Yeah, Mac! Oh, boy. This is one awkward conversation with Piz. I don't feel it between Veronica and Piz at all. Yuh-oh. Logan & Veronica - and Logan was just with another girl . . . oh, oh, oh. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Trainwreck, here we come.

That's what comes of naming them. Poor researcher-guy. Wow. she returned the check. It was when he talked about the monkey handing him the banana as he was leaving that did it. Well, either that or the fact that the monkey was also a "Back-up". ;D It might work, I mean, he so obviously likes her and now she knows that - the look on her face as he left when Logan brought her food showed us that she finally got hit with the clue bat. But I dunno. They don't really . . . . spark, in my eyes. On the other hand, he does have some good snark and he's not stupid, which is always good in Veronica's eyes. Mmmmmmm, yes! Very nice. I really liked that whole scene. Keith using his story, working it so nicely. And then "that why you put this song on, Keith?" Nice parallel to Veronica becoming more "known" too. I keep thinking she's going to run into more situations where the folks she's trying to scam already know she's that "detective girl". A nice significant line, I think, even if Landry turns out not to be the guilty party. It's gonna be oh so very messy. And terribly entertaining to watch as it all goes horribly horribly wrong. ;D

now mind you I am a meat and potatoes kind of Guy , but seeing V and Mac pose naked with those signs would have gotten me closer to becoming a vegitarian than I ever have.

I liked it. I thought it was a very good ep. Really like the kid (Bronson?) who likes Mac. Even liked Piz a bit more, but not for Veronica of course. Not surprised at next week tho...but a bit like Ross and Rachael and the "but we were on break" excuse. I'm really liking Mac's new guy. I've been liking Piz pretty much right from the start - he's got a quietly warped sense of humor that I appreciate - but . . . I'm just not seeing it working well with him and V in a romantic way. Hmmmm.

Maybe I was the only one to notice but when parker walked into the room and told mac someone is here to see you, when she sat up and smiled she had this amazing "Willow" look. The smile the way her eyes lit up, it just embodied Willow to me in every way. I had to rewind it to show michelle, she just shrugged, but It hit me as to how much she does remind me of season 1,2,3 Willow, just too damn cute. I like what they are doing with Parker. Making her a real person, like Matthew said. She's just such a fun contrast to Veronica and Mac. Forcing them to actually interact with people! Gasp! ;D Oh, I don't really care about V and L being together or not - other than loving angst, because I'm a sick puppy. It might work with Piz, but first Veronica needs to look at him with different eyes. On the other hand, I could totally get behind a Veronica and Wallace thing too. I tell ya, that's one advantage of being a hard-core slasher. None of my pairings are ever gonna be canon, so it makes me more easy-going when it comes to on-screen ships. ;D Well, as long as the writing is good and the characterization is accurate.

Heck, they weren't even supposed to be posing for vegitarianism. All you'd have to do is not wear fur and you'd be doing fine.

I am sorry to say this but I would not have been opposed to VIZ paring, I am just over V and L not being able to get on the same page for very long, if not Piz then someone else. I know I am in the minority on this. I'm with you, actually. For my part, I'm not opposed to a VIZ pairing (is that what the hip kids are calling it?). God forbid Veronica becomes attracted to a decent-looking, less complicated guy...at least for the time being. Having said that, I'm not exactly in favor of VIZ either; I'm just looking for something interesting. The tempestuous, weeks-on, weeks-off relationship might be realistic for many 18-19 year old couples, but from a storytelling standpoint I find it wearisome. If Rob Thomas wants to break them up, just do that and stick with it for a while. Too many breakups and reconciliations will render the big relationship moments meaningless. I found Mac's budding relationship far more interesting because it was new and different. This can be done a lot more often, IMO...because Rob Thomas has created a universe with several interesting and likable characters. He'd do well to take a bit of the load away from Veronica and focus more on the ensemble. P.S. Hey, lookee here! I managed to get all the way through this post without expressing my extreme annoyance that every supporting character had things to do except Wallace. I'm a team player.

Yep, yep, yep, yep. Trainwreck, here we come. Well I don't fault Logan for being with someone else - they were broken up and Logan sure didn't look like he enjoyed that blowjob very much but I have a feeling he's going to try and hide it. And that will trigger the veronicater and angst and bring on the Piz. Sigh! Still - this was done well. This is how people do act during a breakup. Unhappy, trying to hook up, reconciling. Very well done.

Leo, Duncan and now we have Piz.

He was out there "looking" - not very happily - because a friend was urging him to. He got some and she didn't, but that's about the only difference. Well, and that in the end, Veronica was the one who came to Logan to get back together . . . . And heck. Promos can be liars. The angst next week might end up coming from a totally different source than Beach!Girl.

Well - I'm against it, even though I know it's probably coming. Still - Rob wants Logan and Veronica to be up, down, up, down. He thinks that's the way the relationship should be so it's not poor Logan's fault. Hee! I'm against the Viz but I had no problems with the show last night. Everything flowed smoothly, in fact, I loved the episode. Well done, recalling season 1 themes of animal recovery, funny, angsty and stepping into the Dean mystery. I thought Mac and Parker were terrific. Loved each of them, and honestly enjoyed every moment of it.
