What is even happening?

But... but... Cindy, you're missing "A Trip to the Dentist", which is possibly the best episode of the season and the one in which we learn all about Veronica's rape! (It's supposed to come right before "Leave It to Beaver".) Also, if you end up liking the show at all, I think you'll be distressed to get to the final frame of "M.A.D" and *not* get to watch the next episode, but jump to the finale.
Did that air last week?

I saw one of the boys confessing something to Veronica, as I was walking out of the room while an episode was TiVoing? I think it may have TiVo-ed, and that we forgot to set it to "Keep 'til I delete" or that one of the kids accidentally deleted it. It looked like an important episode, which is why I left the room. I didn't want to see it from halfway through.

Hey. New board.

It was definitely on last week. I watched about 10 minutes of it at Crush!Girl's apartment, which was enough to get her interested in seeing the series, so I changed the channel to avoid spoiling.

yep!

seriously, if you want me to send you the dvds, i will. the lovely faithx5 made them for me and the least i can do is pass them on to grab a new fan. you probably wouldn't be able to catch up before the premiere(sept 28), but you could tivo it until you did. *pimppimppimp*

Damn. Was there a lot of blue lighting in the night scenes? Never mind. I know that was the one I saw, because I actually understand the meaning behind the title.

That girl spat in someone's drink. The minutes I caught before I walked out of the room, made me realize Veronica thought it meant someone doing something more serious (I assumed drugging her drink with date-rape drug or something), but it was about some girl that spit in her drink.

The next scene I saw two seconds of had to do with one of the boys confessing something to her, but her seemingly understanding.

Crap. We let it delete. Urgh. TiVo should have a recovery feature, if you haven't filled your cache.

the blue lighting scenes are flashbacks. so yes, that episode is chock full of them.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Man, that moment when we got the reveal about the significance of the title of the episode was when I got down on my knees in front of the TiVo and did the "I'm not worthy" dance. But you know... you need the proper context to fully appreciate why that title is so freakin' brilliant.

  • nudges Cindy* I'd totally take advantage of tiggy's offer if I were you.

(What IS this about this fandom that makes such pimps out of its fans?)

I must be dense, but I either can't remember, or never got, the significance of the title aTttD. Can someone explain?

Oh, if there was any doubt, tiggy, I totally want to take advantage of your offer. I should have made that more clear.

After I pick up the kids, I will email you with my snailmail address.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Whitefonted for Cindy-protection: "A trip to the dentist" is someone spitting into a drink before they give it to you. Madison did that to her drink--which had been drugged--and handed it to Veronica, which is why she was drugged, which is why she had sex with Duncan.
