Joss fanboys over Veronica Mars.

it is amusing to me that it's taken this long for Joss to find and gush over a cult hit on a teeny network. hopefully this will convince more Whedonverse fans to check out the show. if the stunt-casting of Aly Hannigan didn't work, maybe Joss gushing will.

is there even anyone left on my flist who hasn't given this show a try? even if you tried it and found it wasn't your thing, it still counts that you watched. hmmm...you probably wouldn't tell me if you haven't, huh? oh well.

I don't think anyone on my FL would dare speak out against VM. They would be in "discussion" with me for so long it wouldn't be worth it!

[maidofawesome.livejournal.com]

Link doesn't work. :(

I've watched VM twice now, and after the second time, count me in as a fanatic. It's such an enjoyable show. I've already started plugging it to my friends, although god knows when it'll hit these shores...

I must start making VM icons this weekend.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

that's weird. maybe there was just a lot of traffic then.

icons! yay!

[maidofawesome.livejournal.com]

I went to the site and found it there. Cool! They quoted it on one of my HP sites, too, and loads of people were like 'Hmmm, I should start watching VM...' *g*

[ubervixen.livejournal.com]

I feel so left out. I tried it and I just didn't like it :-(

[meghatron.livejournal.com]

Define "tried." One episode? Two? Watched it out of order? Only saw the pilot?

Details, please. ;)

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

yeah. what banfennid said. did you watch an ep out of order? or the pilot? more than one ep?

honestly, i think this show is one that needs to be watched from the beginning to truly appreciate the characters. and this is very much a character driven show.

[crimson-dew.livejournal.com]

I'm still waiting for a French channel to pick up the series... I signed the petition and everything!

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

not that i encourage that kind of thing *cough*, but you could dl.

[crimson-dew.livejournal.com]

Not that I condone this kind of thing either *cough*, but Del did and we've watched the 4 first episodes. I really like it so far. XD

[glow-boy.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen it yet. I hope it does get shown over here eventually, it does sound good.

[kestratroi.livejournal.com]

If it doesn't make it to TV here before I get a bigger hard drive, I'll burn you some DVDs of the show. At the moment, I can't burn more than one episode per DVD, and that seems like a bit of a waste. Last I heard it was going to be on LivingTV, but who knows how long that will take?

What did you think of Lost, btw?

[glow-boy.livejournal.com]

The first two episodes were very good. Very impressive. I liked the way they set things up and the scenery (and the people) *g* were beautiful. I'll definitely watch next week. I'll just have to see if they can keep the quality up.

[kestratroi.livejournal.com]

The quality does stay at the same level throughout. I've seen the rest of the series already, and quite enjoyed it. I look forward to seeing if they actually find any answers to the mysteries next season.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

i think you will really like it.

[glow-boy.livejournal.com]

From everything I've heard, I'm pretty sure I will. :)

[paksenarrion2.livejournal.com]

*raises hand*

I haven't tried it yet, mainly because I keep forgetting it is on.

Plus, they are rerunning ever season of The Amazing Race on GSN. It is on every night, so that is another hour of TV that I have been sucked into.

[cindywrites.livejournal.com]

This! I watched it once (an atypical episode from what I understand, in which Veronica tries to save rich boy from a cult which mostly isn't). I liked it fine. I am pathologically incapable of remembering to tune in.

Wednesday night, I found it at 8:52. It's like a sickness, Buffy. I would watch it, or at least give it a go, if I could remember to do so at the right times. I just can't.

[cindywrites.livejournal.com]

The above doesn't count as a spoiler, does it?

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

no. sunlit5 posted a casting spoiler for the upcoming season. season one stuff is pretty much fair game in these parts. ;)

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

like i told paks, this show really is one that needs to be watched from the beginning. it's too much of a character driven show to just jump in the middle(which is what you did with that ep. it was number 9.)

i heartily recommend that you give it a try when the dvds come out. set your TiVo to record the new series and then get the dvds when they come out in october. you won't be disappointed. i promise.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

you should have hopped on the faithx5 dvd bandwagon. ;)

TAR? *ptooey* reality shows. let us never speak of them again.

