" on a flier for a seminar held at the actual CoS Celebrity Center is some amazing "we're reeling in people who know as little as possible" work
going to drop it now, but this is good sc1entology thread material and I don't want to sully the VM thread
― untuned mass damper (mh), Tuesday, 13 August 2019 15:58 (four years ago) link
ha, I almost brought up the scientology thing but I didn't want to make a mean joke because I haven't finished the final two episodes yet and saw the spoilers above.
― Yerac, Tuesday, 13 August 2019 16:23 (four years ago) link
yeah Hulu is only available through Crave in Canada so you have to pay for two services to get at it, which fuck that tbh
Wait, I only had to pay for Crave to watch it. I binged it over the last two days since I had a cold. Ending = holy shit. It was addictive and good drama/suspense. I do appreciate how they've adapted the show to everyone being 15 years older. Not sure if it was good mystery.
― All along there is the sound of feedback (Sund4r), Thursday, 29 August 2019 04:06 (four years ago) link
yeah the mystery was kinda “Agatha Christie starter kit”
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 29 August 2019 04:18 (four years ago) link
tbh the mysteries on the show have never been all that great/distinctive. they're more just skeletons to hang the characters, relationships, perilous ethical/moral landscape and mood on.

s1 had the best one and it was pretty much just Twin Peaks redux
― Simon H., Thursday, 29 August 2019 04:24 (four years ago) link
Hm, well, Twin Peaks reimagined as a naturalistic traditional mystery story is p much what I want from TV. Even with that one, though, iirc, the answer was m/l just revealed via the deux ex machina of the videotapes in the last episode? I feel like there were some solid mysteries of the week, which they've done away with altogether, although I'd have to rewatch to recall what they were.
― All along there is the sound of feedback (Sund4r), Friday, 30 August 2019 19:59 (four years ago) link
Rewatching s1 does seem like a good use of the month of Crave I've signed up for.

Speaking of Peaks-a-like shows: I found the first season of Northern Exposure for 25p a couple of days ago. That was compared to TP a lot, wasn’t it? I don’t think I ever watched it.

compared?? related 'quirky' northwest settings maybe but
― j., Friday, 30 August 2019 20:24 (four years ago) link
lol yeah that is not a good comparison at all
VM is more bad-ass PI (meaning a cop without a police structure) than sherlock-style clue detection for sure
― rob, Friday, 30 August 2019 20:29 (four years ago) link
Veronica's deep, deep damage really coming to the forefront in this season made for fascinating viewing, I thought, great writing and great exploration of the character from Kristen Bell.
― president of deluded fruitcakes anonymous (silby), Friday, 30 August 2019 20:32 (four years ago) link
Yep, and it helped them to sidestep the most obvious/familiar potential sources of drama btwn Veronica and Logan (ie infidelity, Logan being a fuckup, etc)
― Simon H., Friday, 30 August 2019 20:34 (four years ago) link
I don't see how they can do veronica dirtier than they did this season but if they make another I'm sure they'll figure out a way b/c the genre probably demands that she won't get a break

I'm not the only one! https://www.rollingstone.com/tv/tv-lists/20-tv-shows-most-influenced-by-twin-peaks-126797/northern-exposure-114701/ I'm just dimly remembering marketing from nearly 30 years ago...
