The Minearverse 4: Support Group for Clumsy People
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I bow to the superior wisdom of
Polter-Cow
and other VM posters in this thread, and to the quality recapping of Couch Baron at TWoP.
Watched the first 3 Veronica Mars episodes tonight (using voodoo magic, not the Internets, I swear) and I'm 100% on-board. That pilot was a great introduction to a complicatedly interesting premise, and the others kept the quality coming. Even having read the recaps of these episodes (I had to catch up for ep 11 tomorrow in reruns) and thus knowing the plot twists in advance, I enjoyed them immensely.
Rah rah! VM is great! I'm an idiot for not listening to the forty-seven thousand people who told me that earlier!
That'll teach me to half-watch half of an episode from halfway through the season.
The blue gloves amused me.
Mostly because we did a photo shoot with paramedics (pseudomedics? I don't know, they looked real enough) at work and one of the photos they wanted retouched was wanting bluer gloves.
So I smiled privately at the hands of blue. Even if it wasn't intentional.
I think they are nice for the fans and transparent to anyone else. No harm done.
Holy crap, it's 1:46 AM here? VM was even more engrossing than I thought.
Aaaaand I'm starting ep 4 rather than go to bed.
Ooh, good choice.
(Ownage!)
Of course, your beagle may vary.
My family's beagle is adorable but SO VIOLENT. It's sad, I think she's cuter when she's sick. But I've always liked children better when they're sleeping, and felt that way about my cat, too. Maybe that's why he ran away.
The BF says his problem with Wonderfalls was that Jaye was too unlikeable but I liked her a lot - but then I am frequently a snarky bitch as well.
This was true of my boyf and myself as well. He thought Jaye was mean, I thought she was funny. I saw the inner marshmallow, I think, and he didn't.
Most people watching the show have no idea who I am
I have to say, I found that shout-out VERY exciting and cool.
Aaaand... episode 5. Boy, this voodoo magic sure is handy for catching up on good TV shows.
Who the hell is it that Kristen Bell reminds me of? I can't figure it out.
edited to spell her name right
Come to think of it, I think she reminds me of SMG. At least with certain haircuts. That seems a little sad that I couldn't place it.
Jaye and Veronica both hooked me from the second they were on screen. Jaye moreso, but Veronica has my love now, and we'll never know how it would've worked if it was an even battlefield.
Now I have thoughts of Jaye and Veronica having a fight. A sexy fight.
I was disappointed with the first The Inside, but that was probably more about expectations than anything else. It improves each week, I was all aboard the way RN played Rebecca though, never saw what the problem was. I find myself looking forward to the next epsiode, which is all you can ask for really.
ION: *whisper it* I kinda liked the pilot of Bones.
Can someone ask Tim tonite, assuming that he shows up as before, whether or not any Inside folks are going to San Diego ComicCon...?
