I’ve been asked to blog about Veronica Mars, so here goes.

I still enjoy the show, but I’m not feeling the level of insane love like I have the past two seasons for one reason – Logan. They’ve given him nothing to do this year. He hasn’t even had that much dialogue. All he does is sort of look sad and quiet and mopey.

His mom committed suicide, his good-for-nothing, abusive dad was murdered after murdering his girlfriend, the other girlfriend was raped – he has plenty to be depressed about. But I still miss the Logan of yesteryear. The smart-ass bad boy that you just can’t help but like. Who always had a snappy comeback for every situation. They need to bring that Logan back. That Logan and his relationship with Veronica is the main reason that I love the show so much.

Wallace has been light on the scenes too, although watching him and Logan go toe-to-toe as guard/prisoner was good. And whatever happened to Wallace’s mom? And the subplot with his dad? They’ve both just sort of disappeared off the face of the earth …

Also, the subplot with Keith and Kendall and the Fitzpatricks was kind of out there, too. I never got the whole Fitzpatrick subplot last year. I thought it was one too many red herrings about the bus crash.

But Weevil returns this week, which is reason to celebrate. 🙂 Now, if they can just give him some scenes with Logan and Wallace …

Honestly, I don’t want to get too attached to the show this year. It’s only been given a 13-episode commitment, and Veronica and Logan are going to break up at some point around episode 6. If it ends with Veronica and Logan on the outs, well, I don’t know what I’ll do.

I just have to hope that the ratings are good and that Rob Thomas, the creator/producer, is as smart as his characters about where he ends things.

What about you? Are you still loving the show? Inquiring minds want to know …

Watched Heroes again this week.

Still loving it, particularly Hiro, who managed to convince his friend that he wasn’t nuts and can actually teleport himself through time and space. Using the comic book as a guide was really cool, too. Whoever does the art for the show deserves a big thumbs-up.

The two of them are so going to meet up with the split-personality stripper. I can’t wait. 🙂

The telepathic cop had a little more to do this week, which was cool, and we finally got a glimpse of Sylar, the baddie. Well, not much of a glimpse, but we know that dude is powerful. It’ll be interesting to see how the heroes come together to defeat him. If that, in fact is the plot hook this season.

I sort of hope they do it like Buffy and have one major villain a season. That’s the best way to do a show like this. Have the heroes beat the baddie in May as a reward to the fans and then start fresh again in September. I’m so over shows like Lost that haven’t answered questions they started with two years ago.

And the ending with the cheerleader … I won’t spoil it for those of you who haven’t seen it, but yikes! It was a total, total shock. Just when I think TV can’t surprise me anymore something like that happens.

Until next week …
