With the exception of Felicity, I can’t think of a show that changed the theme song for the better. The theme music was actually very good, and it was a mistake to change it. Logan has gone through a lot, but he wasn’t a good person to start with. The best thing about season 1 was Veronica’s disillusionment with Logan and his kind. Logan represents the worst of Neptune. If he were in The Outsiders we would both be hoping for Dally and Ponyboy to take him out in a rumble. The biggest difference between Season 1 and Season 2 was Veronica’s return to the Socs. As an outsider in Season 1 it was easier to identify with her. In Season 2 her relationship with Logan cements her as an insider. Not only is she dating an 09er, she is dating the most despised 09er.

I just think it’s hard to measure up to the awesomeness of Season 1.

Season 2 was good, but not in the league of Season 1. There were too many red herrings and subplots in Season 2. The first two episodes of this season didn’t blow me away like I wish they would have, which is why I’m a little disappointed. The best scene so far was Veronica solving the opening “mystery” in six minutes.

I am loving more Mac. Dick? I’m ambivalent about. Sheriff Lamb is a regular this year too. He’s always good for a snide comment.

I’m very disappointed that you do not continue in sharing my enthusiasm for Veronica Mars. While we are only able to refer to the first two episodes of season three, I feel the show is doing very well in overcoming the difficulties of no longer being a high school drama. Some shows tend to struggle finding a new identity without the high school as a backdrop. I’m thinking of specifically Dawson’s Creek, which seemed to struggle finding places for their characters. Weevil is a character that I fear will be hard to place in Veronica’s new life. I'm looking forward to seeing how they will try. I can’t imagine Veronica continuing on with her relationship with Logan. Logan is not a good person. Logan is a great character, but do we really want a person like him dating our Veronica? Of course I don’t want Duncan back either. I’m still not sure he didn’t kill his sister. I like Wallace, but the title of the show is Veronica Mars. The focus must be on Veronica – and no one carries a show better than Kristen Bell. Wallace has had more than enough screen time. You omitted the best part of the new season – More Mac. How can you not love Mac? Also I’m pleased that the mystery is picking up from episode 16 from last year. I really hope that George Michael appears again, I just hope he isn’t the rapist. “I don’t care what they say about you Veronica Mars – You Rock”]]> It would appear that I’m forced to play the role of the young contrarian.
