That happens to me a lot when I write. I get so attached to a placeholder name or title I just end up using it.

Art Crawl!!!
Watched the deleted scenes this morning and I'm a little bit sad that the storyline with Wallace and Mac didn't work out - because I remember how much we all wanted to see them and they were just never in an episode. (I wonder if they could have played out that story over several episodes instead of having it in one.)

I'm watching season 3 and have just gotten past the episode where the Take Back the Nighters cop to faking the rapes. Glurgh. What bad storytelling.
I've loved Principal Begley Jr. and Patty Hearst as a...Hearst! Gotta love that woman's sense of humor and self-effacement.
I remember comments made here when I could not get the episodes online. If I recall correctly, there was something of an agreement that this wasn't such a great season. Am I disremembering that?
I'm finding VM's moralizing a bit tedious and the primary arc not at all interesting. But there are small moments and minor characters likable.

Am I disremembering that?
you are not. it was my least favorite of the three. Veronica didn't have a whole lot of redeeming qualities for me and i hated how they dragged Logan's character through facets that were not at all appealing.
we could have done without the new characters too, i thought. they served no real purpose.

Yeah, I've got to ditto all of that tiggy.
Ah well. I'm committed now. Must plow through to the end.
Sigh. But in a way good. Now I won't be sad when I get to the last of the eps.

the last two eps made me remember why i fell in love with the show actually. most people weren't happy about how it ended, but i thought it was perfect.
fyi best buy has seasons one and two on sale for $14.99 if someone doesn't have them already.

Just saw this in another thread, thought I'd post it here--
Attention Veronica Mars fans. Amazon is selling the first two seasons for the ridiculously low price of 15 bucks each. They're normally like $60.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Wait, that's it?
I just finished watching Disc 5, and I was all, "Oh, one more disc to go! I wonder how they'll end it." And then I went to find out how many more eps I had.
None. None more.
Damn. Because that last episode rocked a lot.

It really did. At least it went out well.
The special features on the last disc are great, though! A couple hours' worth, right there.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I went ahead and left it in my queue. I'll be watching it within the next week, I'm sure.
