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

This week's podcast. It's very good, if I do say so myself.

It is very good, and it was much more informative than the podcasts usually are, with you and Kelley (and the other people??) guiding it.

Listen to it, y'all.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am really not liking the trend of Veronica and Keith not actually figuring anything out, just being along for the ride as events unfold and the truth is revealed to them. When the MotW is as weak as this one was, I lose faith that the arc will have a satisfying resolution.

I thought this was the best episode of the season.

Why did you think the MotW was weak, -t?

Because books.

I really enjoyed this week's episode. I will say it felt a bit disconnected from time to time because there was so much going on, but it felt like the old VM. Yay!

I was pleasantly surprised to actually get to see Mac and Logan having a life without Veronica, and I don't mind at all if something happens with Logan and Parker. I like Parker, and I like that Logan is lifting himself out of his funk. I also appreciate the fact that he does have a nice side, and Veronica is sometimes the last one to notice it.

I still don't know who killed the dean, and I don't particularly care, but I was out of my chair, eyes boggling, when Lamb was hit. Did not expect that (but I also don't read any of the interviews or casting stuff, so I had no idea he was looking elsewhere for work). Keith as sheriff again has awesome possibilities, and while I will miss MM, I bet (as others have said) there's at least some stuff that could come out about Lamb posthumously.

From the neurologist reveal on I was waiting for someone to suggest that it was a suicide dressed up as murder so the family could collect the insurance. Keith saying "whoever did it did him a favor" and then apparently not considering that he aranged it himself just seemed more obtuse than I think of Keith as being.

I finally caught the episode last night, and don't have anything to add, other than "WOW."

Could they bring Wallace along too, so that he gets a little more screen time? Much as I love the character, he's turning into what's-his-name from the first few seasons of SMALLVILLE.

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

Hey, could someone explain Wallace's "Dorothy says you're the favourite sheriff among all the wizards" (paraphrased) joke to me? Someone was ranting about how it was a homophobic joke and unworthy of Wallace, etc., and I was all, "buh?"

And did Michael M really go online after the episode aired and tell his fans how sad and disappointed that TPTB had decided to write off his character? 'Cause if he did... wow, that's kind of unprofessional, innit?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I don't know the exact reason here, but I'm pretty sure "friend of Dorothy" means "homosexual." Which seems a pretty obscure reference for an 18-yr-old basketball star/engineering major, but definitely not out of character.
