Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Veronica Mars: Annoy, Tiny Blonde One. Annoy Like the Wind.

What is even happening?

Note to Cashmere: I typed "you man" when I meant "you mean". Corrected, now.

I was thrilled to see Aly, and I even get a kick out of the Trina character, but I'm very conscious that it is Aly playing a character, and I'm conscious of her trying to act, if that makes any sense. I'm not sure she was the best choice, but I'm too sentimental about the BtVS cast to be anything less than thrilled to have her on my screen in yet another show I love. I wish I could stand HIMYM. I did love Kitchen Confidential, and we know where that got it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Is everybody getting two hours of VM on Tuesday this week or just me? I wouldn't have noticed and reset my Tifaux to record properly if I hadn't just gotten a new DVR.

Per TVGuide, it looks like we are, too: My Mother, the Fiend, and One Angry Veronica.

I wonder if they're going to try to get all 22 episode shown over the summer. I'd assumed they'd skip some.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Unfortunately, some pretty major plot elements occur in the episode.

You know, that's too bad, Simon, because I bet they could pull off a really nice, noir storyline in pen and ink.

A moody b/w story would have been great. It's a puzzling decision by Warner Bros. They stood to make money from it. At the minute, there's (or there's going to be) Angel, CSI, Highlander, Xena, Battlestar Galactica (both versions) and the Stargate comic books. I can't see it why Veronica Mars couldn't become one as well.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sounds like internal politics at Warner.

Aaron Ashmore will be playing Jimmy Olsen on Smallville.

A friend of mine hilariously remarked, "Is there a new rule that only people that have been on Veronica Mars can play Jimmy Olsen?"
