Oh, y’all.  I’m so sad.

I am totally and completely obsessed with Veronica Mars.  Obsessed, I tell you.

I hate to admit that this is a new development.  I don't watch CW shows (well, I used to watch Gilmore Girls.   I liked the way they talked.  Every time Lorelei opened her mouth, it was like a riddle that needed solving.  But then Lorelei slept with Christopher, and if I cannot have my Lorelei/Luke banter, well, I'm outta there).  But VM looked halfway decent, so I got the first disc from our public library.

A week and a half later, my sister is as obsessed as I am, we've bought both the first and second seasons, and I'm two episodes away from the season two finale.

This was so not the time to get a new addiction.  For one thing, I'm right in the middle of exams.  Not that I would do all that much studying anyways--I'm one of those people most people hate because I read what I'm supposed to read, pay attention in class, do my homework, and then don't study at all and still make As and Bs--but still.  I might have done some had I not been spending every non-class, non-work waking hour ingesting this show.  It's seriously sucked my soul away.

But what's much worse...season 3 is still on.  As in, returned from a hiatus tonight.  And I can't watch it.  There's no way I'm letting myself start watching now, not with how much I've missed.  And so I'll have to wait until season 3 is over -- and then comes out on DVD in order to catch up!  I'm dying here!

And on top of all that...

I'm in love with Logan Echolls.

Hehe, isn't VM wonderful? :D I love it quite a bit, myself, though I managed to start watching it the summer after season one, when it was all nice and convenient (otherwise I would have been doing the exact same thing as you are right now--I'm horrible :p). I'm afraid I...can't exactly share your Logan!love--he and I have reached this point where we co-exist, and it is good, but...yeah, anyway. Eee, s2 finale :O The one that Okay, and without spoiling you. But VM is awesome, yay for more people getting into it :D

...and hopefully for ratings/potential that = non-cancellation? that may be a pipe dream, though :(

It's seriously one of the best shows I've ever seen, and I'm picky about my tv. I'm jealous that you got the actual experience of watching it as it aired...I'm pretty depressed that I'm never going to get to do that.

I was really really surprised by my own Logan obsession--I hate jackasses, and, as much as I love him, that's what he is. I will admit that though I thought he was wonderfully snarky before this, the moment I fell in love with him was when he opened that closet and I saw those belts hanging there. I just knew, and I started bawling my eyes out. It explained so much....

Anyways, as for the S2 finale--I was so incredibly shocked and upset! I adored Beaver--he had such sad eyes and I always just wanted to hug him and make everything better.

Ah, well. What can you do?

VM is a very, very awesome show :D Of course, now RT is getting desperate and bowing way too much to network/rating demands (eg. the last few eps of s3 have no long mystery arc. it's depressing. and awful :(), so maybe it's time anyway *sigh*

LOL, ah, yes, the woobie-belt scene. I think that the majority of the Logan fangirls started there :P I actually didn't start to even half-like him until far later; but RT seems to like doing stuff like that with Logan's characterization--making him a complete jackass, then slowly "redeeming" him/making everyone *understand* him somehow, then repeating all over again :P It amuses me; I no longer hate him like I sometimes did in S2, but that's sort of me over him now.

Oh, Cassidy--I *know*. Of course, the downside of watching as the show is on is the rampant spoilers/speculation that goes on, and which practically shoved poor Cassidy in my face before the finale. But I was very upset :(

The same thing happened to me...I had no interest in it. None. Whatsoever. Then my friend lent me the season one DVD and said I should just watch a few episodes, just give it a try...and of course I was hooked. I ran right out and bought the second season. I can't watch season 3 because I don't get CW (very primitive TV arrangement here)...and I'm dying to! I'm in love with him too...and I think at my age that is approaching creepy.

I'm finding out that more and more people are watching it. I know that the audience is building slowly, but I feel like it is building steadily, so I hope they decide to give it another chance next season--and that it pays off in the long run.

And I'm glad to know that someone else understands my agony--I'm tempted to buy the episodes on iTunes or Amazon or something, except that that would be a waste of money when I'm just going to buy the DVDs the day they come out. Oh, well. Perhaps this will give me a much-needed lesson in patience.

Logan is irresistible--I don't blame you in the slightest for being in love with him!

Well, that was strange...I guess I wasn't logged in. Anyways....
