Hilarious...and I almost used that pic too until I found the one that said Snark on it.

"Annoy, tiny blonde one...annoy like the wind" is one of my favorite Logan quotes.

You've got good taste CM. :thumbup:

Surprise
"Meanwhile "Veronica Mars" is also looking to be in trouble. The CW has only committed to 13 episodes this season, not the regular 22, though if it does well then expect it to get those remaining nine pretty quickly. Creator Rob Thomas says "If we're struggling now in our third year, I don't imagine that the fervor of our fans and the very kind response from the press is going to buy us another year. I think we're actually in a make-or-break time now. I think we need to come on in this new time slot and do well".

The other big change is unlike the first two seasons that featured an overall season-long mystery, Season Three will feature three different mini-arcs with each arc played without interruption or repeats during their separate storylines. The season kicks off with a nine episode story, then a seven, then a six."

What kind of ratings does this show get?? I've honestly got no idea what channel or time it is on. Network TV??

Where did that come from? I actually read earlier that it was a full season committment, but they are reserving the right to cut it to 13.

I hope it blows up on the CW. Most underrated show on TV.



Nez, it only has about 3 million viewers, poor ratings and was on UPN...terribly placed, scheduled, etc. However, it gets a lot of critical acclaim and is a great show. Even with poor ratings, it was picked up for the new CW network (combining UPN and WB into one network).

It's getting Smackdown type ratings. Ugh. That's not gonna bode well for this show. Smackdown is a horrible brand by the way.

It's ok...it had two awesome seasons, and at least one more.

Arrested Development had the same kind of issues...brilliant show, terrible marketing and scheduling by the network.

would anyone be willing to burn season 2 for me? I'd be more than happy to sends blanks/postage - we just finished up season 1 on our anniversary trip and my wife is getting impatient for season 2

definitely an underrated show - i first caught wind of it last summer when I didn't have cable for a time and UPN was one of the stations that came in - wife used to make fun of me for liking it - but now she gets it

we are both trying to convert people by lending out the season 1 DVDs

hopefully this show makes it - stinks knowing that two of the shows I enjoy most (deadwood and VM) could be gone fairly quickly

Good for you!!! I converted Abomb...I will convert others.


Someone should be able to get you season two...maybe Abomb when he gets back from NY. I know the VM jones...I'm having it for season three myself....I wonder if I can hire Rob Thomas to write me some personal VM episodes whenever the show goes off the air so I don't go into withdrawls...he'll be a busy guy.

I freely admit I am a VM cultist. She gives great homily.

Is that like grits?? I've seen that stuff in the grocery store.
