RE: VM- I know! She got maybe 3 minutes of screen time? Which doesn't bother me because it means they've just got to have LOTS more for her to do. I don't know that it would convert new watchers, though. The show is smart enough that they don't verbally reiterate the importance of a new development- my roomate was watching for the first time, and I had to fill her in on everything; "That's Duncan! Veronica's sad because it's her ex. That's Veronica's mom! Veronica is happy to see her because blah blah blah."

Those without tour guides may have not fared so well.

ETA: Or, what sumi said.

What was that word he used about the Rapture? Something akin to "contentious"?

"Tendentious," I believe.

Veronica kissed that Tubbs dude because it was in the script.

She will end up with the other Logan...

Wait. The drugs are kicking in.

I think we figured that she watched shows she liked that were "right here on PBS," so PBS=good, I shall name my stick PBS. And I figured Chocolate Milk might have gotten her name through similar reasoning.

Oh, sumi, maybe. I don't usually watch SVU, but saw that one episode.

And I figured Chocolate Milk might have gotten her name through similar reasoning.

Exactly so, just less intellectual.

"Tendentious," I believe.

That might be it.

I didn't know that the whole Rapture thing was tendentious.

When I was a kid, I used to pray that I'd be alive when the Rapture happened, so I wouldn't have to die.

SUV: Personally I was just squeeing at seeing Skinner. That was a damn cute kid, too.

Speaking of SVU, I just saw an add for another L&O today. I hadn't realized they were doing that. Trial by Jury. One day, the only think on network t.v. will be L&O. Oh, and I saw that Jerry Orbach was in it, too. And then I missed him again.

PC- I kind of worried about that too -- it was very arc-y. Excellent for regular viewers but not so good for people who are just trying it out for the Aly.

Well, it wasn't just that. It felt kind of off. I think it was all downhill from the moment Meg, in all seriousness, put forth the idea that her secret admirer might be her soulmate. And so the A plot felt kind of lame, which made everything else feel disjointed. Though it was cool how the various plots had superficial connections (the model home, the sketch artist, etc.). It lacked focus, I guess.
