Veronica Mars Rewatch – “Drinking the Kool-Aid”
Poor Veronica is going through a bit of a rough patch after Abel Koontz told her that her father is really Jake Kane. Now the implications of that possibility are really starting to sink in … is he her father? Does her father know? … and what does that mean for her former relationship with … Continue reading
Veronica Mars Rewatch – “Return of the Kane”
This is an episode of fatherly relationships — namely Jake Kane, Aaron Echolls, and Keith Mars. Jake Kane, until this point, has really been shown in mixed light as he’s still considered a suspect in his daughter’s murder. But it’s hard to see him as a cold-blooded killer after watching his interactions with Duncan in … Continue reading
Veronica Mars Rewatch – “You Think You Know Somebody”
While watching this episode, I can’t help but think of the Wizard’s First Rule from the Sword of Truth series: “People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it’s true, or because they are afraid it might … Continue reading
Veronica Mars Rewatch – “The Wrath of Con”
This episode can be easily split into two halves–the case of the week and memories of Lilly.

In this case, the haves are the 09ers… those who live in the desirable 90909 zip code. The poster children for the 09ers are Logan Echolls and his current girlfriend Caitlin Ford. Unfortunately, this … Continue reading

You can watch the Pilot episode for free on TheWB.com Television pilots are a tricky business. All at once they have to establish everything about the show–the characters, the tone, the ongoing story–while hooking in viewers for the long haul. Some shows end up looking A LOT different from the pilot, even just a few … Continue reading
A Long Time Ago… We Used To Be Friends
Just remember me, when you’re good to go… Veronica and I weren’t besties right away. I was in college when the show was on the air, so I had a limited amount of time for TV shows. As a result, I was unfortunately late to the party with shows like Veronica Mars and 24. At … Continue reading

Here’s a look at what I have on the DVR on Tuesday nights (all of these shows really start to add up by this time in the week!): DON’T TRUST THE B—- IN APARTMENT 23 I was a bit caught off guard last season when I liked this show and now, at the start of … Continue reading
