WTF JUST HAPPENED?
Okay. Here we go.
1. Veronica in jail was funny and very entertaining. Damn, she's cool. We should put her behind bars more often. Just saying.
2. And nice to see Vinny again.
3. So who planted the bug?
4. LoVe interaction was weird. The whole "we're adults" thing was kinda flippant and undermines their 'epic' relationship for the past 2 years. I don't like them being all friendly. I'd rather they bitch at each other.
5. Dude. Logan totally memorized the entire Karma Sutra.
6. Bronson/Mac is cute. Please don't let Bronson be some psycho guy again.
7. Logan/Parker? Meh. Don't ship 'em, don't hate 'em. Might change though.
8. ♥ Cliff.
9. I saw a lot of wtf-reaction posts on my flist, and I honestly thought Keith was gonna get shot in the house, but I guess not. Thankfully not.
10. Yeah, the final WTF. Lamb doing stupid things, getting himself beaten. Him shooting the mirror was all kinds of funny. BUT DUDE, ROB THOMAS, YOU DON'T HAVE TO KILL HIM OFF. JUST PUT HIM IN A COMA OR SOMETHING. Damnit, I like Lamb. He's the only main guy out there who doesn't think much of Veronica Mars, and he was comic relief, and he was, in some ways, the antagonist to Keith. I know Rob Thomas wants Keith to step in as sheriff again, but come on. I don't really like Keith to step in permanently as the sheriff either. For the longest time, this show has portrayed the authorities as incompetent, and Keith and Veronica have always been the Mars Investigations. It just feels strange now.
You know what I think? This show has diverted so much from its first season. Someone once commented that Season 1 of Veronica Mars was the anti-soap, putting down the so-called cool, popular, pretty kids that so many other shows put on a pedestal, emphasizing on the loners, the unpopular. Veronica being ostracized by her school mates, Keith being kicked off his sheriff post. Of course once Lilly's case was solved, things should change, but all of a sudden Veronica was a celebrity, hanging out with the high and mighty, juggling two of the hottest, cutest guys in school. It really hit me this season when that guy who works in the hotel told her she wouldn't ever recognize him, and it was true. It wasn't like the old Veronica. And the way this season has been, the LoVe situation, the cheating, someone tell me that isn't soap-y at all. Not to mention those cheesy things the CW likes to call promos. Remember that completely misleading one about Veronica being pregnant? Damnit! If I wanted to see pregnancy scares and sleeping around with people you shouldn't, I'd watch One Tree Hill (which I do, but that's not the point).
Honestly, this episode wasn't bad. The comic and the suspense were all in the right places, and I enjoyed it quite a bit (except for Lamb dying) . But it's just not the old Veronica Mars I love so much.
Just my opinion, yo. I still love Veronica Mars. Just in a different way.
But why kill Lamb? =(
Okay. Here we go.

YEAH. I know, there's no one to annoy them now ...oh there's still Vinny!
This show has diverted so much from its first season.
don't alot of shows? :( yup, this season has been messy, the mystery arcs too.

*sighs* It just wasn't what it used to be.

I must say that as angry as I've been at Veronica lately, it was refreshing to see Logan just being able to be himself with someone even as a friend. Plus I read a ficlet a friend of mine wrote a few weeks ago that got the Logan/Parker thing in my mind, so I might could be swayed that way.
Anyway, I'm babbly, but loved your review and feel pretty much the same across the board. Especially about those terrible frakkin' promo's!
(no subject)
True, it's nice to see Logan happy.
Those promos are just ridiculous! Especially where they cut out the 'not' from Veronica's "I'm not pregnant." speech. That was just plain ridiculous.

and i totally agree with you on how the show has changed since the first season..i gotta admit, when i first heard about Veronica Mars, i thought i woudln't like her, but she was great in the first season, and actually after that she started to become a leading character being able to get on my nerves sometimes, i might have even dedicated one whole post just for that :) She became much more selfish if not anything else. i know she has trust issues after what happened in the past and all but she's usually taking it out on the wrong people, and her reasoning for things has defiitely gotten worse..i could go on with this, but i don't want to take much space here :) i guess i still have leftover anger for Veronica after all..

Oh I got spoilt for Lamb's death but I still find it sad/annoying. I dont get why RT did that. It just seems like a plot device to me kinda like Meg's death in s2. I understand why people are going all crazy over it. Im not like the biggest Lamb fan but I kinda liked him and he was one of THE VM characthers.
Haha I dont know what I feel bout Logan/Parker yet...
Oh I dont really like keith being sheriff either but im not like totally bothered by it like some people.
i guess overall I thougth that the episode was ok but I didnt think it was that great. I still like the show because I accept that it's different from what it once was and it cant ever be that again.

It just feels strange seeing Keith become sheriff again. I don't know. It's just weird.
(no subject)
I totally agree with you !
I'm also shocked about Lamb's death, I'll miss him. Keith in sheriff, that sucks. I'm gonna miss Mars Investigations too. Rob, what did you do ?