[such-jaunt.livejournal.com]

if it ever comes to the Uk you sooo know im going to watch it lol one of the things i love about you is that you like all the shows i like so i know if you love a show its for me :)
ps Lost started here yesterday and i watched all 3 episodes back to back lol :D

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

ha! good to know. Lost didn't win any love with me with their season finale and the way they handled the whole season. VM is a million times the show lost is.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

yeah, i know. i'm keeping my journal spoilerfree though.

[sunlit5.livejournal.com]

Eep sorry.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

no problem. i just screened your comment so someone doesn't get accidentally spoiled.

[hambam.livejournal.com]

Hey, who is the one who has the eps on a comp or CD-Rs...?

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

faithx5 made quite a few sets. i don't know if she's still doing it. there is a comm dedicated to bringing in new fans and i posted about it a few entries ago. if you're interested...

[hambam.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...I think I've got the main plot lines covered in terms of which eps I've seen already. The finale is on a tape somewhere around here. I will just buy the DVDs in October. :)

[helygen.livejournal.com]

*raises hand*
I haven't seen it yet. If I don't catch it on TV over here then I'll order the DVD box set (assuming there is or will be one) because I'm itching to find out what has you so fired up about it *g*

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

is your dvd player region free? because the dvds come out october 11th. :)

living tv has supposedly bought the rights to the show, but who knows when they'll show it.

[helygen.livejournal.com]

Yes, we have a region free player :)

One way or the other, I will catch up with this phenomenon! *g*

[foxant10.livejournal.com]

well, i tried it and just couldn't get into it. lost my interest. bored me. etc, etc and etc. :D

then again, i think i've been watching maybe three tv shows since last year so maybe it's not the show. maybe it's me.

yes, i did just say "it's not you... it's me."

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

bored you?! this coming from someone who watches Smallville(and not for the HoYay like every other Smallville fan) and One Tree Hill. not to mention the tripe that is Desperate Housewives. *shakes head* some people...

i would say that you should try again, but you don't dl and i can't let my dvds out of my sight until i get the official copies in my hot, little hands. this show is a must watch from the beginning. at least in my opinion.

you like mysteries though. so i don't know why you wouldn't like this show.

[mfnlaw.livejournal.com]

Bwah! You and I are of one mind....not a bad thing! I said much the same on my LJ.

You still get the toasters, though.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

yay toasters!!!


*smooooooch* to you.

[snuzeggy.livejournal.com]

OK, I´ll admit I haven´t seen it, and probably won´t. I have no control over the remote in my house, and take off too often for other countries where *gasp* Veronica Mars does not exist. Well, and we have no TV here so it might exist but I wouldn´t know. Still, it sounds good, and someday I might sit in a bean bag with Sarah and give it a try. There is hope for me yet!!

[(Anonymous)]

I haven't seen it, but that's because it's not on over here. I promise that when it comes out on DVD I shall rent it & watch it.

[evilmastermind.livejournal.com]

Ok, so, I decided to finally follow your advice and watch VM. And OMJ this is so cool! I've only seen the first 8 episodes so far, but I'm loving it! I need to see what happens next.

Also, I'm SUCH a Veronica/Logan shipper. Oh. Dear. And I simply adore Logan. *melts*

So, THANK YOU! Your talking about it made me want to see it, and once more, you were right. ;) *smooch*

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

YAY!!! *takes one more person off of her "convert list"*

you haven't even gotten to the really good stuff yet. ;)

[evilmastermind.livejournal.com]

consider crimson_dew converted as well. I'll be showing her the first episodes tonight. ;)

you haven't even gotten to the really good stuff yet. ;)
*downloads like mad*

[egoboy1.livejournal.com]
